The $4bn defined benefit pension has previously committed to vehicles managed by Lexington Partners and W Capital Partners.

The team joins asset manager Patrimonium three months after the successful restructuring of its 2007-vintage fund.

The promotions at the law firm include at least two who focus on secondaries, including HarbourVest Partners' Dover Street IX fundraise.

The new director, who joined the investment firm in 2011, has quickly risen through the ranks of the firm.

The $26bn pension has backed two of the secondaries firm's funds with a combined $150m, half of what it committed to predecessor vehicles.

The definition of secondaries is expanding, as large-cap managers use annex fund commitments and other alternative investments to manage assets, according to the investment bank.

The full-year volume dropped below the 2015 record, according to the advisory firm and placement agent.

The global investment manager has held a second close for Hamilton Lane Secondary Fund IV, which has a $1.3bn target​.

The Nordic direct secondaries firm had built up a 55% stake in Movimento, which counts GM, Fiat Chrysler and Volvo among its customers.

The fund of funds manager will increase the vehicle's secondaries and co-investment allocation to more than 20%.
