Ohio State Teachers Retirement System, Columbus, is conducting an asset-liability study.
Callan, the $95.1 billion pension fund's investment consultant, is conducting the study to establish reasonable risk-return expectations and objectives, according to a presentation included with materials for Thursday's board meeting.
Preliminary results of the study will be presented to the board at its Dec. 15-17 meeting, with the full study to be completed in the spring and provide recommendations for a new asset allocation.
