That investment strategy also includes a mix of active and passive strategies.
In this episode of the SWIB Podcast, learn more about the role passive strategies like synthetic replication, passive exposure management, and leverage implementation have in helping keep the WRS fully funded. Find out how SWIB’s use of securities finance, collateral optimization, and liquidity management benefit the WRS trust funds.
