STRATEGIC PLAN This agenda item supports statutory requirements and does not directly support the CalPERS Strategic Plan. INVESTMENT BELIEFS This agenda item supports statutory requirements and does not directly support the CalPERS Investment Beliefs.

The Holocaust Era Holdings Report is provided as Attachment 1. CalPERS is also required to investigate and report to the Legislature (SB 105, Chapter 341) on whether any corporations operating in Northern Ireland, in which assets of CalPERS are invested, are not in compliance with laws applicable in Northern Ireland. These laws in particular, adhere to the MacBride Principles of Nondiscrimination in employment and freedom of workplace opportunities. The Northern Ireland Holdings Report is provided as Attachment 2. Agenda Item 4b Investment Committee February 18, 2014 Page 2 of 3 ANALYSIS The 2013 MSCI Holocaust Era report (Attachment 3) identifies two CalPERS holdings in companies that are facing lawsuits in Japan or China over the use of forced or slave labor during World War II. -
