GE Pension Trust Seeds Asset-Backed Credit Interval Fund With $100 Million

2 articles · Updated · Pensions & Investments · Aug 5

Summary

  • $100 million from GE Pension Trust has been committed as seed capital to an asset-backed credit interval fund, marking the latest allocation by the pension investor into private credit.
  • The fund is tied to the AltsABF strategy backed by Janus Henderson, Victory Park Capital and Privacore Capital, which earlier said GE's additional commitment lifted seed capital to more than $350 million.
  • That vehicle is being distributed through Charles Schwab, Fidelity Investments and BNY Pershing, widening access to private asset-backed credit for RIAs and wealth-management clients.
  • The investment comes as public pension CIOs say delegation and AI are expanding their authority and could reduce consultants' influence over portfolio decisions.
