    The Rise of CITs – Why They’re a Compelling Path for Asset Managers Entering the 401(k) Plan and Retail Markets

    On this episode of Fully Invested, asset management partners, Eric Requenez and Jessica Reece, along with Josh Lichtenstein, a benefits partner and head of the ERISA fiduciary practice, discuss collective investment trusts (CITs) as a compelling strategy for raising and investing money for asset managers.
