Who is QIC?

About us

QIC commenced operations in 1989 and was formally established in 1991. Since then, we have grown to be one of the largest institutional investment managers in Australia, with 88 clients and $60.6 billion* in funds under management.

Our heritage as a government owned corporation has contributed to a culture that puts our clients first. We continually strive to find better ways to meet and exceed our clients' investment objectives. Our unique history of managing the total investment portfolio for very large clients has enabled us to deliver innovative investment solutions, which few other fund managers have been able to do.

Dynamic investment solutions

Today, QIC is a leading provider of dynamic investment solutions for superannuation funds and other institutional investors. We are experts at developing an in-depth understanding of our clients' investment goals, and creating and adapting tailored investment solutions that continue to perform over time.

Some dynamic investment solutions we've developed for our clients include:

  • A dynamic asset allocation process, which has positioned client portfolios to benefit from extreme market valuations.
  • Customised and cost-efficient inflation protection solutions where portfolio positions are constantly refined to reflect current market conditions and take advantage of opportunities.
  • Flexible and tailored currency overlay solutions, which allow funds to hedge their undesired currency exposures while helping to manage residual risks, including counterparty risk and fund liquidity. 


QIC House of Boutiques

As a house of highly specialised investment boutiques, we offer practical investment solutions across a wide range of asset classes, as well as strategic solutions at the whole-of-fund level. We continually innovate to meet our clients' changing objectives in the ever-evolving investment environment.

Our 'House of Boutiques' model provides investors with the focus, agility and client-alignment of a boutique with the backing of a large investment manager.
