  • South China Sea Overview
    ‹ Countries South China Sea Last Updated: February 7, 2013 (Notes) full report Overview The South China Sea is a critical world trade route and a potential source of hydrocarbons, particularly natural gas, with competing claims of ownership over the sea and its resources. Stretching from Singapore and the Strait of Malacca in the southwest to the Strait of Taiwan in the northeast, the South China Sea is one of the most important trade routes in the world. The sea is rich in resources and holds significant strategic and political importance. The area includes several hundred small islands, rocks, and reefs, with the majority located in the Paracel and Spratly Island chains. Many of these islands are partially submerged land masses unsuitable for habitation and are little more than shipping hazards. For example, the total land area of the Spratly Islands encompasses less than 3 square miles. Several of the countries bordering the sea declare ownership of the islands to claim the surrounding sea and its resources. The Gulf of Thailand borders the South China Sea, and although technically not part of it, disputes surround ownership of that Gulf and its resources as well. Asia's robust economic growth boosts demand for energy in the region. The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) projects total liquid fuels consumption in Asian countries outside the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) to rise at an annual growth rate of 2.6 percent, growing from around 20 percent of world consumption in 2008 to over 30 percent of world consumption by 2035. Similarly, non-OECD Asia natural gas consumption grows by 3.9 percent annually, from 10 percent of world gas consumption in 2008 to 19 percent by 2035.

  • Introductory Note
    Introductory Note: Section 58 of the New Zealand Superannuation and Retirement Income Act 2001 requires that the Guardians must invest the Fund on a prudent, commercial basis, and in a manner consistent with best-practice portfolio management. The Guardians have determined that this requires broad diversification of investments. The Fund’s investment strategy includes holding investments benchmarked to global market indices. On 30 June 2011, the Fund’s portfolio held over 6000 listed companies, providing diversification across most of the world’s countries and industries. The Table below sets out our direct exposure to listed companies, by country of exposure. Country of exposure is defined as location of the ultimate global parent's place of incorporation, except in the case of tax haven countries, where we instead look to the place of business for the headquarters of the ultimate global parent. The Fund also has indirect exposure to other companies through total return swaps linked to market indices and through investment in pooled funds. As the Fund increases in value, both the number of securities and the average size of each holding tend to increase.

Background The importance of Corporate Governance and Proxy Voting have long been recognised. The Cadbury Report in 1992, commissioned in response to continuing concern about companies’ standards of financial reporting and accountability and to controversy over directors’ pay clearly stated that “given the weight of their votes, the way in which institutional shareholders use their power to influence the standards of corporate governance is of fundamental importance.” In January 2004, Paul Myners’ report to the Shareholder Voting Working Group re-iterated this.
