Energy Super has published its first manager report as a merged fund.

Energy Super's 2011 annual report provides a first glimpse of the merged entity's manager allocations.

As at 31 June 2011, the $3.8 billion fund had its largest Australian equities mandates with Balanced Equity Management (BEM) and JCP Investment Partners, having a mandate of $252 million in the BEM Core Fund and $257 million in the JCP Core Fund.

In international equities, Energy Super's largest mandate is with AMP Capital Investors, which manages 15 per cent of the portfolio, or $577 million in the Future Directions Core International Share Fund.

In fixed income, the largest mandates were given to Perennial Investment Partners, which manages 7.3 per cent or $280 million, while PIMCO Australia manages 5.8 per cent or $222 million in its Global Bond Fund.

 
 

Energy Super also has a significant property mandate with QIC, which has $318 million of the fund's money in the QIC Property Fund.

Finally, the super fund has a large number of small exposures to alternative managers, with the largest mandate with Hastings Funds Management's Infrastructure Fund at $150 million, or 3.9 per cent of the total fund.

ESI Super and SPEC Super merged in April to form Energy Super.
