South Carolina Retirement Systems has mandated Deutsche Bank as its first third-party securities lending agent, according to reports.
The South Carolina Retirement System Investment Commission reportedly approved COO Greg Rybergs recommendation to install Deutsche Bank at a recent meeting concerning the $27 billion pension fund.

The bank previously handled all securities lending activities for the pension fund.
In its 2012 to 2013 Annual Investment Report, the pension fund revealed that, under BNY Mellons leadership, the gross securities lending revenue for the 麍scal year was $2.5 million, an increase from $1.4 million in the prior year.
A Deutsche Bank spokesperson declined to comment.
