Looking for information on managing a bond portfolio/fixed income
internally instead of hiring someone like Vanguard, PIMCO, etc. to
manage a bond portfolio externally. Why or why not should one consider
doing it? Answer would be good to include pros and cons and instances
of bad things and good things that could arise from internally
managing bonds/fixed income. Constuction of portfolios
(sector/security selection) not as important as structure of
personnel, compliance issues, ethics issues, etc.

Would be good to have a list of state pension funds, corporate pension
funds, endowments and foundations that do manage bonds internally
(in-house with internal staff). Thanks.
