ISLAMABAD: The Employees’ Old-Age Benefits Institution (EOBI) investment portfolio reached Rs 691.91 billion as of February 28, with fixed-income instruments continuing to dominate its asset mix and income generation.
According to documents available with Wealth Pakistan, fixed-income assets account for Rs 592.12 billion, or 85.58 percent of the total portfolio. Within this category, Pakistan Investment Bonds (PIBs) form the backbone at Rs 540.35 billion, with accrued profit of Rs 49.61 billion. Corporate fixed income stands at Rs 2.16 billion.
This concentration reflects EOBI’s preference for safer, predictable income streams to support pension liabilities, with limited exposure to equities.
Equity holdings total Rs 41.24 billion (5.96 percent), including Rs 26.38 billion in available-for-sale equities and Rs 14.86 billion in held-for-trading shares.
Real estate constitutes the third component, with properties valued at Rs 42.36 billion and projects at Rs 16.20 billion, bringing total exposure to Rs 58.55 billion (8.46 percent).
For FY2025-26, total investment income is budgeted at Rs 78.89 billion. Between July 2025 and February 2026, actual income reached Rs 56.45 billion, exceeding the budgeted Rs 52.59 billion.
