2025 got off to a busy start with Dakota tracking 13 investment RFPs issued in January, representing nearly $3.9B in potential allocations across international and domestic equities and fixed income, private credit, infrastructure, and hedge funds/liquid alternatives.

Notable among the searches were the $1.4B RFPs from the Public Employees’ Retirement System of Mississippi and the Indiana Public Retirement System seeking investment firms with products in global equities and opportunistic credit, respectively. The State Universities Retirement System of Illinois also launched a search for convertible bond strategies on an $800M mandate, while the Teachers’ Retirement System of Illinois issued its own $400M RFP seeking low duration fixed income managers.
