REPORT TO THE BOARD OF FIRE AND POLICE PENSION COMMISSIONERS

DATE: SEPTEMBER 15, 2016 ITEM: A.1

FROM: RAYMOND P. CIRANNA, GENERAL MANAGER

SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF ASSUMPTIONS FOR THE JUNE 30, 2016 RETIREE HEALTH ACTUARIAL VALUATION AND POSSIBLE BOARD ACTION

RECOMMENDATION

That the Board adopt the retiree health assumptions for the June 30, 2016 Retiree Health Valuation as recommended by The Segal Company (Segal).

DISCUSSION

The Los Angeles City Charter and Administrative Code require that the Board retain the services of a competent consulting actuary and on the advice of the actuary, adopt actuarial assumptions for the purpose of making the necessary actuarial studies, reports, investigations and valuations (e.g., mortality, service and salary experience of plan members, interest rates, investment rate of return, etc.). Segal develops the recommended assumptions in accordance with generally accepted actuarial principles and practices. Segal’s role is to advise and make recommendations to the Board, however, the Board has the ultimate responsibility and authority to determine and adopt the assumptions.

Beginning with the June 30, 2007 valuation, Segal has recommended that the health care trend assumptions used in the health valuation be reviewed annually due to the volatility and constant innovations present in the healthcare marketplace. Every year Segal publishes a set of health care trend assumptions based on the latest research and information available1. Segal has submitted their recommendations for LAFPP’s health care related actuarial assumptions in the attached letter (Attachment 1).

For the June 30, 2016 valuation, Segal continues to separate the medical trend rate assumption for Medicare and non-Medicare plans, and the trend rates for the two types of plans are the same again this year. However, in future years, Segal’s analysis may result in separate trend rates for the two plan types (e.g., due to the fact that Medicare rates are determined by the Federal Government, whereas non-Medicare rates are determined by private insurance companies).

In developing its first-year health trend assumptions, Segal considers a mix of health industry expectations as well as plan specific information:

1 At the time of this writing, the final published trend survey is still being formatted and will be provided to the Board if available in time for today’s meeting. In the absence of receiving the final report, the draft report will be provided to the Board.

1. Claims experience, enrollment and cost data are blended with Segal’s internal guidelines, typically expressed as a range (e.g., the trend may vary between 6-8% depending on plan design, financial condition, and arrangements with health care providers). 2. The trend guidance in part 1 above is used for short-term health care projections. Segal then makes further adjustments to reflect retiree health benefit costs over the long-term (e.g., 100 years into the future).

Segal reviewed the change in premiums for the Board-approved health plans over the last five and ten-year periods and found that, on average, premiums for medical plans available to LAFPP members have increased at a rate less than the trends assumed in the valuations.

Weighted Avg. Premium Increase Approved Trend Assumption

10.00% 9.00% 9.00% 8.50% 8.00% 8.00% 7.30% 7.00% 6.75% 7.00% 6.00% 6.20% 5.00% 5.20% 4.00%

3.00% 3.30% 2.70% 2.00% 2012- 13 2013- 14 2014- 15 2015- 16 2016- 17

Segal also considered the regional differences in health care trends when developing their assumptions. Segal’s report points out that while health care costs may be higher in the western U.S., that does not necessarily result in higher trends. Costs may remain higher, but the annual change, or trend, may be lower than in other regions. Segal’s trend assumption is set to model the changes in costs.

Segal’s recommended health care cost trend rate for the June 30, 2016 valuation has a first year trend rate of 6.50%, then grading down by 0.25% each year until an ultimate rate of 5.00% is reached after six years (FY 2022 and later).

6/30/15 6/30/15 6/30/16 6/30/16 Valuation Valuation Valuation Valuation Fiscal Year Trend: Trend: Trend: Trend: Non-Medicare Medicare Non-Medicare Medicare 2015-2016 6.75% 6.75% 2016-2017 6.50% 6.50% 6.50% 6.50% 2017-2018 6.25% 6.25% 6.25% 6.25% 2018-2019 6.00% 6.00% 6.00% 6.00% 2019-2020 5.75% 5.75% 5.75% 5.75% 2020-2021 5.50% 5.50% 5.50% 5.50%

Board Report Page 2 September 15, 2016 2021-2022 5.25% 5.25% 5.25% 5.25% 2022 and later 5.00% 5.00% 5.00% 5.00%

As in prior years, staff has reviewed the medical trend surveys of other major consulting firms and determined that Segal’s recommended health care trend rate of 6.50% for the June 30, 2016 valuation is consistent with other surveys. Staff reviewed medical trend surveys from Aon Hewitt, Milliman and PwC, and the table below shows the expected medical trend from those surveys (Attachment 2).

FIRM MEDICAL TREND Aon Hewitt (2016) 5.7% Milliman (2015-16) 4.7% PwC (2017) 6.5%

The per capita costs assumption, which has been adjusted to reflect current medical and dental plan premiums paid by LAFPP pensioners, has been reviewed by staff and found to be accurate. In accordance with Actuarial Standard of Practice No. 6, Segal is utilizing age-adjusted per-capita costs based on the demographics of the group being valued and the group’s total expected claims or premiums. As with last year, Segal recommends that the Medicare Part B Premium and Dental Premium trend rates remain unchanged at 5% for all years.

All other assumptions and methods will be consistent with those recommended in the June 30, 2010 to June 30, 2013 triennial experience study, which was adopted by the Board on July 17, 2014, including the economic and demographic assumptions. (NOTE: Segal will conduct a new three-year experience study in 2017.)

Segal has again noted the potential tax liability related to health care reform that possibly may need to be reported in future valuations. Specifically, the Affordable Care Act will impose a 40% excise tax on high-cost employer plans beginning in 2020. Segal notes that Statements No. 74 and 75 by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, for financial reporting purposes, are expected to require the inclusion of the excise tax in the liability. Statement No. 74 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2016 for plan reporting and Statement No. 75 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2017 for employer reporting. For the June 30, 2016 valuation Segal will continue to exclude the projected excise tax from the valuation results for both reporting and funding purposes.

Messrs. Paul Angelo and Andy Yeung of The Segal Company will be present at today’s Board meeting to discuss the recommended assumptions.

BUDGET

If adopted, the recommended assumptions will be used in the June 30, 2016 valuation, which will determine the City’s contribution rate for the 2017-2018 fiscal year. Additionally, if these retiree health care trend assumptions are adopted, the Board could increase the July 1, 2017 maximum retired member health subsidy by up to 6.50% next year.

POLICY

There are no policy changes as a result of this report.

Re: Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan Assumptions and Methods Recommended for the June 30, 2016 Retiree Health Actuarial Valuation

Dear Ray:

We have provided in this letter the health care related actuarial assumptions that we recommend to the Board for use in the June 30, 2016 retiree health valuation.

The health care trend assumptions used in the health valuation are reviewed annually. Every year Segal Consulting publishes a set of health care trend assumptions based on the latest research and information available to our health actuaries. The health care trend assumptions take into account factors such as: recent and expected premium increases affecting our clients, changes in utilization of health care and cost shifting from Medicare.

Other assumptions such as the proportion of members expected to be covered by each health benefit provider (e.g. Kaiser, etc.) can sometimes be volatile due to the dynamic nature of the health care market place. That projection is typically based on the enrollment experience among the current retirees during the most recent annual open enrollment.

Following are our recommended assumptions for the June 30, 2016 health plan valuation:

1. Health care trend assumptions – The detailed health care trend assumptions we are recommending are outlined in Item 1 of Attachment One.

