Concerns are mounting among senior figures at Auckland Council over delays in appointing an investment manager for the city's 1.3 billion dollar Future Fund

It was established at the end of last year, with the money from the council's sale of its remaining stake in Auckland Airport.

A memo shows contract negotiations for an investment manager are ongoing.
