that's
correct.
B
Which
was
added
just
today
to
the
agenda
concerns
a
letter.
B
To
I
think,
we'll
revisit
public
comments..
B
B
K

M
M
M

M
G
P
P
Q
R
But
everybody
I'm
jared,
proud.
I've
been
here
about
three
and
a
half
years
and
and
working
with
san
jose
plans
for
most.
R
R
R
R
R
R
R
R
Which
is
real
assets?
This
is
more
immature
than
others.,
so
you
see
underway
here
two
point:
one
percent
weighted
against
the
three
percent
target..
If
you
look
at
the
bottom
right
number,
you
see
a
twelve
point:
eight
percent
irr,
which
is
really
nice
just
in
an
absolute
sense,
to
have
a
number
of
that
that
big
on
page
nine,
this.
R
R
R
R
R
R
G
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
I
do
want
to
highlight
public
equity
public
equity
as
an
asset
class
that
isn't
known
for
being
easy
to
outperform
benchmarks..
There's
a
lot
of
information
in
the
market.
private
markets
is
typically
where
you
see
more
ability
to
outperform
fees.,
but
your
public
markets
portfolio,
which
is
led
by
christina
wong
on
your
staff,
is,
has
been
doing
quite
well
for
the
one
year
return.
Q
The
next
few
slides.
I
wanted
to
take
a
look
at
page
thirty
at
private
markets
and
just
point
out
again
one
of
the
reasons
that
you
do
see
the
overweight
to
private
markets
in
the
portfolio
right
now.
If
you
look
at
the
three
year
return
for
private
markets,,
this
is
an
average
annual
return
over
the
last
three
years
has
been
north
of
20
percent..
So
we
did
see
a
lot
of
protection
in
twenty
twenty
two.
We
may
still
see
some
write
downs,
but
I
think
the
fact
remains.
Q
Q
Five,
I
will
skip
ahead..
I
mentioned
the
public
equity
outperformance..
A
lot
of
that
has
been
driven
by
emerging
markets,
equity
in
your
portfolio..
So
you
see
that
the
msci
emerging
markets-
I
am-
I
net
index-
has
had
a
one
year
return
of
three
point:
two
percent:
where
is
your
emerging
markets?
Portfolio
in
the
gray,
was
up
six
percent,
so
almost
double,
and
that
holds
true
again
over
the
three
year
period.,
so
the
average
annualized
return
for
the
emerging
markets.
Your
portfolio
is
six
point:
three
percent.
Q
Q
Q
Q
P
P
P
Q
Q
Q
Q
G
U
Is
more
like
long
term
investor
and
also
the
other.
G
Use
it
wisely..
I
don't
disagree
just
if
you're
going
to
do
india
really.
K
Impact
is.:
we
think
it's
ten
basis
points,
but
we
will
come
back
to
the
board
when
we
have
a.
B
Yeah,
I
think
that's
okay.,
so
have
we
ring-fence
the
issue?
Can
we
believe
it's
no.
K
We
also
made
a
fix
prospectively..
So
we
once
we
found
out,
we
we
corrected
the
error
in
the
process.
That's
been
taken
care
of
.
and
I
also
have
to
mention
that
uh,
when
it
comes
to
reporting
fees-
and
this
is
manager
fees.
right.,
so
you
will
see
a
fee
report
that
we
present
later
to
the
boards,
and
I
can
assure
the
boards
and
the
city
council
that
the
fee
report
that
I
have
presented
to
the
city
council
every
year
in
the
last
five
years.
The
comprehensive
fee
report
does
include
all
fees.
B
Reflected
in
our
audited
financials
in
terms
of
total.
S
Include
the
manager
fees
which
actually
means
that,
from
an
accounting
standpoint,
we
are
actually
recording
the
actual
assets
based
on
the
management
fees.,
the
issue
here
and
again,
I
deferred
to
probably
understand
that
much
better.
It's
about.
