OCERS plans to commit up to $375m to real estate in 2024

The public pension has already committed $75m to Cerberus Capital Management this year.

Institution: Orange County Employees Retirement System
Headquarters: Santa Ana, US
AUM: $21 billion
Allocation to real estate: 7.4%

The Orange County Employees Retirement System has outlined its 2024 real estate pacing plan.

The pacing plan calls for Orange County to commit up to $150 million to the core real estate portfolio, spread across up to two investments. For the non-core portfolio, OCERS aims to allocate between $150 million and $225 million, with two to four funds receiving between $50 million and $75 million in commitments each.

The pension fund is focused on three main objectives for their non-core portfolio: high conviction re-up commitments, complementary sector/regional exposures and niche investment opportunities with potential for growth.

Alongside the announcement of the pacing plan, OCERS confirmed a $75 million commitment to opportunistic real estate fund Cerebus Institutional Real Estate Partners VI.
