STRS Ohio to invest international markets, sell U.S. assets

by Andrea Zander

The $77.6 billion State Teachers Retirement System (STRS) of Ohio has plans to invest in international real estate over the next 12 months as it continues to sell directly held U.S. assets; however, investing in international properties is not related to the selling of U.S. assets.

The pension fund has plans to invest in funds that target mispriced or under-managed assets in core European markets, and funds that invest in industrial assets in Japan and China.  And it will seek to take advantage of governmental/corporate dispositions in  Asia.

In fiscal 2018, STRS Ohio allocated 60 percent of the $310 million it invested internationally to Europe, with the rest allocated to Asia.