In developing first-year health care trend assumptions, a mix of health industry expectations and plan specific information is used as follows:

Benefits, Compensation and HR Consulting. Member of The Segal Group. Offices throughout the United States and Canada ATTACHMENT 1

Mr. Raymond P. Ciranna September 9, 2016 Page 2

a. Claims experience, enrollment data and cost data (although credibility varies by group size) is blended with internal Segal guidelines, which are typically expressed as a range (e.g., trend may vary between 6-8%1 depending on factors like plan design, financial condition, and arrangements with health care providers). Attention is given to past experience, industry expectation and expected future changes (e.g., plan design changes, demographic/enrollment changes, carrier/vendor contract changes and strategic program initiatives).

b. The trend guidance developed according to the process outlined in (a) is to be used for short-term health care projections. Segal then makes further adjustments to reflect that retiree health valuations project benefits over the long-term (as far as 100 years in the future). Segal’s national health care practice recommends the first- year trend first rates be set at 80% to 95% of Segal standard health trend rates. We make this adjustment because: • Premium rates for short-term projections include margin for adverse claims experience (not appropriate in retiree health valuations). This is consistent with our survey results, which indicate that projected market trends are consistently higher than the actual experience once retrospectively reviewed. • The short-term trend rates developed according to (a) reflect some increasing morbidity due to aging over the short-term. Retiree health valuations already reflect morbidity in the age/sex factors (shown in Item 2(e) of Attachment One) to reflect morbidity due to changing demographics over time. To avoid double counting the effect of morbidity, the trend is lowered slightly for retiree health care valuations. With this mix, we then take into consideration long-term plan cost stability (i.e. reducing year-to-year contribution rate fluctuations) by looking at the prior year’s trend assumption. If the trend for the upcoming year (the second year trend in the prior valuation) fits well within the updated guidelines and recent premium experience, we favor setting first-year trend equal to second-year trend from the prior valuations unless there are material changes in other factors supporting a change in the second-year trend.

The trends begin with selecting the first-year increase for LAFPP, usually within the Segal guidelines, and then selecting a step for grading down the trends over several years to an ultimate long-term trend.

Similar to the 2015 valuation, the recommended trend rates for Medicare and non- Medicare medical plans happen to be the same. In future years, if our analysis suggests, we may use separate trend rates for the two types of medical plans. Medicare rate changes are determined by the budgeting process in the Federal Government, whereas Non-Medicare rate changes are determined by private insurance carriers. Due to the

1 Ranges were narrowed from last year from 6-9% for HMOs and 6-10% for PPOs.

different funding sources and dynamics involved, rate changes in the future may differ between Medicare and Non-Medicare plans.

For this valuation, we are recommending the first year trend rate be set at 6.50%2 (this is unchanged from the second year trend rate of 6.50% assumed in the June 30, 2015 valuation), then grading down by 0.25% each year until an ultimate rate of 5.00% is reached after six years. In effect, this means the trend assumptions are unchanged from the previous valuation.

As shown in Attachment Two health care premiums for the medical plans available to members of LAFPP have increased at a rate of 4.9% averaged over the last five years and 5.5% over the last ten years. These increases were less than the medical trend assumptions used in the valuations: 7.8% averaged over the last five years and 8.8% over the last ten years. The reduction in trend assumption is consistent with preliminary guidance provided by Segal’s national health care practice.

In addition to reviewing the change in premiums over the last five years, we have considered regional differences in health care trends when developing our assumption. Note that there is not necessarily a correlation between differences in costs and trends between regions. Health care costs may be higher in the western US, but that does not necessarily result in higher trends. Costs may remain higher, but the annual change, or trend¸ may be lower than in other regions. Our trend assumption is set to model the changes in costs.

While a recent publication by the Kaiser Family Foundation3 did not find region of the US to be a significant factor that contributed to variations in cost among health plans, we believe variations in cost and trend both to be more readily explained by other factors such as demographics, plan design among those health plans, and the competitiveness of a local market. This is why we find it necessary to base our retiree health valuation on the most up to date medical premiums, which are developed to account for those factors.

Segal’s 2016 Trend Survey did show variations in health care trend by region. However, the West region includes a variety of rural and urban areas. Rural areas like Alaska and much of the Mountain West states have health care markets that are less developed than those in California and have less competition among both providers and health plans. Therefore, relying just on the observation of higher average trend for the West may not be totally appropriate for an urban area like the City of Los Angeles. A review of the California data for our trend survey indicates expected trends very much in line with trends expected nationally.

2 If approved by the Board, the 6.50% assumption would be used in the June 30, 2016 valuation and applied to the attached 2016/2017 medical premiums to estimate the projected 2017/2018 medical premiums. 3 A Comparison of the Availability and Cost of Coverage for Workers in Small Firms and Large Firms: Update from the 2015 Employer Health Benefits Survey.

Mr. Raymond P. Ciranna September 9, 2016 Page 4

It is also important to remain mindful that the trend assumptions in the Retiree Health Valuation model expected changes in health care premiums. The market and survey information covered to this point have addressed expected changes in health care claims. Premium and claims trends may vary for a variety of reasons, including changes in benefits, health or demographic risk, provider contracting, reserve requirements, how carriers pool risk, and other factors. The premiums are developed to account for all of those factors.

In order to review plan specific experience, we have been provided with a recent presentation prepared by the health consultant retained by LAFRA (Fire) and LAPRA (Police) which shows, for instance, increases in claim costs of over 9% from 2014 to 2015 for the LAPRA (Police) Blue Cross (Anthem) HMO plan and increases in claim costs that vary from over 10% to over 20% for the various services from 2014 to 2015 for the Blue Cross (Anthem) PPO plan. As noted by the health consultant in their presentation, the increases in claim costs to provide prescription drugs for the PPO and the HMO plans were even higher.

When evaluating the above information, we want to draw to LAFPP’s attention the following factors: • Even though there are some correlations, an increase in the claim costs from one year to the next may not automatically translate into a higher medical premium going forward. This is because the increase in the claims costs would have been factored by the health plans when they provide LAFPP with the premium renewals for the next year that we again have always used as a starting point for our valuation. • According to the health consultant, some of the increase in claim costs to provide prescription drugs might have come from members who could have been covered under the employer’s Workers Compensation program. We understand from the presentation that such increases are being addressed and it might be somewhat premature to determine to what extent the cost of prescription drugs might be a driver of continued premium increases or if this could be a one- time jump that might level off in future years. The experience presented in the report should be accounted for in the July 1, 2016 premiums

After considering the above factors, we have decided to not adjust our 6.50% first-year trend assumption to reflect the local City of Los Angeles experience.

2. In developing the ultimate health care trend assumption of 5.00%, we have continued to rely on Segal’s research and analysis on long-term costs in the health care market as a whole.

5445631v6/07916.003 ATTACHMENT 1

Mr. Raymond P. Ciranna September 9, 2016 Page 5

3. Per capita health care costs – These per capita costs are used to project the premiums for current active members when they retire. Based on the percentage of retired members, spouses and beneficiaries electing health coverage and the proportion of members enrolled in each available medical plan, we have developed the per capita health premium costs for a member who is covered in fiscal year 2016-2017.

Based on the June 30, 2016 membership data, we have provided in Items 2(a) and 2(b) of Attachment One the observed election rates among the different medical plans. The medical coverage election assumption is shown in item 3(j) of Attachment One.

We have shown in Item 2(c) of Attachment One the per capita costs for members subject to the retiree medical freeze as those members have not agreed to make an additional 2% member contribution.

In accordance with Actuarial Standard of Practice (ASOP) No. 6, Measuring Retiree Group Benefits Program Periodic Costs or Actuarially Determined Contributions, we will continue to utilize age-adjusted per-capita costs using adjustment factors shown in Item 2(e) of Attachment One.

4. We understand that Harbor Port Police, upon reaching eligibility to retire, have a choice of retiree medical plans with contracts at the Los Angeles City Employees’ Retirement System (LACERS), but will be eligible for a subsidy up to the LAFPP maximum medical subsidy limit. In order to estimate the liability in the June 30, 2016 valuation, we will assume that Harbor Port Police will select similar plans at LACERS roughly in proportion to those assumed for future LAFPP Police retirees, shown in 2(a) and 2(b). For pre-65 retirees, we will assume that 65% will enroll in the Anthem Blue Cross PPO and 35% will enroll in the Kaiser Permanente HMO, available through LACERS. For retirees over age 65, we will assume that 85% will enroll in the Anthem Blue Cross PPO Medicare plan and 15% will enroll in the Kaiser Permanente Senior Advantage HMO, available through LACERS. We note that based on a relatively small population of 11 Harbor Port retirees, about 60% were enrolled in Kaiser, with the remainder enrolled in other plans. We will continue to monitor the data as more Harbor Port retirees enter the Plan and determine if the data warrants a change in assumption to project a greater proportion of future retirees enrolling in the lower-premium Kaiser HMO.

