Beyond Eurobonds, NSSF also recorded notable growth in other alternative and offshore investments.
Offshore assets rose by 145 percent to Sh2.6 billion, while private equity investments expanded by 120.7 percent to Sh7.3 billion.
Investments in Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs), which form part of pension funds’ alternative asset mix, increased by 70.7 percent to Sh1.58 billion.
The accelerated investment activity has been supported by a sharp rise in member contributions, which significantly boosted the fund’s asset base.
For large institutional investors such as pension funds, diversification is a key tool for managing long-term obligations while seeking sustainable growth.
