This year we celebrate 20 years of New Zealand Super. We speak to the fund's CEO, Matt Whineray, about the evolution of the fund throughout the years, do a deep dive into its strategic tilting program and cover responsible investing, AI and much more. Enjoy the show! Overview of Podcast with Matt Whineray, CEO of NZ Super on 20 years of the fund 01:00 NZ Super started investing in September 2003 and now has a 20 year track record 03:00 One of the key starting points was to get the risk position right and get the board to understand this position 04:30 The 20 year track record: the country is about $40 billion better off as a result of the creation of the fund 07:00 The fund invested in private equity only two years after the beginning. 8:30 The strategic tilting program; the philosophy behind it and the early days 14:00 There are times when you get tested and 2013 was one of those times 15:30 I borrowed this one from [AQR’s] Cliff Asness: ‘Don’t size a strategy so that when it goes wrong you are dead’. 18:30 The amount of risk that we allocate to our strategic tilting process is definitely the highest of all of our internal strategies 20:30 The strategic tilting program has evolved from trading once a month to trading every day, sometimes multiple times a day 22:00 Introducing the reference portfolio; the beauty about the reference portfolio is that there is real clarity about the decisions that are being made 26:00 Since inception the decision was made that we always hedge the reference portfolio 100 per cent back to NZ dollars, and that is one that is always debated at reference portfolio reviews 28:00 Managing NZ equities in-house 31:00 What else do we do internally?