S
S
Stav
banerji,
are
you,
are
you.
O
B
Q
K
Number
is
about
10
percent
nine
point,
eight
percent
in
the
five
year,
seven
and
a
half
percent,
and
both
of
which
are
quite
a
bit
above
the
actuarial,
uh,
rate,
which
I'm
assuming
a
blended
rate
of
six
point.
Eight
percent..
So
we've
really
done
significantly
better,
both
on
a
three
and
five
year
basis
and.
K
Staff
and,
of
course,
with
checks
and
balances,
and
that
really.
K
They
give
us
ninety
percent
delegation
of
authority,
and
we
just
made
it
one
hundred
percent,
and
it
was
also
followed
by
visionary
trustees
on
your
board,
who
supported
at
least
one
of
them.
K
Among
the
best
public
plants
in
terms
of
how
they
managed.
K
And
so
we
really
tried
to
model
ourselves
after
them,
and
part
of
that
was
was
good
governance
and
delegation
of
authority
with
the
appropriate
checks
and
balances
which
allowed
us
to
be
nimble.,
so
the
board
supported
in
two
twenty
nineteen.
When
I
came
and
said,
we
need
to
increase
our
little
bit,
sets
to
thirty
percent
of
the
portfolio
and
subsequently
the
board's
acted
very
quickly
and
supported
us.
When
we
said
we
have
to
redeploy
it
a
little
bit
to
hide
bad
assets
in
march.
K
And
in
a
good
performance
is
never
long
lived,
so
I
thought
I
might
as
well
take
a
moment
to
shine
some
light
on
it
and.
K
K
Extraordinaril
good
fiscal
policy
from
the
government.
K
uh,.
The
second
is
extraordinaril
easy
monetary.
J
K
We
have
to
work
hard
and
you
know,
uh,
performance
is.
K
K
B
Q
This
will
be
quick
and,
to
echo
all
the
comments,,
you
know
we
can
control
process
and
governance..
We
can't
control
the
markets,
and
so
that's
what
we
focus
on
is
the
process
of
governance.,
but
in
order
to
report
further
on
the
markets
for
your
health
care
trust,,
this
will
be
relatively
quick
because,
as
you.
Q
Q
Q
Q
K
V
Yeah,
I
mean
on
the
meeting
of
and
we're
we're
going
to.
A
A
A
N
N
N
N
V
V
V
N
N
V
B
B
V
Yeah,
that
might
be
better
for
eileen,
but
let
me
that
navigate
their
appendix
c
was.
K
K
These
things
right
to
to
change,
to
operate
within
a
certain.
B
K
K
H
K
K
B
B
A
bit
and
the
fact
is,
we
have
not
changed
our
asset.
B
B
K
A
C
K
Morning
I
sent
an
email
both
to
my
team
as
well
as
to
makita
to
look
at
you
know,.
You.
J
To
look
at
you,
our
exposure.
K
And
public
equity,
and
to
have
a
discussion
internally
on
whether
we
should
be
looking.
K
Rarely
comes
up
because
then
we
come
to
the
conclusion.
Usually
after
all
these
detailed
analysis
that
it's
on
what
the
transactions
costs
and.
G
I've
noticed
in
my
tenure
has
encouraged
people
to
want
to
make
change
for
a
plan
that
is
fundamentally
long
term
and
all
of
the
stochastic
modeling
that
we
get
from
makita
takes
into
account
various
drawdown
scenarios,
various
interest
rate
hikes,.
All
that
sort
of
stuff
and
trustees
are
in
the
habit
of
what
they've
read
or
seen
lately
in
the
last
two
or
three
months
picked
up
a
newspaper,
read
a
paper
and
to.
G
G
B
K
G
D
D
D
T
A
wordsmith
or
what
we've
got
here
is
the
first
sentence
takes.
