Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport Board approved two new alternatives fund commitments totaling $15 million for its $943 million pension fund.
The airport's board approved a commitment of $7.5 million each to Ares Global Multi-Asset Credit Fund, an opportunistic credit fund managed by Ares Management, and Torchlight Debt Opportunity Fund VIII, a real estate debt fund managed by Torchlight Investors, at its June 8 meeting, spokesman Brian A. Brooks said in an email.
