David Sancewich of PCA responded that Mesa West is being reclassified out of Fixed Income and into the Credit class. In addition, Mesa West III is in the early stages of the J curve in which there are few assets in the portfolio (the denominator) and yet fees (the numerator) have been expensed. With the reclassification to the Credit class, Mesa West will be categorized with other managers (currently in the Global Opps class and reclassified to Credit) with similar structures. Compared to these managers, Mesa West’s fees are not out of line. 5.04 Messrs. Sancewich and Lobdell reviewed and discussed the reports in relation to the Board’s investment policies. The Total Portfolio outperformed the policy benchmark over the quarter by 1.5%, but underperformed over the one-year period ending December 31, 2015, by (50) basis points, gross of fees. Over the three- and five-year periods, the total portfolio return exceeded the policy benchmark by 30 and 50 basis points, per annum, respectively. Trailing ten-year results underperformed the policy benchmark and SJCERA’s 7.50% return assumption, while Since Inception results exceeded both measures. The total portfolio underperformed the median public fund over all time periods measured. 5.05 Board accepted and filed the reports. 6.0 UPDATE ON CRO MANAGER SEARCH 6.01 Informational memo from PCA on status of process 7.0 REPORTS 7.01 Monthly Investment Performance Updates 01 Manager Performance Flash Report - January 2016 (provided at the meeting) 02 PCA Investment Market Risk Metrics - February 2016 7.02 PCA 2016 Ten-Year Capital Market Assumptions 7.03 PCA Manager Due Diligence Meetings and Reports 01 Manager Due Diligence Schedule 02 PCA Memo on meeting with PanAgora - January 2016 03 PCA Memo on meeting with Prima Capital - January 2016 04 PCA Memo on meeting with Stone Harbor - January 2016 7.04 CIO Report 7.05 Trustee and Executive Staff Travel 01 Conferences and Events Summary for 2016 SJCERA Financial Quarterly Meeting • 2/26/2016 • Page 2 a CRCEA Spring Conference 02 Summary of Pending Trustee and Executive Staff Travel a Travel Requiring Approval (2) 03 Summary of Completed Trustee and Executive Staff Travel a Conference/Travel Reports (3) - see agenda item 7.03 7.06 Report from Real Estate Committee 01 Committee Chair provided a brief summary of the outcome of the Real Estate Committee meeting and investments. 7.07 Report from Ad Hoc Transition Committee 01 Chair recognized CEO St. Urbain who advised the Board that, after further consideration, she has decided to change her plans and intends to remain in her current position as Chief Executive Officer of SJCERA.

  • Abacha Funds at Swiss Banks”
    Embargo: 4 September 2000 10 a.m. “Abacha funds at Swiss banks” Report of the Swiss Federal Banking Commission Berne, 30 August 2000 1. Object of the investigation and regulatory framework 1.1. Object and scope of the investigation In November 1999 the Swiss Federal Banking Commission (SFBC) began investiga- tions to ascertain whether a total of 19 banks in Switzerland had fully adhered to due diligence requirements (see 1.2 below) as set out in banking law and other applicable legislation in accepting and handling funds from the entourage of the former President of Nigeria, Sani Abacha. The SFBC did not institute any criminal proceedings in respect of money laundering or any other offence. Criminal proceedings in connection with Abacha-related funds are pending in Geneva. The request for judicial assistance from Nigeria does not fall within the SFBC’s remit; this is being handled by the Federal Office of Justice and by the in- vestigating authorities in Geneva. The administrative procedure undertaken by the SFBC involved an extraordinary amount of work. A very large quantity of documentary material needed to be evaluated. Discussions took place with the management of many of the banks concerned. At one bank all persons actually or potentially involved were formally questioned. The re- sources deployed by the SFBC were correspondingly large: 12 people, i.e. 14 % of the SFBC’s total staff, were at one time or another involved with the processing of the mat- ter and related investigatory tasks. 1.2. Due diligence obligations When accepting and depositing funds from customers, banks have a number of obliga- tions with regard to due diligence, with a view to upholding public trust in a properly op- erating banking system (‘maintenance of trust or reputation’).

  • The Zurich Banking Centre
    The Zurich banking centre Facts and figures 2015/2016 edition Foreword Zurich’s banking centre is of key importance to the region and a significant contributor to its economic value creation. It also plays a pivotal role as an employer, educator, lender, customer, taxpayer, and promoter of cultural institutions. The banking centre is currently in a phase of historic change. With business models being realigned and new regulations implemented, it is essential to establish the right operating environment for the financial sector and safeguard Zurich’s locational advantages for the future. The common goal for all those involved must be to position the financial centre as stable and forward-looking, thus enabling it to maintain its appeal both internationally and locally and continue to play an impor- tant economic role in the Zurich region. The Canton of Zurich and the Zurich Banking Association work to create the conditions in which the banking centre can flourish. They also endeavour to promote a reasoned debate on its future with publications such as this, which we hope you enjoy reading.

Last year we celebrated Einstein and Schiller. And 2006 – the Mozart anniversary year – also happens to be the year in which Credit Suisse marks its 150th birthday. But why look back? Doesn’t that mean standing still? At a time when it is all too easy to lose touch with tradition, there is hardly a risk of that happening. Taking a constructive approach to our heritage helps to give us a sense of identity and cements our collective memory. Without a memory, we do not have any experience – and experience is vital for drawing the right conclusions from history. Hence this anniversary issue of the Credit Suisse Bulletin. We are taking the opportunity to recall our founder, Alfred Escher, and the age in which he lived. For Switzerland it was an age of change and upheaval. Alfred Escher was an exceptional person, and his birth a stroke of good fortune for Switzerland. He was much more than just the man who, in 1856, founded Schweizerische Kreditanstalt, today’s Credit Suisse.
