Bayerischer Pensionsfonds
The Bayerischer Pensionsfonds was established in 1999 by the Free State of Bavaria. Its purpose is to accumulate assets that will cover future pension payments for state civil servants. The Bavarian State Ministry of Finance and for Homeland (StMFH) directs the fund while Deutsche Bundesbank executes investment mandates. Public equity holdings include positions in Enel, Eni, UniCredit, Mediobanca, Banco BPM, Prysmian, Poste Italiane and Snam. The portfolio also contains MSCI World and S&P 500 ETFs. Liquidity and cash management assets support short-term adjustments. All activity remains confined to Europe with primary exposure in Germany and Italy. The fund marked its 25th anniversary at an annual press conference in May 2024. Asset management and custody services are provided by Deutsche Bundesbank, Universal-Investment-Gesellschaft mbH, BNP Paribas and JP Morgan. No additional offices or professional headcount figures are disclosed.
