Michael G. Trotsky, Executive Director and Chief Investment Officer of Massachusetts Pension Reserves Investment Management (MassPRIM), was presented with the Lifetime Achievement Award from #TheAllocator by With Intelligence on October 17.? 'The Allocator' recognized Trotsky for building the Massachusetts state retirement fund into "one of the country’s best public investment operations over nearly 15 years of service,” according to Leanna Orr, editor of the publication and one of the?Allocator Awards ceremony hosts. MassPRIM Investment Committee Member Mike Even introduced Trotsky at the ceremony. “Mike’s vision has always been clear: for PRIM to be considered the best, for the employees to be fantastic, for the workplace to be supportive and enjoyable, for our track record to be superb, for our portfolio to reflect our constant strive to innovate and improve, and for our decision-making to be disciplined and consistent,” Even said. He cited Project SAVE, an initiative that nets #MassPRIM $300 million annually, and the enhancement of MassPRIM's internal risk capabilities as examples of Trotsky’s leadership. In accepting the award, Trotsky attributed his success at MassPRIM to four elements: 1) MassPRIM’s ability to attract and retain top expert talent; 2) PRIM staff doing their own thinking; 3) the establishment of a culture of innovation; 4) MassPRIM’s autonomous investment authority put in place by a strong board led by the chair, state Treasurer Deborah Goldberg. Trotsky used the example of building the Portfolio Completion Strategies asset class from, among other investments, Separately Managed Accounts, as an example of successful innovation at MassPRIM.? “I’ve learned new skills, new asset classes, and it’s a never-ending experience. I’ve grown by identifying talents and weaknesses that I never knew I had,” Trotsky said. “To assemble and work with this great team and share in their successes is the greatest pride in my professional career.”
