MBABANE furthermore, the Fund’s total assets increased closing at E35.488
billion in June 2024 compared to E34.581 billion recorded in March 2024.
This translated to a growth of 2.6 per cent. The Fund has a strategic asset
growth performance of CPI plus 5 per cent on a three-year rolling period. An
amount of E220 million was invested in the 1st quarter of the year in Loans and
Government bonds.  The asset allocation of the Fund is in line with the
Investment Guidelines of the Fund and the Retirement Funds Act of 2005 of
Eswatini.
A total of 43 per cent of the fund’s assets are invested in Eswatini which is
higher than the statutory minimum requirement of 30 per cent of the total
portfolio set by the Financial Service Regulatory Authority (FSRA).  This,
however, is in line with the fund’s strategic objective of a 50 per cent
target in Eswatini, to increase economic growth and development.
