Pensions

Customised investment accounts made up more than one-fifth of the pension’s $59.7bn PE portfolio.

Oregon’s private equity portfolio serves as a case study for the denominator effect’s impact.

The roughly $73bn institution is seeking greater clarity around valuations, fundraising and exits before returning to its usual pacing, CIO Rick Ramli tells PEI.

Foundations and endowments had the highest increase in relative exposure to the asset class, according to PEI’s half-year 2023 Investor Report.

The $173bn institution is offloading PE stakes via secondaries as it looks to deploy more capital into directs, global PE head Jim Pittman tells PEI.

This is the regulator’s third greenwashing-related lawsuit in the space of six months, following its crackdown on misleading ESG claims this year.

The launch of the strategy, which is focused on secondaries and co-investments, follows a change in Swedish pension regulation allowing higher allocation to alternatives.

The pension made at least 52 new PE commitments in 2022, bringing the total number of funds and projects in its portfolio to 456, per its latest annual report.

Government intentions and market expectations of the Mansion House reforms may not entirely be aligned.

The UK’s Mansion House Compact could unlock £50bn of additional financing and, more importantly, help the nation’s pension funds increase exposure to a critical asset class.
