Director General - Investment Affairs Message
Protecting the citizens’ rights and securing their future over the consecutive generations is regarded as a fundamental task of the pension systems around the world, within its role in pension contributions management and their investment to build sustainable pension system, thus our commitment in Abu Dhabi Pension Fund within the implementation of our wise leadership vision to provide decent life and social wealth to our citizens after retirement.
The Fund adopts wise investment policies that depend on long term sustainable investment. Moreover, our financial strategy relied on investing high quality diverse portfolios in both markets; local and international markets to gain the maximum possible values. On the other side, the investment decision making process is based on professional foundations which depend om managing the investment according to the best international practices while maintaining the wise management standards, institutional governance and transparency.
During the past year, the Fund achieved numerous fruitful successes and outcomes, due to the unlimited support and confidence of the wise leadership, and the well-examined adopted investment plans to increase the value of the financial resources, as manifested in all the investment indicators that show the increase in the financial assets annually, which in its turn enhances the financial solvency and increase our ability to fulfil our obligations towards the registered citizens in the Fund, particularly after the remarkable annual increase in the number of pensioners according to our latest Statistics Report.
Accordingly, we invest such success in seeking the achievement of more accomplishments under the new Fund strategy (2022 - 2026) which adopt the best practices to harvest more successes to compete with the inspiring international success stories of the UAE as a destination for growth, investment and comprehensive economic development in the region.
Finally, if we, in the Abu Dhabi Pension Fund, believe in the importance of safe financial investment to provide a better life for pensioners and beneficiaries, we also believe in the inevitability of investing in human capital, especially our cadres in the Fund, without whose continuous efforts we would not have been able to reach this outstanding level of performance, and to whom I extend my sincere thanks, the Fund's team, especially in the investment sector, for all their efforts over the past year, and we still have a lot to achieve together.
