Baltimore City Fire and Police Employees’ Retirement System confirmed at its January 2020 board meeting that it has halved its target allocation to infrastructure investments for the 2020 calendar year, this despite approving two new commitments to the asset class.
The pension has decreased its target allocation to its energy & master limited partnerships (MLPs) asset class from 10 percent to 5 percent. This asset class houses the pension’s infrastructure investments; the latest two of which comprise of $20 million apiece to Brookfield Infrastructure Partners IV and JLC Infrastructure Fund I.
