Colorado Fire & Police Pension Association, Englewood, put four finalists on a short list for an active domestic bond manager. BlackRock Financial Management, Lincoln Capital Management, PIMCO and Western Asset Management are candidates for the $150 million to $250 million mandate, said Scott Laughlin, investment analyst for the $2.2 billion fund. The association terminated its contract with Putnam Investments in January due to turnover in staff and underperformance, he said. Putnam had nothing to add, said C. Nancy Fisher, a spokeswoman. Funding for the new manager will come from that account. The board is scheduled to decide by March 24.
