Catholic Super has named the managers that were the strongest contributors to its annual performance, with small cap manager, Renaissance, the star performer.
In terms of total return Renaissance was the most outstanding performer with its small cap Australian equity portfolio returning 59.9 per cent. Chief investment officer of the fund, Tim Hughes, said there were many managers who made a contribution to the fund through either performance or style diversification, but named 12 managers that “materially contributed” to the fund’s performance. In Australian shares they were Cooper Investors, Acorn, Renaissance and BGI; in international shares, Marathon, Orbis and LSV; in infrastructure, ANZ Infrastructure Services; in absolute returns Quellos and Mesirow; and in currency Macquarie and Record. Catholic Super was the best performing fund measured by SuperRatings for the year to June.

Rest Super has built its private equity program around a deliberately selective approach to manager and deal selection, favouring a concentrated roster of external partners and proactively seeking out top PE firms rather than waiting for them to come knocking. Head of private markets Marina Pasika unpacks the program’s coming of age and what powered an asset class return more than double the peer average in the last financial year.
