# Usha Doolabh
APERS Accounting Operations Manager, Investments. Email:
[email protected]. Phone: 501-682-7812. Office at 124 W. Capitol Ave, Suite 400, Little Rock, AR 72201.
Doolabh's specific role is documented at the APERS R2 ingest. Per the 3/5/2025 IFSC minutes attendance, she is "Investments Accounting Operations Manager" (the formal title). She is the APERS-side operational lead on the back-office coordination for Israel Bonds, parallel to Borromeo's investment-decision authority and Alamina/Walton/Summers's investment-analyst roles.
## R1: FOIA-routing distribution
Doolabh is cc'd on the 12/10/2024 Mryyan FOIA forward from Gilson to Borromeo and Fecher (10:39 AM). The cc pattern groups Doolabh with Richmond Giles in the FOIA-routing distribution.
## R2: APERS Israel Bonds operational lead
The IB_FOIA_FINAL production documents Doolabh as the APERS-side operational lead on the Israel Bonds decision-chain coordination. Three key Doolabh interactions:
(1) **9/3/2025 8:19 AM**: Doolabh queried Brad Young about Israel Bonds tenor availability. Young replied (7:50 AM, prior to her ask in the timezone-aligned thread): "Yes, 2 years is our shortest term." Doolabh's query established that APERS specifically wanted to know whether shorter terms than 2 years were available. They were not. APERS then opted for the 2-year shortest available maturity. Page 8543 of IB_FOIA_FINAL.
(2) **9/16/2025 10:55 AM**: Doolabh forwarded the Young 9/3 confirmation to Borromeo (13-day forward delay), making this the moment Borromeo received Young's confirmation in writing.
(3) **9/29/2025 11:15 AM**: Brad Young emailed Doolabh new institutional rates with the wire-date offer "If you would like to get this rate, you can wire on the 15th." Doolabh acknowledged at 11:26 AM: "Thank you for the notice, Brad, I will let you know if Carlos would like to delay the payment and get the updated rate offered." Page 8536-8537.
The 10/15/2025 $15M wire executed against Young's offered rate, settling APERS's first Israel Bonds purchase at CUSIP 46514X2A6 ("APERS 2 YR BOND"). Doolabh is therefore the operational principal who took the rate-offer-with-CUSIP-change from DCI sales side to the wire execution.
Doolabh is also on the 11/6/2025 BNY-APERS back-office security setup thread alongside Borromeo, Alamina, Summers, and Walton (per [[apers-foia-r2-2-27-26]] Sub-batch 7 documentation).
