03 Aug 2026
The Botswana Public Officers Pension Fund (BPOPF) has recorded a strong financial performance for the year ending March 2026, with its assets growing by 10 per cent despite a challenging global economic environment.
Speaking at a media briefing this morning, BPOPF Board Chairperson Ms Gaone Macholo said the performance demonstrates the fund’s commitment to prudent management, transparency and accountability to its members.
Ms Macholo said the fund navigated a difficult year characterised by geopolitical uncertainty and slower global market growth, but maintained stability through sound investment strategies.
She said the fund’s assets increased from P116.506 billion in 2025 to P128.337 billion in 2026, representing a 10 per cent growth.
Ms Gaone Macholo has attributed the fund’s positive returns for the year ending March 2026 to a diversified investment portfolio and strong risk management processes.
She said diversification enabled the fund to mitigate risks and remain resilient despite volatile global markets. She said BPOPF’s financial health has been strengthened by prudent investment decisions, effective governance and rigorous risk management.
Ms Macholo added that the fund maintained a strong funding ratio of 102.9 per cent, demonstrating its ability to meet both current and future obligations to members. ENDS
