Mercer recognizes that SBA has a choice of vendors and should pick the best company to help ensure the continued success of the business. It is our belief that Mercer is the logical partner for SBA for the following reasons: 1) Experience - Mercer has done similar projects for the following entities which helps give us the background and understanding of the various forces and issues: Georgia Division of Investment Services New York State Common Retirement Fund New York University CALPers Ohio Public Employees Retirement System Georgia Office of The Treasurer Colorado Public Employees’ Retirement Cornell University Alcatel-Lucent Association University of California 2) Investment Management Group & Compensation Consulting Group: Mercer’s multi-disciplinary team combines the best thinking from a compensation design perspective with leading edge investment management expertise 3) Mercer will invest multiple senior consultants on this project to ensure the best thinking for SBA and to provide availability and access to SBA MERCER August 16, 2012 2 Mercer Team Project Role Mercer Team Project Responsibilities Relationship Manager and Josh Wilson • Responsible for ensuring client satisfaction with Mercer team and Strategic Advisor deliverables, project billing/budget and contractual arrangements • Provide guidance, strategic advice, assist with interviews and design Project Lead Jan Olson • Provide overall project direction and guidance • Lead key interview and working sessions • Lead Incentive development • Accountable for all deliverables Project Manager Jon Mason • Lead market pricing and pay structure development • Serve as project manager, coordinating all project activities for SBA and Mercer project team members Technical Advisor Nanci Hibschman • Provide perspective from other similarly situated organizations (CALPers) and assist with market benchmarking and incentive plan design Thyrso Pizzoferrato • Provide investment management input particularly as it relates to target setting, establishing performance criteria and understanding benchmarks Additional Resources Associates • Conduct analyses and Analysts • Document results • Maintain project plan Mercer’s engagement team biographies are located in Appendix I. MERCER August 16, 2012 3 Background and objectives Background • The SBA’s existing compensation program has been in place for a number of years – Pay grades and ranges were last updated in 2006 • A 2009 review by an external consultant found: – Salaries and pay ranges were not competitive – Pay compression and internal equity issues relative to newly hired staff • Periodic consultant studies have identified issues regarding competiveness of investment staff compensation • Some recruitment and retention funding has been provided in annual operating budgets and deployed by the SBA to begin to address the most serious competitive issues • A modest incentive program for certain investment staff has been in place for much of the last decade, but payouts under the program have not been budgeted for several years • Given the importance of recruiting and retaining highly skilled, high performing staff, a more comprehensive review is required Objectives • Review and recommend a sustainable classification and compensation structure for all positions at the SBA – Assure it meets the organization’s objectives of aligning interests and prudently addressing human capital risk issues MERCER August 16, 2012 4 Scope of services includes four primary areas PreliminaryPreliminary responsibility:responsibility: MercerMercer SharedShared TasksTasks (Mercer(Mercer && SBA)SBA) 11 Planning and 22 Competitive 33 Compensation 44 Communication Strategy Development Pay Analysis Framework Development of Results Conduct kick-off /planning meeting Define appropriate comparator groups Develop proposed salary ranges and Develop final report Discuss and define SBA stakeholder Identify benchmark jobs and determine incentive targets – Competitive pay practices roles and participation job matching strategies Slot benchmark jobs to grades – Competitive pay methodology Collect and review business and Collect job documentation Compare employee compensation levels – Proposed incentive plan compensation program information Match SBA jobs to comparable survey to salary ranges and target total cash mechanics, design features, and Plan and conduct focus groups and descriptions opportunity rationale IAC and executive interviews Confirm survey matches with the SBA Review results with the SBA project team Conduct meeting with Mercer and Develop statement of compensation project team Develop process for slotting non- SBA project teams to review report program objectives for IAC approval Collect competitive market data benchmark jobs Prepare presentation materials Compare employee compensation Assign jobs to grades in collaboration Participate in meetings with key levels to market data with the SBA Project Team constituencies as requested Review results with the SBA Discuss incentive plan practices and identify key issues that may impact incentive plan design Outline design considerations and develop high-level outline of key design elements Agree on overall design framework Establish