Longtin Ballston Lake Christopher Morin Scarsdale Nicholas Smirensky Delmar October 29, 2020 Trustees of the Retirement System Board: On behalf of System staff, I present you with the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) of the New York State Teachers’ Retirement System (NYSTRS or the System) for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. This report complies with all requirements governing the preparation and contents of annual reports. History and Overview Created in 1921 by an act of the state Legislature, NYSTRS administers the fund from which most New York State public school teachers and administrators receive retirement and ancillary benefits. Retirement benefits are provided in accordance with New York State law and may not under the New York Constitution be diminished or impaired. A summary of NYSTRS benefits is provided on pages 16-17 of this report. The System is governed by a 10-member Board of Trustees, which sets policy and oversees operations consistent with its fiduciary obligations under applicable law. A staff of approximately 380 is responsible for the day-to-day administration. NYSTRS serves 822 employers – including public school districts, BOCES, institutions of higher education and charter schools that elect to participate. NYSTRS has 433,801 active and retired members, including beneficiaries (see chart below). Membership Figures — as of June 30, 2020 Active Members: 261,232 Retired Members: 166,008 Beneficiaries: 6,561 Total Membership: 433,801 See page 113 for additional membership information. The retirement fund is one of the 10 largest public funds in the U.S. based on portfolio size. NYSTRS is also consistently among the top-performing and best-funded public pension plans. Consistent receipt of required employee and employer contributions; a disciplined, risk-controlled investment policy; and partnerships with top-performing fund managers are major contributing factors to this stability. As a long-term investor with liabilities often not payable for three decades or more, Board and staff take a prudent approach to asset management. 10 Strong. Resilient. Secure. NYSTRS.org Introduction LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL (continued) Awards Recognition from various industry organizations further demonstrates the System’s commitment to excellence. Honors received within the most recently completed fiscal year include: Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting, awarded by the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) of the United States and Canada. Given in recognition of the System’s 2019 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR), the award certifies the report was prepared in conformity with the highest standards in government accounting and financial reporting.

  • Investment Committee Memorandum CVC Capital Partners VIII Private
    Investment Committee Memorandum CVC Capital Partners VIII Private Equity Asset Class April 21, 2020 Page 1 PA SERS Private Equity Investment Recommendation Investment Recommendation SERS’ Investment Office Staff and SERS’ Private Equity Consultant, StepStone Group, recommend that the State Employees’ Retirement System Investment Committee, subject to further legal due diligence, interview CVC Capital Partners (“CVC”, the “GP” or the “Firm”) at the April 21, 2020 Investment Committee Meeting to consider a potential investment of up to €50 million (approx. $54 million) in CVC Capital Partners VIII (“CVC VIII”, or the “Fund”). Investment Rationale Staff identified CVC VIII as a strong candidate for SERS’ capital commitment as it offers: Additional exposure to a high-quality private investment manager that has generated strong net returns since inception; Additional exposure to a private investment manager that outperforms private peers and public indices; Capital preservation as evidenced by a below market loss ratio as of 12/31/19; A strategy led by a senior team that has been at the firm for an average of 15 years and invested successfully across economic cycles; Increased exposure to attractive pan-European market; Exposure to a top performing manager well-known to SERS’ Staff; Consistency with SERS’ PE portfolio objectives. Investment Risks Staff identified the following potential risks of a commitment to CVC VIII: CVC has been slowly expanding into regions outside of Europe and North America with mixed results. CVC competes for investments in the highly competitive upper middle market and large market. Portfolio Implications A commitment to CVC VIII would be considered a 2020 vintage allocation to a fund which is categorized in the Private Equity asset class and Buyout sub-asset class.
