BACKGROUND — NASACT and the National Association of State Treasurers created the LGIP Workgroup last fall to examine amendments to Rule 2a-7 approved last summer by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The amendments impact money market mutual funds (MMFs), specifically requiring, among other things, that MMFs adopt a floating net asset value (NAV) instead of the traditional stable NAV. The workgroup has focused primarily on the impacts the amendments will have on local government investment pools (LGIPs), which are in many instances operated by state governments. In October the workgroup submitted a letter to the GASB requesting that the issue be added to the GASB’s technical agenda and that the GASB consider options that will allow LGIPs to continue using amortized costs (i.e., a stable NAV). The GASB added this issue to its technical agenda in December 2014.

    The Chief Management Officer of the Department of Defense: an Assessment

    DEFENSE BUSINESS BOARD Submitted to the Secretary of Defense The Chief Management Officer of the Department of Defense: An Assessment DBB FY 20-01 An assessment of the effectiveness, responsibilities, and authorities of the Chief Management Officer of the Department of Defense as required by §904 of the FY20 NDAA June 1, 2020 DBB FY20-01 CMO Assessment 1 Executive Summary Tasking and Task Force: The Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) (Public Law (Pub. L. 116-92) required the Secretary of Defense (SD) to conduct an independent assessment of the Chief Management Officer (CMO) with six specific areas to be evaluated. The Defense Business Board (DBB) was selected on February 3, 2020 to conduct the independent assessment, with Arnold Punaro and Atul Vashistha assigned to co-chair the effort. Two additional DBB board members comprised the task force: David Walker and David Van Slyke. These individuals more than meet the independence and competencies required by the NDAA. Approach: The DBB task force focused on the CMO office and the Department of Defense (DoD) business transformation activities since 2008 when the office was first established by the Congress as the Deputy Chief Management Officer (DCMO), and in 2018 when the Congress increased its statutory authority and elevated it to Executive Level (EX) II and the third ranking official in DoD. The taskforce reviewed all previous studies of DoD management and organizations going back twenty years and completed over ninety interviews, including current and former DoD, public and private sector leaders. The assessments of CMO effectiveness since 2008 are focused on the performance of the CMO as an organizational entity, and is not an appraisal of any administration or appointee.

    Pension Fund Leaders Term Corporate Board Diversification ‘Unacceptably Slow,’ Call for Increased Attention from Investors, Corporate Boards

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PR16:21 Contact: Marc Lifsher June 1, 2016 [email protected] 916-653-2995 Pension Fund Leaders Term Corporate Board Diversification ‘Unacceptably Slow,’ Call for Increased Attention From Investors, Corporate Boards California State Treasurer John Chiang joins group of fiduciaries from funds with more than $1 trillion under management SACRAMENTO – California State Treasurer John Chiang today joined a group of state and local officials who contend that corporate boards have been too slow to diversify their ranks and that institutional investors should increase their focus on board diversity as a corporate governance priority. The joint statement emphasizes that racial and LGBT diversity as well as gender diversity are critical dimensions of effective board composition and performance. “There is broad agreement that a diverse corporate board is good for business,” Treasurer Chiang said. “Boards with directors, who possess a wide range of skills and experiences, are better positioned to oversee company strategy, risk mitigation and management performance.” Statistics show that board diversification has been slow—or has even regressed. White directors hold 85 percent of the board seats at the largest 200 S&P 500 companies, and the percentage of those boards with exclusively white directors has increased over the last decade. Men occupy 80 percent of all S&P 500 board seats. It is also estimated that there are fewer than 10 openly lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender directors among Fortune 500 companies. The 14 co-signers, many of them longtime leaders on the issue of board diversity, are fiduciaries for pension funds responsible for the retirement security of six million participants and with more than $1 trillion in assets under management.

In this breach-of-contract case, Plaintiff Andrea Lea, Auditor of the State of Arkansas (Arkansas), claims that Arkansas has obtained title under the state’s Unclaimed Property Act to a large but unknown number of matured, unredeemed United States savings bonds, and that the government has wrongfully failed to redeem those bonds. The bonds, issued by the United States Department of the Treasury (Treasury), carry thirty- or forty-year maturity periods. Although Arkansas claims that it owns the bonds, it does not possess the bond certificates that Treasury issued when the bonds were purchased.
