As of Dec. 31, the pension fund's actual allocation to its private equity and debt asset class was 9.7%; the target is 11%.
The RFP is available on NEPC's website. Proposals are due at 2 p.m. EDT on May 2. A timeline for a selection was not provided.
John Kelly, the pension fund's investment analyst, could not be immediately reached for further information.
