The university recently increased its allocations to domestic equity and intermediate-term fixed-income following a recommendation from its outsourced cio, which completed an annual strategic asset allocation review.
The fund is looking for opportunities to directly invest in companies based in the state as part of its plan to emphasize the state, identifying and developing new relationships with firms in the state, including emerging managers, as well as seeding strategies created in the state.
The system will consider asset allocation changes for one of its portfolios, shifting it toward global equity and emerging markets small-cap equity and away from international equity and domestic equity, at a meeting this week.
The university’s board of trustees voted against a proposal to divest from weapons manufacturers and other companies involved in the Israel-Hamas war last week.
