Braintree (Mass.) Contributory Retirement System, with about $71 million in assets, hired Loomis Sayles to manage $10 million in a domestic fixed-income portfolio, said Jennifer Miller, retirement clerk. Funding came from cutting back the allocation to 1838 Investment Advisors, which still manages a $20 million U.S. bond portfolio for the fund.
