Future Fund becomes one of Australia's largest institutional investors

With an extra $40 billion and three new government backed 'nation building funds' to look after, the Board of Guardians of the three-year-old Future Fund has rapidly become one of Australia's largest institutional investors. So how will around $100 billion of funds under its control be managed, especially given recent concerns about the transparency of large international sovereign wealth funds? To help us answer that question, we're joined in our Sydney studio by David Murray, chair of the board of the Future Fund.
