LONDON, 4 July 2018 – Global asset manager Russell Investments today announced that the French government’s pension plan sponsor FRR (Fonds de réserve pour les retraites) selected the firm for a new global portfolio transition management mandate.
The FRR will leverage Russell Investments Implementation Service Limited to manage portfolios, when assigned, during transition periods. The transition process will include execution of buy and sell orders on financial instruments originating from the FRR’s asset managers.
