The plan is seeking regional and country-specific international equity managers.
The Lone Star State retirement fund terminated one equity manager and placed another two on watch this week.
The plan replaced its domestic mid-cap value equity manager, which had been on watch since January 2022 due to underperformance.
The plan liquidated a global equity mandate and made $1.5 billion in total commitments in July.
The plan replaced both its passive equity and fixed-income mandates with Vanguard Group as well as its sustainable equity mandate with Neuberger Berman in May.