5. The per capita costs and election rates for the dental plan for the June 30, 2016 valuation are also provided in Items 2(d) and 3(k) of Attachment One, respectively.

6. Other assumptions – The other assumptions and methods will be consistent with those we will use in our June 30, 2016 pension valuation. These include the economic and demographic assumptions and are highlighted in Item 3 of Attachment One.

IMPACT OF HEALTH CARE REFORM

As stated in our June 30, 2011 retiree health report, based on direction provided to Segal, the impact of the excise tax that will be imposed in 20204 by the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and related statutes on certain health plans was not included in calculating the contribution rates for the employer5. Statements No. 74 and 75 by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) for financial reporting purposes is expected to require the inclusion of the excise tax in the liability. Statement No. 74 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2016 for plan reporting and Statement No. 75 is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2017 for employer reporting.

For the June 30, 2016 valuation, we will continue to exclude the projected excise tax from the valuation results for both financial reporting and funding purposes (i.e., the projected excise tax will not be used to calculate the liability and to set the contribution rates for the employer).

We look forward to discussing this with you. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Maximum Dental Subsidy

Because almost all current retirees enrolled (see Item 3(k) for election assumption) in a dental plan are paying a premium in excess of the maximum subsidy, we will assume that 100% of future retirees with dental coverage will receive the maximum subsidy.

3. Other Assumptions and Methods

In the June 30, 2016, valuation, we will also apply the following assumptions and methodologies:

a. Discount rate: 7.50% per annum, as recommended in our most recent economic assumptions study. b. Demographic assumptions: These include the incidence of service retirement, disability retirement, withdrawal, deferred vested retirement and death. We will apply the same assumptions that we recommended in the July 1, 2010 - June 30, 2013 experience study and adopted by the Board on July 17, 2014. c. Funding methodologies: The Entry Age cost method, level percent of pay method will continue to be used in this valuation. d. Expected annual rate of increase in the Board’s health subsidy amount: We will assume that the Board’s health subsidy amount will increase with the medical trend shown on page 2. e. Percentage of retirees over age 65 covered by Medicare Parts A and B: Because all active employees hired after 1986 must elect Medicare A and B coverage, we will assume 100% of future retirees will be covered by Medicare Parts A and B. f. Assets: We will use the seven-year smoothed actuarial value of asset method (with 60% to 140% Market Value Corridor) in our valuation. g. Implicit Subsidy: Unless directed otherwise by LAFPP, for valuation purposes, we will continue to proceed as if the insurance rates were underwritten separately for actives and retirees – that no implicit subsidy need be valued. We are aware that a small (less than 3%) proportion of retirees under age 65 (enrolled in Fire Blue Cross and Fire California Care) may be receiving an implicit subsidy. However, because we consider the potential liability to be insignificant, we recommend that for the June 30, 2016 valuation, all premiums be treated as retiree-only.

6 2016 Global Medical Trend Rates ATTACHMENT 2 Call to Action

The findings addressed in this report suggest that employers need to accelerate their efforts at helping employees to both understand their own health risks and begin to take steps to improve their health . Rising costs and the increased prevalence of chronic conditions are global phenomena—and regardless of the underlying medical insurance system, employers will experience added organizational cost and lost workforce productivity if these trends continue .

The wellness initiative summaries in this report should be useful in understanding wellness and cost mitigation efforts being undertaken by employers . However, the underlying causes of illness and risk factors vary by region and even from country to country within a region . It is therefore important to carefully target employer initiatives to the specific situation surrounding each medical plan .

Aon Hewitt | Survey Report 21 ATTACHMENT 2 Appendix

Trend Rate Overview

The trend rates shown in this report represent national averages and are the predicted increase in premium costs . Trend increases for a specific company may vary significantly from these trend rates due to regional cost variations, company plan design, company demographics, and other factors . In addition, insured rate increases may be higher or lower than these trend rates based on an insurance company’s profitability, the plan’s claims-loss ratio, the plan design, insured demographics, and other factors . It is important to note that these trend rates might not be appropriate for other purposes .

Medical trend rate is defined as percentage of change in the cost of health care prior to any cost-containment measure undertaken by plan sponsors .

The components of health care trend that we have considered include:

• Pri ce inflation . This is the projected annual change in the domestic retail consumer price index of the health care element in each country . In the absence of information on projected inflation for the medical plan component in any given country, we have used the change in the overall consumer price index .

• Lev eraging impact on fixed-amount elements of plan design . This is the additional cost added to a health plan due to the leveraging effect of increasing expected claims on unchanging deductibles, copays, or out-of-pocket maximums .

• Utilization . This component reflects an increase in the demand for medical care services in response to factors such as increased access to medical services, plan design, participant age, and new medical technology and services .

• Technology advances . This reflects the change in cost due to new procedures, information, experience, and equipment replacing older techniques .

• Cost shifting . This reflects a provider of medical services such as a government social health care program transferring its cost to private-sector supplementary plans .

The heart of the matter 2017 will be a year of equilibrium for medical costs. The forces that increase health costs are being tempered by a demand for value in the New Health Economy. Compared with a period of double-digit trend growth in the last decade, flat growth may feel like a win to health industry leaders.

2 Medical Cost Trend: Behind the Numbers 2017 ATTACHMENT 2

Putting trends in perspective A historical perspective offers a wider lens to better understand the 2017 medical cost trend. This long-term view shows us that employer healthcare costs have fluctuated over the years in cycles, how price and utilization interplay in the cost equation, and which parts of the health system are the largest and fastest-growing components of cost.

Growth rates in tend to peak after several years of peak.

Decline in utilization The overall healthcare trend, as trend puts more focus measured by employers benefit cost, can be broken into price based on the on price trend Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the Healthcare cost can be broken down various components of health benefit to the two simplest components—the costs and a residual, which includes unit price of services and the volume utilization and other non-price changes 4 and intensity of use of those services, (see Figure 2). known as utilization. Understanding In the early 2000s, price and utilization trends in these components is key were both major contributors to to understanding changes in overall healthcare trend growth. Since then, spending: Are costs rising or falling? the utilization trend has declined while Are consumers using more or fewer price trend grew. Future reductions in services and products? medical cost trend growth will require a continued focus on prices but also delivery and access changes that might impact utilization.

24. PwC Health Research Institute forecast is based on estimates reported by Truven Health Analytics and the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES). Forecasts are based on a population of about 3.3 million patients who have Hepatitis C in the United States, an estimated 35,000 commercial insurance patients who received treatment per year under prior medication regimes and an estimated 16,000 new cases of Hep C contracted each year. The number of patients with commercial insurance treated with new Hep C therapies is assumed to increase to 74,250 in 2014, 91,630 in 2015, and peak at 121,176 in 2016. The costs of Hep C treatment with the new medications are adjusted to reflect discounts and the costs of treatment with older medications but not to reflect savings from lower non-drug medical costs. 25. Dan Mangan, Cholesterol drug cost worries linger even after spending report, August 6, 2015, http://www.cnbc.com/2015/08/06/cholesterol- drug-cost-worries-linger-even-after-spending-report.html. 26. The costs of treatments with all three new medications are adjusted to reflect the costs of treatments with older medications, but not to reflect savings from lower non-drug medical costs.

The high cost, high volume drug was assumed to have the same commercially insured patient treated population as Sovaldi in its first year on the market of 2017 – 74,250 patients. The price was set at $100,000 in 2017, an incremental increase in price of $68,152 over an old, existing therapy.

The low-cost, high-volume drug was priced at $3,600 per year and was estimated to treat 100,000 patients in 2017. With these stats, the drug would achieve over $1 billion in sales its first year on the market, making it a “blockbuster” drug. The $3,600 price tag was assumed to be an incremental increase in price of $2,453 over an old, existing treatment.

The high-cost, low-volume drug was priced at $100,000, just like the “high cost, high volume drug”, but was estimated to treat 24,750 patients in its first year on the market. Also, like the high cost, high volume drug, it was assumed to be an incremental increase in price of $68,152 over an old, existing therapy. 27.

