Emerging/Diverse Managers

A Texas-based pension plan made an emerging markets equity manager hire at this week’s investment committee meeting.

A Midwestern pension plan concluded its investment consultant search and graduated a fixed-income manager from its emerging manager program at today’s board meeting.

The upcoming search comes after the plan expanded its emerging manager utilization goals.

CEO Tiffany Donelson and Board Chair Kenneth R. Alleyne took time to participate in a question and answer on the Hartford-based organization’s diversity efforts within its $125 million investment portfolio.

The plan does not currently have an active small-cap firm after terminating the previous manager earlier this year.

A university based on the East Coast made a commitment to a new manager.
