Evaluation of the growth of NAPSA’s investment portfolio from 2015-2020.
This study delved into the comprehensive evaluation of the growth trajectory of the National Pension Scheme Authority’s investment portfolio spanning the years 2015 to 2020. NAPSA, as a significant player in pension fund management within the designated period, has witnessed notable transformations in its investment strategies, reflecting on the overall growth of its portfolio. The research aimed to analyze this growth, focusing on three specific objectives: understanding the investment diversification patterns, assessing the performance of key investment sectors, and examining the impact of external factors on portfolio growth through regression analysis. The first objective entails an in-depth exploration of NAPSA's investment diversification strategies during the stated period. Through meticulous analysis, it uncovered the allocation patterns across various asset classes such as equities, fixed income securities, real estate, and alternative investments. This examination provided insights into the risk management practices adopted by NAPSA to optimize returns while mitigating potential risks. The second objective involved a comprehensive assessment of the performance of key investment sectors within NAPSA's portfolio. By employing appropriate financial metrics and benchmarks, the study evaluates the relative performance of sectors such as equities, bonds, and real estate. This assessment shaded light on the contribution of each sector to the overall growth of NAPSA's investment portfolio and identifies areas of strength and opportunities for improvement. The third objective employed regression analysis to examine the impact of external factors on the growth of NAPSA's investment portfolio. By identifying key macroeconomic variables such as GDP growth, inflation rates, interest rates, and exchange rate fluctuations, the study investigated their relationship with the portfolio's performance. Through regression modeling, it quantifies the influence of these external factors on portfolio growth and provides valuable insights for strategic decision-making. Overall, this study offered a comprehensive evaluation of the growth of NAPSA's investment portfolio from 2015 to 2020, addressing three specific objectives: investment diversification patterns, performance of key investment sectors, and the impact of external factors through regression analysis. The findings contributed to a deeper understanding of NAPSA's investment strategies, aiding in enhancing portfolio performance and ensuring long-term sustainability.