17 Medical Cost Trend: Behind the Numbers 2017 ATTACHMENT 2 Each year, PwC’s Health Research Institute (HRI) projects the growth of private About this research medical costs in the coming year and identifies the leading drivers of the trend. Insurance companies use medical cost trend to help set premiums by estimating what the same health plan this year will cost next year. In turn, employers use the information to make adjustments in benefit plan design to help offset cost increases. The report identifies and explains what it refers to as “inflators” and “deflators” to describe why and how the healthcare spending growth rate is affected.

This forward-looking report is based on the best available information through May 2016. HRI conducted interviews in February, March and April 2016 with 12 health plan executives (whose companies cover more than 100 million people) about their estimates for 2017 and the factors driving those trends. Findings from PwC’s 2016 Health and Well-Being Touchstone survey of more than 1,100 employers from 37 industries and PwC’s national consumer survey of more than 1,000 US adults are also included. Additionally, HRI analyzed the findings of a survey of more than 10 health plans belonging to the Health Plan Alliance. HRI also examined government data sources, journal articles and conference proceedings in determining the 2017 growth rate.

DEPARTMENT OF FIRE AND POLICE PENSIONS 701 E. 3rd Street, Suite 200 Los Angeles, CA 90013 (213) 279-3000

REPORT TO THE BOARD OF FIRE AND POLICE PENSION COMMISSIONERS

DATE: SEPTEMBER 15, 2016 ITEM: A.2

FROM: RAYMOND P. CIRANNA, GENERAL MANAGER

SUBJECT: GOVERNMENTAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (GAS) 68 ACTUARIAL VALUATION BASED ON JUNE 30, 2015 MEASUREMENT DATE FOR EMPLOYER REPORTING AS OF JUNE 30, 2016; GOVERNMENTAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS BOARD STATEMENT NO. 68 REPORT FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2015; AND POSSIBLE BOARD ACTION

RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the Board:

1. Review and approve the Governmental Accounting Standards (GAS) 68 Actuarial Valuation as of June 30, 2016; and, 2. Review and approve the Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 68 Report as of and for the Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2015.

BACKGROUND

In June 2012, the Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) issued Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions – an Amendment of GASB Statement No. 27, effective for plan years beginning on or after June 15, 2014. The primary objective of GAS 68 is to improve accounting and financial reporting of state and local government pension information. Requirements are intended to enhance “decision-usefulness” of this information. Plan sponsors began implementing GAS 68 in their 2015 financial statements.

GASB 68 requires employers to record their proportionate share of the total pension liability less the plan’s fiduciary net position (i.e., net pension liability) on the face of their financial statements. A proportionate share of the total pension expense and collective deferred inflows of resources and deferred outflows of resources of the pension fund is also reflected.

DISCUSSION

LAFPP’s plan year beginning July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016 is the second year for which GAS 68 applies. Segal Consulting prepared the GAS 68 Actuarial Valuation Based on June 30, 2015 Measurement Date for Employer Reporting as of June 30, 2016 (GAS 68 Report). Simpson & Simpson Certified Public Accountants audited Segal’s’ GAS 68 Report as reflected in the GASB Statement No. 68 Report that includes the Independent Auditor’s Report, Schedule of Pension Amounts by Entity, and Notes to Schedule of Pension Amounts by Entity.

Once approved by the Board, these reports will be provided to the City with the following disclaimer:

To complete their financial statements, each “Employer” (the City, and the Harbor Department) will need to record its own proportionate share of collective pension amounts for all benefits provided through LAFPP”s pension plan. LAFPP has provided a schedule of pension amounts by Employer, prepared by the independent actuary Segal Consulting in accordance with the methodology set forth in GASB 68, based on data maintained and provided by LAFPP. This schedule has been audited by independent auditor Simpson & Simpson Certified Public Accountants. Please note that LAFPP is not responsible for Employers’ compliance with the requirements of GASB 68. Employers are solely responsible for accurately presenting their financial statements within the requirements of GASB 68.

CONCLUSION

The GAS 68 Report contains information and schedules that will assist the City and the Harbor Department in implementing reporting requirements for 2016. The GASB 68 rules redefine pension liability and expense for financial reporting, and do not apply to contribution amounts for pension funding purposes. For example, the GASB 68 rules impact financial reporting with respect to pension liability, total pension liability, and the treatment of the Deferred Retirement Option Plan (DROP), and do not impact contribution amounts or funding policies and practices.

BUDGET

Costs up to $18,000 are budgeted.

POLICY

There is no policy impact associated with this report.

SECTION 1: Valuation Summary for the City of Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan

Purpose This report has been prepared by Segal Consulting to present certain disclosure information required by Governmental Accounting Standard (GAS) 68 as of June 30, 2016. The results used in preparing this GAS 68 report are comparable to those used in preparing the Governmental Accounting Standard (GAS) 67 report for the plan based on a reporting date and a measurement date as of June 30, 2015. This valuation is based on:  The benefit provisions of the Pension Plan, as administered by the Board of Commissioners;  The characteristics of covered active members, terminated vested members, and retired members and beneficiaries as of June 30, 2014, provided by LAFPP;  The assets of the Plan as of June 30, 2015, provided by LAFPP;  Economic assumptions regarding future salary increases and investment earnings; and  Other actuarial assumptions, regarding employee terminations, retirement, death, etc.

Significant Issues in Valuation Year The following key findings were the result of this actuarial valuation:  The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) rules only define pension liability and expense for financial reporting purposes, and do not apply to contribution amounts for pension funding purposes. Employers and plans can still develop and adopt funding policies under current practices.  When measuring pension liability GASB uses the same actuarial cost method (Entry Age method) and the same type of discount rate (expected return on assets) as LAFPP uses for funding. Note that, with regard to the actuarial cost method, the GASB rules use a version of the Entry Age method where the Total Pension Liability (TPL) must be fully accrued by the time a member either enters the DROP or is expected to elect the DROP. This is in contrast to the version of the Entry Age method used for funding, where the Actuarial Accrued Liability (AAL) is not fully accrued until members retire from employment after participation in the DROP. Under GASB, actives who are expected to enroll in the DROP in the future would report an annual Service Cost that is higher than the Normal Cost used for funding, while members already in the DROP would report no Service Cost even though their Normal Cost continues to accrue. As the service retirement rates we use in the funding valuation have been developed based on the later date of exit from the DROP, we have adjusted those rates in this valuation so that they are based on the earlier date of first participation in the DROP. Those rates are provided in Section 3.

SECTION 1: Valuation Summary for the City of Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan

 The Net Pension Liability (NPL) is equal to the difference between the TPL and the Plan’s Fiduciary Net Position. The Plan’s Fiduciary Net Position is equal to the market value of assets and therefore, the NPL measure is very similar to an Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (UAAL) calculated on a market value basis.  For this report, the reporting dates for the employer are June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015. The NPLs measured as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 have been determined by rolling forward the TPL from actuarial valuations as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The Plan’s Fiduciary Net Position (plan assets) was valued as of the measurement dates. Consistent with the provisions of GAS 68, the assets and liabilities measured as of June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014 are not adjusted or rolled forward to the respective June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 reporting dates.  The NPL increased from $1.872 billion as of June 30, 2014 to $2.039 billion as of June 30, 2015, mainly due to the loss from an approximate return on the market value of assets of 4.0% during 2014/2015 that was less than the assumption of 7.50% used in the June 30, 2014 valuation (that loss was about $0.6 billion). That loss is offset somewhat by gains from lower than expected salary increases and COLA increases during 2013/2014 (because liabilities were rolled forward from June 30, 2013 to June 30, 2014, these gains are first reported in the June 30, 2015 results). Changes in these values during the last two fiscal years ending June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2015 can be found in Exhibit 5.  The discount rates used to determine the TPL and NPL as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 were 7.50%, following the same assumptions used by LAFPP in the pension funding valuation as of June 30, 2014. Details on the derivation of the discount rate can be found in Appendix A of Section 3. Various other information that is required to be disclosed can be found throughout Exhibits 1 through 13 in Section 2.  It should be noted that there are two member categories in LAFPP: (1) the Harbor Port Police (an enterprise fund) and (2) the other members associated with the City’s Fire and Police Departments. We have been directed by LAFPP to provide the pension expense and NPL for each of the two member categories. Both the pension expense and the NPL for each member category have been obtained from internal valuation results which have been developed separately for each of the members associated with the Fire and Police Departments and the Harbor Port Police. The Plan Fiduciary Net Position for each membership category was estimated by adjusting the valuation value of assets for each membership category by the ratio of the total LAFPP Plan Fiduciary Net Position to total LAFPP valuation value of assets.  Results shown in this report exclude any employer contributions made after the measurement date of June 30, 2015. Employers should consult with their auditors to determine the deferred outflow that should be created for these contributions.

