Increasing diverse representation across the investment industry starts long before companies start the hiring process. It starts with engaging young people in financial education and dismantling barriers that limit opportunities for diverse populations, including rising tuition costs. Read more about how the AIMCo Foundation for Financial Education is moving the needle on diversity in post-secondary institutions and beyond, in the Foundation’s latest Impact Report.

AIMCo is pleased to announce we have entered into an agreement to acquire the Kimberly Meat Company (KMC), Yeeda Station, and the Kimberly Property Portfolio (KPP), collectively, the Yeeda Aggregation in Western Australia. These assets deepen AIMCo’s investment in the sector and complement the recent purchase of the Yougawalla Pastoral Co in 2023. “We believe this acquisition gives us the opportunity to create a vertically integrated beef production and processing business in northern Australia," said Ben Hawkins, AIMCo's Executive Managing Director, Head of Infrastructure, Renewable Resources and Energy Transition.

AIMCo’s Kevin Bong showed his knack for explaining the intricacies of portfolio construction on the "Don’t Get Fired!" podcast: “There are many different parts and they come together like that perfect orchestra, where everything is fit for purpose and built to connect with each other.” His conversation with hosts Ashby Monk and Daniel de Faro Adamson offers great insights. Kevin is the Senior Managing Director, Chief Investment Strategist, and Head of Singapore at AIMCo.
In the land of asset owners, innovation is hard. Institutional investing—from its governance to delegations to IC decision-making—strongly favors known quantities, as those quantities fit neatly into the metrics asset owners often want and need. The joke among insiders is that when it comes to something new, asset owners want to be first in line... to be second in line. (Or, in my experience, tenth in line). They are looking for that Goldilocks entry point for new things: not so late that the benefits are already captured by the market, but not so early that they are taking career risks. And so, we at SLTI are always hunting for asset owner investors that, in the words of Henry Ford, "do not know what can’t be done." Because, like Mr. Ford, we'd also want to transform an industry and help asset owners improve performance for the benefit of their stakeholders and the world. This week, I have two new innovators for you. Take a listen, so you too can be first line to be 10th in line... Kevin Bong, Chief Investment Strategist of the Alberta Investment Management Corp. On our DGF Pod, Kevin explains the fund's new 'Multi-Model Model' of institutional investment, which is a client-centric approach that delivers everything everywhere (almost) all at once to 25 different portfolios. https://lnkd.in/gRsyZmtj Mark Steed, Chief Investment Officer of the Arizona Public Safety Personnel Retirement System. On the BNY Pod, we explore the forces driving organizations to innovate and the importance of decision-making frameworks. He also discusses a most awesome and innovative approach to testing forecasting skills on his team. https://lnkd.in/gS6sdmZU
