The $396 million pension fund conducted a shortlist search in January for a manager to replace M.D. Sass, which was terminated for underperformance. M.D. Sass officials could not be immediately reached to provide comment.
The other finalist was Brandywine Global Investment Management.
As of Oct. 31, the actual allocation to domestic equity was 35.7%.
Investment consultant AndCo Consulting assisted.
