Dear University of Auckland,

My name is Samuel Vincent and I am hereby making a request for information in accordance with the Official Information Act 1982.

The information relates to the investments held by the University of Auckland Foundation. It is my understanding that the Foundation only invests in term deposits with New Zealand banks and commingled funds.

I understand that each investment manager in control of these commingled funds must provide to the Foundation, each quarter, their purchases and sales of securities over that quarter.

I am requesting the names of the companies in which the Foundation is invested, which are included in the SIPRI Top 100 arms-producing and military services companies 2015 list. I refer to both equities and corporate bonds held by the commingled funds in which the Foundation is invested.

For simplicity, I request that the company names be provided according to the commingled fund through which the Foundation is invested in these companies.

Any information you have available on the value of the Foundation's stake in these investments would be deeply appreciated. This forms part of my request but I am not asking for any calculations to be done.

Thank you so much for your assistance.

Yours faithfully,
Samuel Vincent
