Northumberland County Council Pension Fund

Northumberland County Council Pension Fund

Northumberland County Council served as the administering authority for the fund until April 2020. The pension scheme covered council staff and other participating employers under the LGPS framework in England and Wales. The fund maintained holdings across UK commercial real estate through Schroders and BlackRock pooled vehicles, plus infrastructure commitments to Pantheon Global Infrastructure Fund III, Antin Infrastructure Partners II, and Global Infrastructure Partners Fund II. It also participated in private equity via NB Crossroads Fund XVIII and Morgan Stanley Private Equity Fund of Funds. All positions sat within the United Kingdom and broader European and global mandates. The fund reported approximately 1,595 million USD in assets before the merger. It maintained memberships in the Local Authority Pension Fund Forum and Border to Coast Pensions Partnership. Service providers included Mercer as investment advisor and Northern Trust as custodian through 2020. The April 2020 merger transferred all assets and liabilities to Tyne and Wear Pension Fund, ending separate reporting status for Northumberland County Council Pension Fund.
