That's what he has done his entire career. He was Vice President at a regional bank based right here in South Carolina — protecting the deposits, savings, and futures of families he grew up alongside. He is not a politician looking for a title. He is a banker who has spent two decades making sure the numbers add up for people who never get to see the books.

  • Campaign notes the Treasurer does not directly manage pension investments but appoints an RSIC commissioner and can demand transparent oversight.
Read exact supporting textExact evidence retained

The text below is the exact source material used for this statement.

The Treasurer does not personally manage pension investments — the RSIC has exclusive investment authority. But the Treasurer appoints a commissioner and will demand that retirement and reserve dollars are judged on returns and risk, not by who's loudest in Columbia or Washington.

Lower Fees, Higher Yields

Renegotiate cash-management, reserve, and Wall Street contracts controlled by the Treasurer to reduce fees and improve returns.

Campaign finance

Official filings may be amended after publication.

Current campaign-finance summary unavailable

No finance record attaches without one exact official ethics filer and compatible 2026 report. Missing values are not zero.
