Brunel Pension Partnership launches asset management accord
0LGPS pool Brunel Pension Partnership (Brunel) has created an asset management accord to guide its relationships between its sub-fund managers.
The accord includes sections on Brunel’s 12 investment principles, communication, and innovation.
Mark Mansley, chief investment officer at the pool said: “The aim of the accord is to capture not only our expectations of managers, but also the spirit of what they can expect from us.
“The idea is that by putting this document together, we can address managers’ key concerns and help managers to understand what matters to us.
“It’s a proactive approach intended to equip managers to work with us more collaboratively and focus our dialogue with managers on the really important issues.”
Brunel is one of eight national pooled funds and will manage the investment of the pension assets for the funds of Avon, Buckinghamshire, Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Environment Agency, Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire, Somerset and Wiltshire.
