EPPI
EPPI was founded in 1997 as the Italian provident fund for industrial experts and graduate industrial experts. Paolo Bernasconi became president in June 2022 while Gianni Scozzai serves as vice president. The fund operates from its headquarters in Rome and participates in ADEPP and EMAPI. The pension fund allocates 9.2 percent of assets to private equity. Confirmed holdings include F2i SGR, Fondo Ania F2i, and F2i - Terzo Fondo per le Infrastrutture. It also maintains a joint venture stake in Fondo Fedora, a closed-end real estate fund focused on core Italian properties. Geographic exposure centers on Italy with additional holdings in global equities, bonds, and alternatives. Assets total approximately $2.25 billion. EPPI maintains service relationships with BNP Paribas Securities Services as custodian, Prometeia as investment advisor, and EY as auditor. In November 2024 the fund sponsored an event in Rome on the evolution of professional welfare. EPPI functions as a sector-specific pension vehicle rather than a diversified asset manager. Its mandate is limited to retirement and welfare services for industrial surveyors, with governance tied directly to the ADEPP association of private pension funds.
