GPFA appoints Cherie Jeffries

As we grow, we are excited to announce Cherie Jeffries, Director of Fixed Income Trading and Short Duration/Passive Senior Portfolio Manager for the State Board of Administration of Florida will be the U.S. Regional Lead for the Global Peer Financing Association (GPFA). Cherie has worked closely with our Board of Directors over the past few years to expand GPFA’s reach at industry conferences, and we are thrilled to have her in this important leadership position as we continue to evolve to meet the needs of our members.
 
GPFA is a volunteer-led, non-profit association for beneficial owners, by beneficial owners. The U.S. beneficial owner segment currently makes up over 30% of GPFA’s membership base, with the rest of our beneficial owner community spread across Canada, Europe, the Middle East and Asia Pacific. GPFA was originally founded by four North American pension funds and has rapidly grown to include many of the largest global institutional investors engaged in securities financing. On behalf of the GPFA Board of Directors and all GPFA Members, thank you Cherie and the team at SBA Florida for volunteering your time and expertise to support our buyside community!
