OKLAHOMA CITY (OBV) — The Invest in Oklahoma Board held its first official meeting Monday, taking initial steps to launch the state’s investment program.
The board elected leadership, approved its fiduciary manager and adopted an investment policy governing how certain state funds may be deployed into Oklahoma‑based private investment opportunities.
“This is a moment to set a strong foundation for how Oklahoma will support and grow innovative companies and investment activity right here in our state, while ensuring state dollars are invested responsibly,” Governor Stitt said. “This board plays a critical role in making sure investment decisions are disciplined, transparent, and aligned with the public interest.”
The board will begin reviewing investment proposals at its next meeting.
“This program allows us to put Oklahoma’s resources to work supporting businesses that create jobs, drive innovation, and grow our economy,” Treasurer Russ said. “Our next steps will be reviewing Oklahoma investment proposals and making thoughtful, disciplined decisions that benefit both the state and the communities these companies may serve.”
