A RESOLUTION TO CONSIDER APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO THE UNIFORMED PENSION PLAN INVESTMENT POLICY STATEMENT

10-22-19 BOA Minutes October 22, 2019 Page 5 of 7

Interim City Manager Watson reported that the Board of Aldermen have the responsibility for approving and revising the investment policies for both the Uniformed Employees’ Pension Plan and the Non-Uniformed Employees’ Pension Plan as outlined in the plan documents. Recently, the Missouri Joint Committee on Public Employee Retirement (JCPER) implemented statutory requirements for public pension systems to develop an affirmative action plan for the utilization of minority and women money managers, brokers and investment counselors, with annual reporting requirements of this information.

This topic was discussed with Asset Consulting Group (ACG), the investment advisor for both plans, over the course of two quarterly trustee meetings. To aid clients in this regard, ACG has already begun collecting diversity and inclusion data for all current and potential managers within the City’s pension portfolios. The data collected is related to gender and race demographics for firm ownership, total firm-wide investment team, strategy-specific investment team, and the operations/administrative group. They collect this data using industry best practices, although the data is self-reported by the investment firms. This information will be valuable for annual reporting and for evaluating future investment managers.

The trustees of both boards recommended a change to each plan’s investment policy statement. The added language calls for the trustees to provide opportunities for minority and women-owned investment advisors and managers during selection processes, as well as comply with all aspects of the new statutory requirements.

Motion made by Alderman Winings to approve Resolution No. 19-14, an amendment to the Non-Uniformed Employees Retirement Plan Investment Policy Statement. Alderman Boulton seconded.
