A union pension fund manager has emerged as the first public suitor for the Boston Globe. Boston-based Intercontinental Real Estate Corp. confirmed its interest to the Boston Herald, saying the Globe fits its investment profile and that is has been pursuing a purchase for about 10 weeks. The company, which manages real estate and some $2,5 billion in investment funds, says it “is interested in any good investment that offers superior returns for our investors, as well as opportunities for job preservation, and even job growth, for our union investors.”
