Cullen Fund continues to bounce back

The New Zealand Superannuation Fund continues to claw its way back from the 22% investment losses reported at the height of the global financial crisis, posting a 17.4% return for the six months to December 31.  

The return is calculated on an after fees but before tax basis, and represents a 16.1% excess on returns achievable over the same period from Treasury bills.

The total size of the fund, after taxes, has risen to $15.964 billion, having fallen to $13.353 billion in June 2009, at the end of the 2008/09 financial year when absolute returns were 22.14% down on the previous year.