SECTION 1: Valuation Summary for the City of Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan

Important Information about Actuarial Valuations In order to prepare an actuarial valuation, Segal Consulting (“Segal”) relies on a number of input items. These include:  Plan of benefits Plan provisions define the rules that will be used to determine benefit payments, and those rules, or the interpretation of them, may change over time. It is important to keep Segal informed with respect to plan provisions and administrative procedures, and to review the plan description in this report (as well as the plan summary included in our funding valuation report) to confirm that Segal has correctly interpreted the plan of benefits.  Participant data An actuarial valuation for a plan is based on data provided to the actuary by LAFPP. Segal does not audit such data for completeness or accuracy, other than reviewing it for obvious inconsistencies compared to prior data and other information that appears unreasonable. It is important for Segal to receive the best possible data and to be informed about any known incomplete or inaccurate data.  Assets This valuation is based on the market value of assets as of the valuation date, as provided by LAFPP.  Actuarial assumptions In preparing an actuarial valuation, Segal projects the benefits to be paid to existing plan participants for the rest of their lives and the lives of their beneficiaries. This projection requires actuarial assumptions as to the probability of death, disability, withdrawal, and retirement of each participant for each year. In addition, the benefits projected to be paid for each of those events in each future year reflect actuarial assumptions as to salary increases and cost-of-living adjustments. The projected benefits are then discounted to a present value, based on the assumed rate of return that is expected to be achieved on the plan’s assets. There is a reasonable range for each assumption used in the projection and the results may vary materially based on which assumptions are selected. It is important for any user of an actuarial valuation to understand this concept. Actuarial assumptions are periodically reviewed to ensure that future valuations reflect emerging plan experience. While future changes in actuarial assumptions may have a significant impact on the reported results, that does not mean that the previous assumptions were unreasonable. The user of Segal’s actuarial valuation (or other actuarial calculations) should keep the following in mind:  The valuation is prepared at the request of the Board to assist the sponsors of the Fund in preparing items related to the pension plan in their financial reports. Segal is not responsible for the use or misuse of its report, particularly by any other party.  An actuarial valuation is a measurement of the plan’s assets and liabilities at a specific date. Accordingly, except where otherwise noted, Segal did not perform an analysis of the potential range of future financial measures. The actual long-term cost of the plan will be determined by the actual benefits and expenses paid and the actual investment experience of the plan.  If LAFPP is aware of any event or trend that was not considered in this valuation that may materially change the results of the valuation, Segal should be advised, so that we can evaluate it.

EXHIBIT 1 General Information – “Financial Statements”, Note Disclosures and Required Supplementary Information for a Single-Employer Pension Plan Plan Description Plan administration. The City of Los Angeles Fire and Police Plan (LAFPP) was established by the City of Los Angeles in 1899. LAFPP is a single employer public employee retirement system whose main function is to provide retirement benefits to the safety members employed by the City of Los Angeles. It should be noted that there are two member categories in LAFPP: (1) the Harbor Port Police (an enterprise fund) and (2) the other members associated with the City’s Fire and Police Departments. The Fire and Police Pension Plan is administered by a Board of Commissioners composed of five commissioners who are appointed by the Mayor, two commissioners elected by Police Members of the Plan and two commissioners elected by Fire Members of the Plan. Under provisions of the City Charter, the City Administrative Code and the State Constitution, the Board has the responsibility to administer the Plan. Plan membership. At June 30, 2015, pension plan membership consisted of the following: Retired members or beneficiaries currently receiving benefits 12,593 Vested terminated members entitled to but not yet receiving benefits(1) 112 DROP members 1,359 Active members 11,709 Total 25,773 (1) Includes terminated members due only a refund of member contributions. Note: Data as of June 30, 2015 is not used in the measurement of the TPL as of June 30, 2015.

Benefits provided. LAFPP provides service retirement, disability, death and survivor benefits to eligible sworn members of the Los Angeles Fire, Police and Harbor Departments. Sworn employees become members upon graduation from the Police Academy or Fire Drill Tower. There are currently six tiers applicable to members of the LAFPP. Tier 1 includes members hired on or before January 28, 1967. Tier 2 includes members hired from January 29, 1967 through December 7, 1980, and those Tier 1 members who transferred to Tier 2 during the enrollment period of January 29, 1967 to January 29, 1968. Tier 3 includes members hired from December 8, 1980 through June 30, 1997 and those Tier 4 members hired during the period of July 1, 1997 through December 31, 1997 who elected to transfer to Tier 3 by the enrollment deadline of June 30, 1998. Tier 4 includes members hired from 1 SECTION 2: GAS 68 Information for the City of Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan

July 1, 1997 through December 31, 2001 and those Tier 3 members who elected to transfer to Tier 4 by the enrollment deadline of June 30, 1998. Tier 5 includes members hired from January 1, 2002 through June 30, 2011 and those active members of Tiers 2, 3, or 4 who elected to transfer to Tier 5 during the enrollment period of January 2, 2002 through December 31, 2002. Tier 6 was established for all firefighters and police officers hired on or after July 1, 2011. Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 4 members are eligible to retire once they attain 20 years of service. Tier 3 members are eligible to retire once they reach age 50 and have attained 10 or more years of service. Tier 5 and Tier 6 members are eligible to retire once they reach age 50 and have attained 20 or more years of service. The Service Retirement benefit the member will receive is based upon age at retirement, final average compensation, years of retirement service credit and tier. The Tier 1 Service Retirement benefit is calculated pursuant to the provisions of Section 1304 of the Los Angeles Charter. The monthly allowance for a member with between 20 to 25 years of service who retires from active status is equal to 40% of the average monthly rate of salary assigned to the ranks or positions held by the member during the three years immediately preceding the date of his/her retirement plus 2% of the average rate of salary for each year of service in excess of 20 years. The monthly allowance for a member with between 25 to 34 years of service who retires from active status is equal to 50% of the average monthly rate of salary assigned to the ranks or positions held by the member during the three years immediately preceding the date of his/her retirement plus 1 2/3% of the average rate of salary for each year of service in excess of 25 years. The monthly allowance for a member with 35 or more years of service who retires from active status is equal to 66 2/3% of the average monthly rate of salary assigned to the ranks or positions held by the member during the three years immediately preceding the date of his/her retirement. The Tier 2 Service Retirement benefit is calculated pursuant to the provisions of Section 1408 of the Los Angeles Charter. The monthly allowance for a member with less than 25 years of service who retires from active status is equal to 2% of Normal Pension Base per year of service. The monthly allowance for a member with 25 or more years of service who retires from active status is equal to 55% of Normal Pension Base plus 3% of Normal Pension Base for each year of service in excess of 25 years, with a maximum of 70% of Normal Pension Base. The Tier 3 Service Retirement benefit is calculated pursuant to the provisions of Section 1504 of the Los Angeles Charter. The monthly allowance for a member with less than 20 years of service who retires from active status is equal to 2% of Final Average Salary per year of service. The monthly allowance for a member with 20 or more years of service who retires from active status is equal to 40% of Final Average Salary plus 3% of Final Average Salary for each year of service in excess of 20 years, with a maximum of 70% of Final Average Salary. The Tier 4 Service Retirement benefit is calculated pursuant to the provisions of Section 1604 of the Los Angeles Charter. The monthly allowance for a member who retires from active status is equal to 40% of Final Average Salary plus 3% per year of service over 20 years, with a maximum of 70% of Final Average Salary.

