East Riding Pension Fund
East Riding Pension Fund was established in 1996 to administer Local Government Pension Scheme benefits for employers and members across the East Riding of Yorkshire. The fund operates under the oversight of East Riding of Yorkshire Council as administering authority. The fund deploys capital into private equity, UK real estate and infrastructure. Confirmed holdings include the Border to Coast UK Real Estate Fund, Quinbrook Renewables Impact Fund II and the KMG GB Strategic Land Fund. It also holds public equities such as Alphabet, Amazon and BAE Systems. Geographic exposure centers on the United Kingdom with additional commitments to United States timberland through Campbell Global and French private equity via Access Capital Partners. The fund reports 7707 million USD in assets. It maintains no additional offices beyond its Goole headquarters. East Riding participates in the Border to Coast pool that began transitioning assets in July 2018. In May 2025 Ian Sandiford spoke at the UK Pensions Investment Summit on private markets deployment on behalf of Border to Coast and East Riding interests. East Riding sits as one of eleven founding partner funds in the Border to Coast Pensions Partnership, a structure that pools investment management across multiple LGPS schemes while each fund retains its own liability and governance responsibilities.
