He next reviewed that IPERS has requested an incremental appropriation of $1.135 million in FY2022 and FY2023 to hire four new investment professionals. Governor Reynolds supported IPERS’ request, the next step is to get legislative support. Calendar Year 2020 Investment Performance Review – Rose Dean and Ali Kazemi Rose Dean and Ali Kazemi of Wilshire Associates reported that at December 31, 2020, the Total Fund performance for the calendar year was 13.5%, underperforming the policy benchmark return of 13.9%. The presentation also included a return/risk ranking, sources of risk and a performance review of each publicly traded asset class and the managers within each class. Internal Equity Management Update Discussions were held regarding developing an internal equity management program with a portion of IPERS’ assets. The Board will revisit the issue in September. IPERS Investment Staff Reports Beta Report Karl Koch reviewed the beta report, noting the Fund’s estimated market value of $39.528 billion as of March 12, 2021, the date of the report. All asset classes were within policy ranges. Alpha Report The investment staff reviewed the alpha report noting minor performance concerns continue with Janus Capital, a domestic equity manager, and IPM Informed Portfolio Management, a liquid absolute return strategy manager. 3 Risk Report Sriram Lakshminarayanan presented IPERS’ risk monitoring reports. He noted that active risk is back down to normal levels. CIO Updates Karl Koch updated the Board on several matters including the status of implementing ARP strategies and two upcoming RFPs. The first RFP will be for private markets investment tracking software, and the second for investment consulting services. The investment consultant search is required because the contract with Wilshire Associates expires September 30, 2021. Opportunistic Private Credit Manager Hiring Recommendations – Pat Reinhardt Pat Reinhardt explained that the opportunistic private credit search is being completed in two parts. In the first part of the search, multi-strategy and mezzanine submissions were evaluated. In the second part, the remainder of the submissions (specialty finance, real assets, special situations and other) will be evaluated. Staff requested the Investment Board approve the following hiring recommendations for the first part of the search: • Hire Marathon Asset Management and Crestline Investors each for $250 million allocations in multi-strategy opportunistic credit mandates subject to final due diligence and successful contract negations. Magnetar, CarVal Investors and Varde Partners will serve as bench managers for potential future funding if authorize by the Board at some future date. • Hire Ares Management and Audax Group each for $100 million allocations in mezzanine opportunistic credit mandates (and up to $25 million co-investment allocations for each), subject to final due diligence and successful contract negotiations. Blackstone (GSO) will serve as a bench manager for potential future funding if authorized by the Board at some future date. David Creighton made the motion to approve the hiring recommendations.

David Martin answered no and explained that double dipping is a term used to describe the act of receiving pension benefits while also accepting a salary, oftentimes from the same employer. Confirm Next Meeting Date The next regularly scheduled Investment Board meeting is Thursday, June 17, 2021, beginning at 8:30 a.m. Adjourn With no further business to come before the Investment Board, the meeting adjourned at 11:38 a.m. 5 June 8, 2021 MEMORANDUM TO: IPERS Investment Board Members FR: Greg Samorajski, CEO RE: Across-the-Board Salary Adjustment For fiscal years 2022 and 2023, Governor Reynolds authorized an across-the-board (ATB) salary increase of 1.10% for state of Iowa employees not covered by a collective bargaining agreement. However, for those directors whose salaries are set by a governing board other than the Governor, the salary adjustment must be approved by the appropriate governing body. The Investment Board sets the salary for IPERS’ chief executive officer, within the state of Iowa’s 000-pay plan, See §97B.3(1). Therefore, I request the Investment Board approve application of the Governor approved ATB to IPERS’ CEO position effective July 1, 2021 and July 1, 2022. 6 BETA REPORT IOWA PUBLIC EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM PORTFOLIO PRELIMINARY (Unreconciled) MARKET VALUES AT 6/4/2021 Actual Overlay Total Policy Difference PUBLIC MARKETS Domestic $ 9,123,348,502 $ 24,041,758 $ 9,147,390,261 $ 9,115,877,138 $ 31, 513,123 International $ 7,317,002,737 $ 13,259,710 $ 7,330,262,447 $ 7,251,834,557 $ 78, 427,890 Global Smart Beta $ 2,516,301,492 $ 2,516,301,492 $ 2,489,560,225 $ 26, 741,267 Total Equities $ 18,956,652,731 $ 18,993,954,199 $ 18,857,271,920 $ 136, 682,280 Core Plus $ 10,520,464,615 $ 200,320,340 $ 10,720,784,955 $ 10,771,413,836 $ (50,628,882) Public Credit $ 1,632,052,707 $ 1,632,052,707 $ 1,655,536,699 $ (23,483,992) Cash $ 636,253,145 $ (237,621,808) $ 398,631,337 $ 412,841,645 $ (14,210,308) PRIVATE MARKETS $ 9,955,753,094 $ 9,955,753,094 $ 10,004,112,193 $ (48,359,098) Private Equity $ 6,702,415,020 $ 6,702,415,020 $ 6,734,739,971 $ (32,324,951) Private Credit $ 1,110,844,142 $ 1,110,844,142 $ 1,117,591,525 $ ( 6,747,383) Private Real Assets $ 2,142,493,933 $ 2,142,493,933 $ 2,151,780,697 $ ( 9,286,764) TOTAL FUND $ 41,701,176,293 $ 41,701,176,293 $ - Actual Overlay Total Policy Difference PUBLIC MARKETS Domestic 21.88% 0.06% 21.94% 21.86% 0.08% International 17.55% 0.03% 17.58% 17.39% 0.19% Global Smart Beta 6.03% 6.03% 5.97% 0.06% Total Equities 45.46% 45.55% 45.22% 0.33% Core Plus 25.23% 0.48% 25.71% 25.83% -0.12% Public Credit 3.91% 3.91% 3.97% -0.06% Cash 1.53% -0.57% 0.96% 0.99% -0.03% PRIVATE MARKETS 23.87% 23.87% 23.99% -0.12% Private Equity 16.07% 16.07% 16.15% -0.08% Private Credit 2.66% 2.66% 2.68% -0.02% Private Real Assets 5.14% 5.14% 5.16% -0.02% TOTAL FUND 100.00% 100.00% 0.00% 7 BETA REPORT IOWA PUBLIC EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM PORTFOLIO PRELIMINARY (Unreconciled) MARKET VALUES AT 6/4/2021 PUBLIC PORTFOLIO 76.13% $ 31,745,423,198 Manager % of Manager % of Manager Name Asset Class Total Market Value Manager Name Asset Class Total Market Value Blackrock R2000 SAE 2.88% $ 262,424,597 Western 16.45% $ 1,730,091,738 Blackrock - U.S.

