Alongside these recent commitments, the pension’s investments team also decided to liquidate investments in three funds: Eagle Asset Management US Small Cap Growth, Waterfront Capital Partners long-short REIT strategy, and BlackRock EAFE Index Fund, with proceeds from the Eagle Asset fund to be transferred to Driehaus.

Finally, Orange County ERS also disclosed a 2025 pacing plan that would increase allocation in private equity investments as it approved a new target weight of 15%, up from 13%, which translates to a target allocation of $750M composed of individual investments of between $20M and $100M.
