November activity reflected a steady pipeline of institutional searches, with Dakota tracking a broad mix of RFPs totaling $1.1B across public equities, fixed income, real assets, multi-asset strategies, and private markets. Combined, the month’s opportunities represented allocations ranging from smaller sector-specific mandates to searches exceeding half a billion dollars, including multiple requests from the Attleboro Contributory Retirement System spanning US equities, international equities, fixed income, and real estate – all carrying December 15 deadlines and totaling over $100M in potential allocations.
Noteworthy among the month’s releases was the $574.2M RFP from Luxembourg’s Fonds de compensation, alongside a $142M multi-asset mandate from Kenya’s TSC Staff Superannuation & Retirement Benefits Scheme. Additional searches included opportunities from Flood Re, several Massachusetts retirement systems, and Metropolia University of Applied Sciences. In private markets, Fondo Telemaco issued RFPs totaling $183M across private equity and private credit, both due November 24.
