U.S. Steel has appointed Bryan Lewis as its new chief investment officer. Lewis has served as CIO for the Pennsylvania State Employees’ Retirement System (SERS) since 2016, managing a $30 billion pension fund. Prior to his Pennsylvania position, he was the executive director of the $20 billion Illinois State Universities Retirement System.
As CIO for U.S. Steel, Lewis will be responsible for the company’s global pension obligations for defined contribution and defined benefit plans, as well as other related programs. He will report to Kevin Bradley, executive vice president and chief financial officer.
“Bryan’s strong public pension experience and investment background make him an excellent fit for this role,” said U.S. Steel President and CEO David Burritt. “He brings sound judgment, sharp intelligence and the highest integrity to the job.”
