The three main fund ratings agencies have combined to produce a checklist for funds which also shows how each agency differs in the way it weights the various components of a fund’s overall performance.
The checklist (see below) was presented at Fund Executives Association Ltd (FEAL) briefings in Melbourne and Sydney last week. The agencies’ chief executives – Warren Chant of Chant West, Jeff Bresnahan of SuperRatings and Chris Page of Selecting Super (Rainmaker) – described their processes in Sydney on Friday. 
The $355 billion AustralianSuper has acquired a $1.4 billion European industrial and logistics portfolio, owned by OMERS real estate subsidiary Oxford Properties. The nation’s biggest fund is targeting a $7.5 billion valuation for the venture and $35 billion allocation in European and UK region before 2030, supported by its biggest international office in London with 121 employees.
