Cadbury adds hedge funds to pension portfolio
Chocolate maker Cadbury’s £1.96bn ($3.83bn) pension fund has added to its alternatives exposure with two new investments in hedge funds, according to online reports.
The pension fund split a hedge fund mandate of around 7.5% of the total portfolio between Blackstone and K2 Asset Management. Blackstone was awarded 5% and K2 2.5% of the £147m ($289m) mandate.
The new investments bring Cadbury’s alternatives exposure to just over 20%, with 5% invested in private equity and 8% in property. The new investments were funded from Cadbury’s equity allocation which was reduced from 50% to 36.5%.