  • Venture Capital Postively Disrupts
    PRIVATE CLIENT SERIES VENTURE CAPITAL POSITIVELY DISRUPTS INTERGENERATIONAL INVESTING Families of wealth face three key questions about intergenerational wealth planning: how best to invest to sustain future generations; how best to engage the next genera- tion; and how best to ensure family unity endures. Often each question is addressed independently. We find that a conversation across generations about the impact of a meaningful venture capital (VC) allocation can help address all three questions in an integrated manner. Venture capital offers the potential for attractive returns relative to public equity markets, often in a tax-advantaged manner, thus allowing the portfolio to generate more wealth to support current and future generations. Bringing the next generation into the conversation about the changing investing landscape also offers the oppor- tunity for both generations to learn about the unique aspects of VC investing and the critical role it can play in the family’s portfolio. Furthermore, the vast potential that exists for making lasting impact through VC, both in terms of financial returns and contributions to society, may provide unifying experiences across generations. For many families, venture investing may provide a connection to the original roots of entrepreneurship that created the family wealth. As VC spurs continued innovation and industry disruption, families should consider the potential positive disruption the inclusion of VC can bring to their intergenerational investment plans. This paper provides some context for considering such an inclusion by discussing the investment potential and implications for interested investors. Venture, the source of future returns Whether it be cloud computing, machine learning, or artificial intelligence, emerging technologies are transforming many industries.

  • Quality Driven Growth: an Enduring Combination
    Investment Focus Quality-Driven Growth: An Enduring Combination Over the past several years, market observers and participants have focused to the point of obsession on the performance and possible trajectories of growth and value stocks. In our view, however, the quiet, steady dominance of a third style makes the debate beside the point. International quality stocks have consistently outperformed their regional growth and value peers for the last two decades. Quality-driven growth investing has been an enduring combination. Done properly, we believe it has the potential to identify companies across many sectors and industries with high levels of financial productivity, lasting competitive advantages, and reinvestment opportunities for growth. Collectively, we believe companies with these characteristics can deliver a consistent pattern of performance through different investment cycles. 2 Introduction market environments, with the notable exception of very strong rising markets, which tend to favor value stocks.

  • Private Equity
    Private Equity: Accomplishments and Challenges by Greg Brown, University of North Carolina; Bob Harris, University of Virginia; Steve Kaplan, University of Chicago; Tim Jenkinson, University of Oxford; and David Robinson, Duke University ince the 1980s, there has been an ongoing discussion about the role of private S equity (PE) in the economy. As investors have flocked to the asset class, voices critical of the negative social impact of PE have grown louder. In this article, we examine what is known from the academic literature about the effects of private equity on corporate productivity, the returns for investors, and possible broader economic and social consequences. We catalogue what we believe to be strong evidence of the overall benefits of PE-backed companies and investors in private equity, as well as spillovers in the form of broader gains in economic productivity. We also describe apparent instances of PE shortcomings in some specific industries where negative social impacts can be measured in some way. In our view, private equity is “capitalism in high gear” and, Back to the 1980s as such, subject to most of the same debates concerning Our account of private equity begins at the end of the 1980s, economic and social conditions in a free enterprise system. when hostile takeovers and other often highly leveraged While some argue that the 2020 version of capitalism transactions, including a relative newcomer called the lever- (as practiced in the U.S. and much of the world) is inef- aged buyout (or LBO), came under fierce attack in both the fective in coping with current social needs, much of the press and conventional business circles.

GLOBAL GADFLIES: APPLICATIONS AND IMPLICATIONS OF U.S.-STYLE CORPORATE GOVERNANCE ABROAD I. INTRODUCTION Over the past decade, international business participants have come to recognize that the structure of corporate governance' is more than a local custom to be accepted by default.2 Rather, such local structures are increasingly recognized as substantive factors affecting the relative desirability of particular markets.3 The Organization for Economic Co- operation and Development (OECD), a major international economic think- tank, has commented, "given the important institutional differences among countries concerning the corporate governance structure, some differences in the cost of capital are likely to persist in the future."4 The cost of capital is, of course, a major factor affecting a given markets' appeal to investors.' Competition to liberalize markets in order to attract foreign investors is the "most important policy trend of the 1990s for international investment."6 However, "the greater freedom this gives 1.
