The Oklahoma Firefighters Pension & Retirement System, Oklahoma City, has selected Hood River Capital Management to replace Jackson Square Partners as its small-midcap growth domestic equity portfolio manager, according to Chase Rankin, executive director of the $3.3 billion pension fund.
The decision was made at a board meeting on Dec. 15, following a request for proposal issued in August, Mr. Rankin said in an email.
As of Nov. 30, the portfolio was valued at approximately $81 million, he said.
Oklahoma Firefighters initiated the search because Jackson Square Partners had been on watch for performance reasons.
Jackson Square Partners did not respond to an email requesting comment.
