New Mexico Educational Retirement Board has selected Pictet Asset Management as a manager for its $100 million active emerging markets debt portfolio, Pensions & Investments reports. The retirement board has also committed $100 million to Brookfield Asset Management for active domestic real estate investment trusts (REITs).

The REIT mandate is from the existing REIT allocation of the portfolio.
