CalPERS Names Dan Bienvenue Senior Investment Officer for Global Equity

The California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) has named Dan Bienvenue the Senior Investment Officer (SIO) for Global Equity, effective immediately.

Bienvenue had been serving as the Acting SIO for Global Equity since June 2013 after Eric Baggesen took another leadership position within the CalPERS Investment Office.

"Dan is a talented team player, and has proven he has the knowledge and experience to guide our Global Equity portfolio," said Ted Eliopoulos, Acting CalPERS Chief Investment Officer. "We’re glad to have him permanently as SIO and look forward to continuing working with him."

Dan Bienvenue joined CalPERS in 2004 after serving as a Principal and Senior Portfolio Manager with Barclays Global Investors, leading an international equity portfolio management team responsible for $55 billion across developed and emerging markets.

He was named Senior Portfolio Manager for Global Equity at CalPERS in 2008. In that role, he was responsible for implementing and directing CalPERS internally managed equity portfolios.

As SIO for Global Equity, Bienvenue is responsible for implementation and management of investment strategy and policy for the pension fund’s $141.8 billion portfolio in publicly traded equity investments worldwide.

Bienvenue holds a bachelor’s degree in economics from the University of California, Davis and is a Chartered Financial Analyst.
