CalPERS’ senior real estate portfolio manager, James Lasher, has resigned from his current position, Pensions & Investments reports. He is one of three senior portfolio managers for the real estate program and all three fund managers operate under the direction of senior investment officer of real estate, Ted Eliopoulos.
