AP4 announces search for external equity mandates
Fjärde AP-fonden (the Fourth Swedish National Pension Fund) has, in the beginning of April, announced two external equity mandates in EU´s central public procurement database, Tender Electronic Daily.
Both mandates concern active management of Asian equities, where one mandate covers Japanese equities and the other Asian equities excluding Japan. The total value of assets to be invested, for the mandates combined, will be in the range of 500 to 600 MUSD. The mandates might be split between several managers.
The procurement of these active, external mandates is a part of Fjärde AP-fonden´s strategy to increase risk-adjusted excess return against the fund´s benchmark.