2 SECTION 2: GAS 68 Information for the City of Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan

The Tier 5 Service Retirement benefit is calculated pursuant to the provisions of Section 4.2004 of the Los Angeles Administrative Code. The monthly allowance for a member who retires from active status is equal to 50% of Final Average Salary plus 3% per year of service over 20, except for the 30th year, where 4% is provided, with a maximum of 90% of Final Average Salary. The Tier 6 Service Retirement benefit is calculated pursuant to the provisions of Section 1704 of the Los Angeles Charter. The monthly allowance for a member who retires from active status is equal to 40% of Final Average Salary, plus 3% of Final Average Salary per year of service from 21 through 25 years, 4% of Final Average Salary per year of service from 26 through 30 years, and 5% of Final Average Salary per year of service over 30 years, with a maximum of 90% of Final Average Salary. Under Tier 1, pension benefits are calculated based on the average monthly rate of salary assigned to the ranks or positions held by the member during the three years immediately preceding the date of his/her retirement. Under Tier 2, pension benefits are calculated based on the Normal Pension Base, the final monthly salary rate. Under Tiers 3 – 6, pension benefits are calculated based on the Final Average Salary. Under Tiers 3 – 5, the Final Average Salary is the highest monthly average salary actually received during any 12 consecutive months of service. Under Tier 6 the Final Average Salary is the highest monthly average salary actually received during any 24 consecutive months of service. LAFPP provides annual cost-of-living adjustments (COLAs) to retirees. The cost-of-living adjustments are made each July 1 and vary by Tier. Under Tier 1 and Tier 2, the COLA is based on the percentage change in the average of the Consumer Price Index for the Los Angeles-Riverside-Orange County Area--All Items For All Urban Consumers. Under Tier 3 and Tier 4, the COLA is the same as under Tier 1 and Tier 2 but is capped at 3%, with a prorated COLA in the first year of retirement. Under Tier 5 and Tier 6, the COLA is the same as under Tier 3 and Tier 4, with the excess of the COLA over 3% banked for future use when the COLA is under 3%. The City of Los Angeles contributes to the retirement plan based upon actuarially determined contribution rates adopted by the Board of Commissioners based upon recommendations received from LAFPP’s actuary after the completion of the annual actuarial valuation. The average employer contribution rate for fiscal year 2014 – 2015 (based on the June 30, 2013 valuation) was 36.47% of compensation if paid on July 15, 2014. All members are required to make contributions to LAFPP regardless of tier in which they are included. However, members are exempt from making contributions when their continuous service exceeds 30 years for Tiers 1 through 4, and 33 years for Tier 5 and Tier 6. The average member contribution rate for fiscal year 2014 – 2015 (based on the June 30, 2013 valuation) was 9.63% of compensation paid biweekly.

The Plan’s Fiduciary Net Position (plan assets) was valued as of the measurement date while the Total Pension Liability (TPL) was determined based upon rolling forward the TPL from actuarial valuations as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Plan provisions. The plan provisions used in the measurement of the NPL as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 are the same as those used in the LAFPP actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Actuarial assumptions and methods. The TPL’s as of June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014 were determined by actuarial valuations as of June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively. The actuarial assumptions used were based on the results of an experience study for the period from July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2013. They are the same as the assumptions used in the June 30, 2015 funding actuarial valuation for LAFPP. The assumptions are outlined in Section 3 of this report. In particular, the following actuarial assumptions were applied to all periods included in the measurement: Inflation 3.25% Salary increases Ranges from 4.75% to 11.50% based on years of service, including inflation Investment rate of return 7.50%, including inflation but net of Pension Plan investment expense Other assumptions See analysis of actuarial experience during the period July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2013 and Section 3 for the service retirement rates after they have been adjusted to be based on the assumed date of first participation in the DROP.

EXHIBIT 3 Target Asset Allocation

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These returns are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation and deducting expected investment expenses and a risk margin. The target allocation and projected arithmetic real rates of return for each measurement class, after deducting inflation but before reduction for investment expenses, used in the derivation of the long-term expected investment rate of return assumption are summarized in the following table:

Long-Term Target Expected Real Asset Class Allocation Rate of Return Large Cap U.S. Equity 23.00% 6.03% Small Cap U.S. Equity 6.00% 6.71% Developed International Equity 16.00% 6.71% Emerging Markets Equity 5.00% 8.02% U.S. Core Fixed Income 14.00% 0.52% High Yield Bonds 3.00% 2.81% Real Estate 10.00% 4.73% TIPS 5.00% 0.43% Commodities 5.00% 4.67% Cash 1.00% -0.19% Unconstrained Fixed Income 2.00% 2.50% Private Equity 10.00% 9.25% Total Portfolio 100.00% 5.12% Discount rate: The discount rate used to measure the Total Pension Liability (TPL) was 7.50% as of June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed plan member contributions will be made at the current contribution rates for each tier and that employer contributions will be made at rates equal to the actuarially determined contribution rates for each tier. For this purpose, only employer contributions that are intended to fund benefits for current plan members and their beneficiaries are included. Projected employer contributions that are intended to fund the service costs for future plan members and their beneficiaries, as well as projected contributions from future plan members, are

5 SECTION 2: GAS 68 Information for the City of Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan

not included. Based on those assumptions, the Pension Plan's Fiduciary Net Position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments for current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on Pension Plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the TPL as of both June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014.

Notes to Exhibit 6 Methods and assumptions used to establish “actuarially determined contribution” (ADC) rates: The methods and assumptions used in the most recent funding valuation as of June 30, 2015 which established the ADC for the year ending June 30, 2017 are shown below. (The assumptions used in establishing the ADC for the year ended June 30, 2015 were based on the June 30, 2013 funding valuation(1)). Valuation date Actuarially determined contribution rates are calculated as of June 30, two years prior to the end of the fiscal year in which contributions are reported Actuarial cost method Entry Age Actuarial Cost Method Amortization method For Tier 1, level dollar amortization is used with last period ending on June 30, 2037. For Tiers 2, 3 and 4, level percent of payroll amortization with multiple layers is used as a percent of total valuation payroll from the respective employer (i.e., City or Harbor Port Police). For Tiers 5 and 6, level percent of payroll with multiple layers is used as a percent of combined payroll for these tiers from the respective employer (i.e., City or Harbor Port Police). Remaining amortization period Actuarial gains/losses are amortized over 20 years. Assumption changes are amortized over 25 years. Plan changes are amortized over 15 years. Asset valuation method The market value of assets less unrecognized returns. Unrecognized return is equal to the difference between the actual and the expected return on a market value basis, and is recognized over a seven-year period. Deferred gains and losses as of June 30, 2013 have been combined and will be recognized over a period of six years from July 1, 2013. The actuarial value of assets is further adjusted, if necessary, to be within 40% of the market value of assets. Actuarial assumptions: Investment rate of return 7.50%, net of investment expenses Inflation rate 3.25% Administrative expenses Out of the total 1.00% of payroll in administrative expense, 0.94% of payroll payable biweekly is allocated to the Retirement Plan. This is equal to 0.91% of payroll payable at beginning of the year. Real across-the-board salary increase 0.75% Projected salary increases(2) Ranges from 4.75% to 11.55% based on years of service Cost of living adjustments 3.25% of Tiers 1 and 2 retirement income and 3.00% of Tiers 3, 4, 5, and 6 retirement income.

Notes: The Net Pension Liability (NPL) for each member category is the Total Pension Liability (TPL) minus the Plan Fiduciary Net Position (plan assets). The TPL for each member category is obtained from internal valuation results and is calculated separately for each of the members associated with the Fire and Police Departments and the Harbor Port Police. The Plan Fiduciary Net Position for each membership category was estimated by adjusting the valuation value of assets for each membership category by the ratio of the total LAFPP Plan’s Fiduciary Net Position to total LAFPP valuation value of assets.

EXHIBIT 9 (continued) Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of Resources

Notes: Amounts shown in this exhibit were allocated by Fire and Police and Harbor Port Police member categories based on the internal calculations as described in Exhibit 7. In determining the pension expense: - Any differences between projected and actual investment earnings on pension plan investments are recognized over a period of five years beginning with the year in which they occur. - Current period (i.e., 2014/2015) differences between expected and actual experience and changes of assumptions are recognized over the average of the expected remaining service lives of all employees that are provided with pensions through LAFPP determined as of June 30, 2014 (the beginning of the measurement period ending June 30, 2015) and is 5.83 years. - Prior period differences between expected and actual experience and changes of assumptions are continued to be recognized based on the expected remaining service lives of all employees calculated as of those prior measurement dates.

