Partnership

Approach

The Alaska Permanent Fund Corporation manages and invests the assets of the United States’ largest Sovereign Wealth Fund, the Alaska Permanent Fund, on behalf of current and future generations of Alaskans.

APFC’s investment model has been recognized globally for its ability to create and grow value on a sustainable basis for Alaska. The model is based on strong governance with expert board leadership, partnering with best-in-class asset managers, direct investing by world-class teams, and the ability to attract and retain top professional talent. Our structure and processes set APFC apart and provide our people and partners the support and autonomy required to be exceptionally agile and responsive in the global market.

PARTNERSHIP APPROACH

Working directly with partners – including private and public companies, banks, governments, pension funds and other sources and managers of capital – is at the heart of what we do. We identify and cultivate relationships with like-minded partners globally to broaden our investment reach and build success together, based on cooperation, trust, and transparency. Our investment approach combines world-class internal and direct investment teams with premier external managers who complement our internal capabilities. Our external partners offer access to well-researched investment opportunities and provide in-depth analysis, experience, and ongoing management services in markets we could not easily access directly. In turn, our partners value us as a highly knowledgeable investor and a trusted financial partner.
