A European corporate pension fund is looking for a manager to run a $10m (€7.3m) global insurance-linked securities portfolio, according to a new entry on manager search facility IPE-Quest.

The unnamed pension fund has stipulated the mandate should be run with a defensive style and using an active process, benchmarked against the Eurekahedge ILS Advisers and the Swiss Re Global CAT Bond indices.

Managers should have at least $500m in assets under management in the targeted asset class, and a minimum of $10bn under management overall.

The deadline for responses is 11 August.
