Asset Owner:ATPHealthcare of Ontario Pension Plan (HOOPP)

3 responses to “HOOPPla! The balance sheet is an asset”

  1. Salvatore Manual Rodriguez

    Can I get a job at HOOPP? My pension from OMERS isn’t looking that good now. Why is it that one pension fund in Canada is doing everythng right and the rest of the pack are trying to play catch-up?

  2. Justin Time

    Mr. Keohane has transformed an investment fund that traditionally would invest directly in equities and bonds into a leveraged hedge fund through derivatives. As long as his counterparties stay solvent and there is no margin call on his “long term” options he is geared to outperform. I hope his board understand the full risks.

As the A$20 billion portfolio prepares to double in five years, Lee says future returns will depend increasingly on investors’ ability to “sweat the assets”.
