Lancashire County Pension Fund – George Graham, Trevor Castledine and Andrew Fox have all been promoted following an internal re-organisation that sees the local authority fund established as a standalone entity, separate from the council. Graham has been named the LCPF’s director, having previously served as Lancashire Council’s deputy treasurer, while Castledine has been promoted from portfolio manager to deputy CIO under CIO Mike Jensen.
