PensionDanmark is an active, contrarian, value orientated manager which aims to build a well-diversified portfolio with an attractive risk-return profile and good downside protection. They have a long-term focus and believe diversification, through effective portfolio construction, is fundamental in achieving their investment objective. The firm combines traditional investments in public markets with less-traditional alternative investments to diversify risk and harvest illiquidity premiums. A special focus area is alternatives with stable attractive cash flows. Approximately 30% of the portfolio is allocated to direct investments in infrastructure and renewable assets, real estate and direct lending. PensionDanmark manages the majority of their investments internally. Depending on the nature and complexity of the asset class, and whether they believe active management will add value, a smaller or larger part is outsourced to external managers.