funding requirements Test and refine specific performance measures, weights and linkages Finalize participation, award guidelines, time period, performance measures, governance, and costs MERCER August 16, 2012 5 1 2 3 4 Preliminary Project Plan – Phase 1 Illustration of compensation objective statement inputs Illustrative A total compensation philosophy includes explicit, comprehensive principles that guide pay design and management Degree of differentiation needed in the compensation strategy to Segmentation 1 support unique requirements for different workforce segments Purpose of each compensation vehicle 2 Role of each element (e.g., base salary, incentives, benefits) 3 Comparator group(s) Competitive talent market 4 Competitive positioning Target positioning, mix 5 Performance orientation Differentiation, time horizon, point of measurement, metrics 6 Internal equity Importance of the internal relative value of work Degree of cost control required to ensure affordability and 7 Affordability sustainability 8 Governance Decision-making structure, management responsibility 9 Communication Approach and vehicles for information sharing 10 Administration Approach and point of management including regulatory compliance Mercer 4 MERCER August 16, 2012 6 1 2 3 4 Preliminary Project Plan – Phase 2 Illustration of employee compensation comparison with market Illustrative Data ABC Co. 11% Base Salary Deviation from Market Median by Job Family 9% 7% 4.5% 5% 3.0% 3% 1% -

  • Preparing Health Systems for Tumour-Agnostic Treatment
    Preparing Health Systems for Tumour-Agnostic Treatment Tumour-agnostic therapies will play an important role in a new era of personalised healthcare, challenging existing diagnostic and value assessment frameworks. The 2017 A.T. Kearney Foreign Direct Investment Confidence Index: Glass Half Full 1 Advances in oncology have resulted in several revolutionary treatment modalities, which have made inroads into the way we fight cancer. One of these breakthroughs entails the development of medicines that target specific mutations or genomic alterations in different tumours, resulting in a complete and lasting response to treatment in affected patients.1, 2 This new class of treatments is known as “tumour-agnostic” or “histology-independent” therapies because of how they target the genomic alteration within a tumour, regardless of where in the body it has formed. By the end of 2018, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) had approved two medicines for tumour-agnostic indications, paving the way for their commercialisation in the US. However, these types of therapies face significant challenges in adoption due to both how these new technologies will be assessed for value and reimbursed, and to the diagnostic infrastructure required to ensure that the patients most likely to respond to these treatments are identified and can gain timely access. This report was commissioned by F. Hoffmann-La Roche in November 2018 to review the landscape for tumour-agnostic treatment in the five largest European healthcare markets (Germany, France, Italy, United Kingdom and Spain) and Canada. The research is based on a review of publicly available industry reports, articles, recent publications and 30 interviews with oncologists, regulators, health technology assessors, policymakers, pathologists and payers across these markets.

  • The 2018 at Kearney Foreign Direct Investment Confidence Index
    Investing in a Localized World The 2018 A.T. Kearney Foreign Direct Investment Confidence Index® In an environment marked by stronger economic growth and elevated political risks, investors’ pursuit of localization raises the importance of FDI for business strategies. The 2018 A.T. Kearney Foreign Direct Investment Confidence Index 1 The world continues to change in fundamental ways. Amid such changes, however, we often miss what in retrospect seems clear. A few years ago, when we released our From Globalization to Islandization report foreshadowing a more protectionist world, many observers expressed skepticism about our conclusions. They believed that globalization was an immutable, irreversible phenomenon. Now, more than two years later, our FDI Confidence Index indicates that investors have accepted that globalization is being challenged and are seeking practical ways to ensure continued access to key markets. And yet in some ways, the more things change, the more they stay the same. So it is with investors’ reliance on FDI to implement their business strategies. In the heady days of globalization, FDI was essential to creating globalized value chains. Today, in an increasingly “islandized” global economy, FDI is crucial for maintaining market access in important economies. Localization—the practice of shifting a company’s management, operations, production, or marketing to local markets—has become an in vogue international business strategy. Nearly all the investors we surveyed say that they are localizing or considering localizing some of their operations and that such strategies are increasing their dependence on FDI. Indeed, this approach makes good sense in a global environment characterized by an expanding economy and uncertain politics.