The average of the expected remaining service lives of all employees was determined by: - Calculating each active employee’s expected remaining service life as the present value of $1 per year of future service at zero percent interest. - Setting the remaining service life to zero for each nonactive or retired members. - Dividing the sum of the above amounts by the total number of active employee, nonactive and retired members.

There is no change in the pension expense brought about by “Changes in Proportion and Differences Between Employer Contributions and Proportionate Share of Contributions”. This is because calculations are done separately to track TPL and Plan Fiduciary Net Position for each of the Fire and Police Departments and Harbor Port Police.

28 SECTION 3: Actuarial Assumptions and Methods and Appendices for the City of Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan

Actuarial Assumptions and Methods

Rationale for The information and analysis used in selecting each assumption that has a significant effect on this Assumptions: actuarial valuation is shown in the July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2013 Actuarial Experience Study dated July 3, 2014 and the Economic Actuarial Assumption Study for June 30, 2014 Actuarial Valuation dated July 3, 2014. Unless otherwise noted, all actuarial assumptions and methods shown below apply to all members. These assumptions have been adopted by the Board.

Mortality Rates

Healthy: RP-2000 Combined Healthy Mortality Table (separate for males and females), projected to 2022 with scale BB set back one year for members.

RP-2000 Combined Healthy Mortality Table (separate for males and females), projected to 2022 with scale BB set forward one year for beneficiaries.

Disabled: RP-2000 Combined Healthy Mortality Table (separate for males and females), projected to 2022 with scale BB set forward one year.

The above mortality tables contain about a 10% margin, based on actual to expected deaths, as a provision appropriate to reasonably anticipate future mortality improvement, based on a review of mortality experience as of the measurement date.

Members are assumed to remain in the DROP for 5 years. Of all members expected to retire with a service retirement benefit, we project a 95% probability that members have elected the DROP before retirement if they will have also satisfied the requirements for participating in the DROP for 5 years

33 SECTION 3: Actuarial Assumptions and Methods and Appendices for the City of Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan

Retirement Rates After Adjustment for DROP Participation: As the service retirement rates we use in the funding valuation have been developed based on the later date of exit from the DROP, we have adjusted those rates in this GASB valuation so that they are based on the earlier date of first participation in the DROP. Retirement rates used in our June 30, 2015 funding valuation are shown again on the next page. Please note that those rates are applicable in the GASB valuation for actives not eligible to enter the DROP. A sample of those rates used in the GASB valuation for an active eligible to enter the DROP at age 55 are as follows:

35 SECTION 3: Actuarial Assumptions and Methods and Appendices for the City of Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan

Retirement Age and Benefit for Inactive Vested Participants: For deferred vested members, retirement assumption is age 50. Unknown Data for Members: Same as those exhibited by members with similar known characteristics. If not specified, members are assumed to be male. Exclusion of Inactive Vesteds: All inactive participants are included in the valuation. Definition of Active Members: First day of biweekly payroll following employment for new department employees or immediately following transfer from other city department. Percent Married/Domestic Partner: 80% of male members, 60% of female members Age of Spouse: Wives are 3 years younger than their husbands. Future Benefit Accruals: 1.0 year of service per year.

Consumer Price Index: Increase of 3.25% per year; benefit increases due to CPI subject to a 3.0% maximum for Tiers 3 through 6. Member Contribution and Matching Account Crediting Rate: 5.00% Net Investment Return: 7.50%, net of investment expenses

Administrative Expenses: Out of the total 1.00% of payroll in administrative expense, 0.94% of payroll payable biweekly is allocated to the Retirement Plan. This is equal to 0.91% of payroll payable at beginning of the year.

Nonservice Connected Disability Benefits: 40% of Final Average Salary

37 SECTION 3: Actuarial Assumptions and Methods and Appendices for the City of Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan

Actuarial Value of Assets: The market value of assets less unrecognized returns. Unrecognized return is equal to the difference between the actual and expected returns on a market value basis, and is recognized over a seven-year period. Deferred gains and losses as of June 30, 2013 have been combined and will be recognized in equal amounts over a period of six years from that date. The actuarial value of assets is further adjusted, if necessary, to be within 40% of the market value of assets.

Actuarial Cost Method: Entry Age Actuarial Cost Method. Entry Age is the current age minus Service Credit. Actuarial Accrued Liability is calculated on an individual basis and is based on costs allocated as a level percentage of compensation. Funding Policy: The City of Los Angeles Fire & Police Pension Plan makes contributions equal to the Normal Cost adjusted by amount to amortize any Surplus or Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability. Both the Normal Cost and the Actuarial Accrued Liability are determined under the Entry Age Cost Method. Any Surplus is amortized over an open (non-decreasing) thirty-year period. Any changes in Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability due to actuarial gains or losses are amortized over separate twenty-year periods as a level percentage of payroll. Any changes in Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability from plan amendments are amortized over separate fifteen-year periods as a level percentage of payroll. Any changes in Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability from plan assumption changes are amortized over separate twenty-five year periods as a level percentage of payroll. Normal Cost and Actuarial Accrued Liability are calculated on an individual basis and are allocated by service. For Tier 1, the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability is amortized using level dollar amortization ending on June 30, 2037. For Tiers 2, 3 and 4, the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability is amortized using level percent of payroll as a percent of total valuation payroll from the respective employer (i.e., the City or Harbor Port Police). For Tiers 5 and 6, the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability is amortized using level percent of payroll as a percent of combined payroll for these tiers from the respective employer (i.e., City or Harbor Port Police). Change in Actuarial Assumptions: There were no assumption changes since the last valuation.

39 SECTION 3: Actuarial Assumptions and Methods and Appendices for the City of Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan

APPENDIX A (continued) Calculation of Discount Rate as of June 30, 2015 Projection of Pension Plan’s Fiduciary Net Position ($ in millions)

Notes: (1) Amounts may not total exactly due to rounding. (2) Amounts shown in the year beginning July 1, 2014 row are actual amounts, based on the information provided by LAFPP. (3) Years 2024-2037, 2043-2081, 2087-2100, and 2104-2114 have been omitted from this table. (4) Column (a): Except for the "discounted value" shown for 2117, none of the projected beginning plan fiduciary net position amounts shown have been adjusted for the time value of money. (5) Column (b): Projected total contributions include employee and employer normal cost contributions based on closed group projections (based on covered active members as of June 30, 2014); plus employer contributions to the unfunded actuarial accrued liability; plus employer contributions to fund each year's annual administrative expenses. Contributions are assumed to occur beginning of the year. (6) Column (c): Projected benefit payments have been determined in accordance with paragraph 39 of GASB Statement No. 67, and are based on the closed group of active, inactive vested, retired members, and beneficiaries as of June 30, 2014. The projected benefit payments reflect the cost of living increase assumptions to be used in the June 30, 2015 valuation report. The projected benefit payments are assumed to occur beginning of the month, on average. (7) Column (d): Projected administrative expenses (payable at the beginning of the year) are calculated as 0.91% of projected payroll, based on the closed group of active members as of June 30, 2014. Projected administrative expenses are then adjusted to reflect the assumption that they occur halfway through the year, on average. (8) Column (e): Projected investment earnings are based on the assumed investment rate of return of 7.50% per annum except for 2014/2015. (9) As illustrated in this Exhibit, the Plan's fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments for current Plan members. In other words, there is no projected "cross-over date" when projected benefits are not covered by projected assets. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on Plan investments of 7.50% per annum was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability as of June 30, 2015 shown earlier in this report, pursuant to paragraph 44 of GASB Statement No. 67.

Deferred retirement option program (DROP) A program that permits an employee to elect a calculation of benefit payments based on service credits and salary, as applicable, as of the DROP entry date. The employee continues to provide service to the employer and is paid for that service by the employer after the DROP entry date; however, the pensions that would have been paid to the employee (if the employee had retired and not entered the DROP) are credited to an individual employee account within the defined benefit pension plan until the end of the DROP period.

Defined benefit pension plans Pension plans that are used to provide defined benefit pensions.

Defined benefit pensions Pensions for which the income or other benefits that the employee will receive at or after separation from employment are defined by the benefit terms. The pensions may be stated as a specified dollar amount or as an amount that is calculated based on one or more factors such as age, years of service, and compensation. (A pension that does not meet the criteria of a defined contribution pension is classified as a defined benefit pension for purposes of Statement 68.)

