About this user
The State Treasurer's office manages more than $78 Billion in pension funds, investing the retirement dollars of 825,000 North Carolinians, hopefully as wisely and prudently as possible. Obviously, the Treasurer's office is no place for on-the-job training!The only candidate with actual investment experience in managing and protecting people's money is Michael Weisel. While serving as Investment Manager and Pension Fund Advisor at international firms like Kemper Financial Services and Wells Fargo Bank, he managed more than $1.25 billion in pension fund assets.
Michael Weisel is also the only candidate to serve on state boards critical to the state treasurer, like the Teachers' and State Employees' Retirement System, the Local Governmental Employees' Retirement System, and the State Board of Community Colleges. As a member of the State Banking Commission, Michael Weisel also led the fight against ridiculously high, 36% interest rates by predatory lenders.
And the only candidate who refused political contributions from any bank, investment manager, PAC or individual that invests the State's pension funds? Again, Michael Weisel.