One
of
your
positions
in
the
second
sentence
takes
the
other
of
your
positions,
and
we've
got
them
conflated
in
the
same
thing
here.,
and
so
because
the
first
sentence
only
refers
to
a
formal
asset
allocation
study.
That's
going
to
be
undertaken.
T
T
T
B
V
V
In
might
look
a
little
busy,
but
they
have
to
do
with
basically
updating
the
manager.
V
Selection
process
for
the
current
level
of
staff
discretion.,
so
some
of
this
language
kind
of
remains
from
the
period.
V
V
So
you
might,,
you
might
be
familiar
with
this
from
other
positions
or
other.
V
V
Way
or
another.,
and
so
what
we've
done
is
cleaned
up
the
process
here
and
made
it
clear
that
going.
V
V
V
B
D
N
B
D
G
Tonight.
I
have
to
leave
now
so
very
good.
K
K
So
this
is
an
annual
fee
report
that
we
present
to
the
board
and
then
it's
taken
to
the
city
council
and
I
should
actually
call
it
a
fee
report.
K
Y
Y
So,
okay
great.
Y
So
the
the
traffic
report
is
something
that
we
do
on
an
annual
basis.
Y
Y
Y
So
this
is
how
it
looks
like
for
the
last
five
years
with
the
returns
for
the
calendar.
Y
Year
stated
below
so
this
is.
Y
Just
for
pension-
and
you
can
see,
of
course,
during
throughout
the
last
year,
twenty.
Y
Twenty
two,
as
we've.
Y
Experienced
the
markets
turned
a
negative,
had
a
negative
return..
So
therefore,
what
we
see.
Y
We're
able
to
compare
to
a
quick,
competitive
check
on
how
our
fees
are
compared
to.
Y
Pension
plan-
we
are,
you,
know,
other
than
calipers
and
calstrs.
Y
Of
their
assets
under.
Y
P
P
P
Y
This,
the
second
page,
is,
is
a
reflection.
We
are
already
seen
the
total
fees
in
percentage
terms
now
they're
in
dollar
terms.,
so
uh,.
Forty
seven
point:
seven
million
is
what
were
the.
Y
Markets
go
up
and
down,
and
there
are
good
markets.
There
are
bad
markets,
the
market
will
do
what
it
does.
Y
Not
another
well
we'll
see
in
a
little
bit
later
in
our
future
pages..
L
Asset
allocations.
for.
Y
Passive
passive
allocations.
Y
For
for
for
the
pension
plan.,
they
those
have
remained
the
same.
The
contribution
to
the.
Y
That
again,
our
our
the
chart
on
the
right
represents.
Y
Our
actual
allocation
active.
Y
Y
Percent
to
fifty
so
this
chart
this.
This
page
is
going
to
go
through
sort
of
contributio
to
management
fees,
as
it
relates
to
public
private
versus
hegde
and
you'll.
Y
See
that
the
actual
public,
the
contribution
to
management
fees
from
the
public
managers
have
remained
the
same.
Y
Y
Y
Two
was
a
our
hedge
fund
managers.
Did
they
did
fairly.
Y
They
did
well,
they
they've.
Y
Maintained
their
a
in
a.
Y
So
the
allocation
to
those
hedge
funds,
even
though
they
the
the
percentage
wise
it's.
B
K
K
K
Twenty
twenty
two,
but
it's.
P
Sixteen
and
a
half
percent,
but
the
source
of
that
return
is
quite
different,
so
in
twenty,
when
he
was
in
private
markets,
we're
actually
generating
a
lot
of
that
return..
So
as
a
result
of
that,
the
private
managers
were
accruing
large
incentives,
whereas
in
twenty
twenty
two
we
had
a
negative
nine
percent
return.
F
You
want
to
psps
well,
I
just.
K
K
Vital
role
in
in
a
plan,,
I
just
felt
that
there
were
better
alternatives
and
cheaper.
K
K
Ask
the
question
earlier:
nothing
like
a
downturn
in
the
markets
to
help
us
negotiate.
