Nissan Motor Manufacturing Corp., Smyrna, Tenn., hired Artisan Partners for a $17 million international equity portfolio, replacing Blairlogie. The $190 million fund terminated Blairlogie for performance reasons, said William Scott, manager of general accounting.
‘‘We were told by the consultants that we were too core,’’ said Gavin Dobson, Blairlogie’s CEO.
LCG Associates assisted.
