Sacramento to invest $200m in private credit in 2017

The pension has already committed $25m of the total to an Athyrium Capital healthcare investment fund sub-advised by Neuberger Berman.

The Sacramento County Employees’ Retirement System has finalised its private credit investment policy as it prepares to commit $200 million across four funds: three direct lending and one opportunistic.

The northern California pension fund – which adopted a 4 percent portfolio allocation goal for private debt in January – will target a mix of 70 percent direct lending and 30 percent opportunistic vehicles, according to the investment policy statement adopted at the 21 June meeting.
