DFW Airport Pension System

The Dallas/Fort Worth Airport Board Retirement Plan was established in 1978 to deliver retirement income to eligible airport employees. It operates alongside personal savings and Social Security under state statute. The plan maintains a 14.3 percent allocation to private equity, with strategies spanning buyout, venture, co-investment, and special situations. Geographic reach centers on North America. Ticket sizes range from 7.5 million to 15 million USD. No recent operational events from the last 24 months appear in available records. The plan lists no additional offices or named investment staff. Governance ties directly to the Dallas Fort Worth International Airport Board, creating a single-sponsor structure without external LP vehicles.