44 SECTION 3: Actuarial Assumptions and Methods and Appendices for the City of Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan

APPENDIX B (continued) Glossary of Terms

Discount rate The single rate of return that, when applied to all projected benefit payments, results in an actuarial present value of projected benefit payments equal to the total of the following:

1. The actuarial present value of benefit payments projected to be made in future periods in which (a) the amount of the pension Plan’s Fiduciary Net Position is projected (under the requirements of Statement 68) to be greater than the benefit payments that are projected to be made in that period and (b) pension plan assets up to that point are expected to be invested using a strategy to achieve the long-term expected rate of return, calculated using the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments.

2. The actuarial present value of projected benefit payments not included in (1), calculated using the municipal bond rate.

Entry age actuarial cost method A method under which the actuarial present value of the projected benefits of each individual included in an actuarial valuation is allocated on a level basis over the earnings or service of the individual between entry age and assumed exit age(s). The portion of this actuarial present value allocated to a valuation year is called the normal cost. The portion of this actuarial present value not provided for at a valuation date by the actuarial present value of future normal costs is called the actuarial accrued liability.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

Board of Fire and Police Pension Commissioners Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension System Los Angeles, California

Report on the Schedule of Pension Amounts by Entity

We have audited the entity allocations and the total for all entities of the columns titled net pension liability, total deferred outflows of resources, total deferred inflows of resources, and total pension expense (specified column totals) included in the accompanying schedule of pension amounts by entity (Schedule) of the Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan (Plan) administered by the Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension System (LAFPP) as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, and the related notes.

Management’s Responsibility for the Schedule of Pension Amounts by Entity

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the Schedule in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the Schedule that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor’s Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express opinions on the entity allocations and specified column totals included in the Schedule based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Schedule is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the Schedule. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Schedule, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the Schedule in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Schedule. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

NOTE 1 – PLAN DESCRIPTION

The Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension Plan (Plan) is administered by the Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension System (LAFPP). LAFPP is a single employer public employee retirement system whose main function is to provide retirement benefits to the safety members employed by the City of Los Angeles. There are two participating entities in LAFPP: (1) the Harbor Department (an enterprise fund of the City of Los Angeles) and (2) City of Los Angeles’ Fire and Police Departments.

LAFPP is administered by a Board of Commissioners composed of five commissioners who are appointed by the Mayor, two commissioners elected by Police members of the Plan and two commissioners elected by Fire members of the Plan. Under provisions of the City Charter, the City Administrative Code and the State Constitution, the Board has the responsibility to administer the Plan.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation and Basis of Accounting

Entities participating in the Plan are required to report pension information in their financial statements for fiscal periods beginning on or after June 15, 2014, in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions. The Schedule of Pension Amounts by Entity (Schedule) provide participating entities with the required information for financial reporting related to pensions provided through the Plan.

The accompanying Schedule was prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Use of Estimates in the Presentation of the Financial Schedule

The preparation of the Schedule in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 4 – ACTUARIAL METHODS AND ASSUMPTIONS

Key Methods and Assumptions Used in Valuation of Total Pension Liability

The total pension liability as of June 30, 2015 was determined based on the June 30, 2014 actuarial valuation rolled forward to June 30, 2015. The actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2014 valuation were based on the results of an experience study for the period from July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2013 and the economic assumptions as of June 30, 2014

Significant actuarial assumption and other key inputs used to measure the total pension liability:

Actuarial Cost Method Entry Age Actuarial Cost Method Actuarial Assumptions: Investment Rate of Return 7.50%, net of investment expenses Inflation Rate 3.25% Projected Salary Increases 4.75 % to 11.50 % based on years of service Cost-of-Living Adjustments 3.25 % of Tiers 1 and 2 retirement income and 3.00% of Tiers 3, 4, 5, and 6 retirement income

Mortality Assumption

Mortality rates used in the actuarial valuation dated June 30, 2014 are as follows:

Healthy: RP-2000 Combined Health Mortality Table (separate for males and females), projected to 2022 with Scale BB set back one year for members.

RP-2000 Combined Health Mortality Table (separate for males and females), projected to 2022 with Scale BB set forward one year for beneficiaries.

Disabled: RP-2000 Combined Health Mortality Table (separate for males and females), projected to 2022 with Scale BB set forward one year

LOS ANGELES FIRE AND POLICE PENSION SYSTEM NOTES TO THE SCHEDULE OF PENSION AMOUNTS BY ENTITY AS OF AND FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2015

NOTE 4 – ACTUARIAL METHODS AND ASSUMPTIONS (Continued)

Target Asset Allocation

The long-term expected rate of return on the Plan’s investments was determined using a building-block method in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of inflation) are developed for each major asset class. This information is combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage, and by adding expected inflation and subtracting expected investment expenses and a risk margin. The target allocation (approved by the Board) and projected arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class, after deducting inflation, but before deducting investment expenses, used in the derivation of the long-term expected investment rate of return assumption, are summarized in the following table:

Long-Term Target Expected Real Asset Class Allocation Rate of Return Large Cap U.S. Equity 23.00% 6.03% Small Cap U.S. Equity 6.00% 6.71% Developed International Equity 16.00% 6.71% Emerging Markets Equity 5.00% 8.02% U.S. Core Fixed Income 14.00% 0.52% High Yield Bonds 3.00% 2.81% Real Estate 10.00% 4.73% TIPS 5.00% 0.43% Commodities 5.00% 4.67% Cash 1.00% -0.19% Unconstrained Fixed Income 2.00% 2.50% Private Equity 10.00% 9.25% Total Portfolio 100.00% 5.12%

Discount Rate

The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.50% as of June 30, 2015. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed plan member contributions will be made at the current contribution rates for each tier and that employer contributions will be made at rates equal to the actuarially determined contribution rates for each tier. For this purpose, only employer contributions that are intended to fund benefits for current plan members and their beneficiaries are included. Projected employer contributions that are intended to fund the service costs for future plan members and their beneficiaries, as well as projected contributions from future plan members, are not included. Based on those assumptions, the Plan's Fiduciary Net Position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments for current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on the Plan’s investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability as of June 30, 2015.

NOTE 5 – AMORTIZATION OF DEFERRED OUTFLOWS OF RESOURCES AND DEFERRED INFLOWS OF RESOURCES

Any differences between projected and actual investment earnings on pension plan investments are amortized over a period of five years beginning with the year in which they occur.

Current period differences between expected and actual experience and changes of assumptions are amortized over the average of the expected remaining service lives of all employees that are provided with pensions through LAFPP determined as of June 30, 2014 (the beginning of the measurement period ending June 30, 2015) and is 5.83 years. Prior period differences between expected and actual experience and changes of assumptions are continued to be amortized based on the expected remaining service lives of all employees calculated as of those prior measurement dates.

The average of the expected remaining service lives of all employees was determined by:

. Calculating each active employee’s expected remaining service life as the present value of $1 per year of future service at zero percent interest. . Setting the remaining service life to zero for each nonactive or retired members. . Dividing the sum of the above amounts by the total number of active employee, nonactive and retired members.

NOTE 6 – ALLOCATION OF PENSION AMOUNTS TO INDIVIDUAL ENTITY

The total pension liability for each individual entity is obtained from internal valuation results and is calculated separately for each of the members associated with the Fire and Police Departments and the Harbor Department. The Plan’s Fiduciary Net Position for each entity was estimated by adjusting the valuation value of assets for each entity by the ratio of the total Plan’s Fiduciary Net Position to total Plan’s valuation value of assets.

The following items are allocated based on the internal valuation results maintained and calculated separately for each of the members associated with the Fire and Police Departments and the Harbor Department.

1) Net pension liability 2) Service cost 3) Interest on the total pension liability 4) Expensed portion of current-period benefit changes 5) Expensed portion of current-period difference between expected and actual experience in the total pension liability 6) Member contributions 7) Projected earnings on plan investments 8) Expensed portion of current-period differences between actual and projected earnings on plan investments 9) Administrative expense 10) Recognition of beginning of year deferred outflows of resources as pension expense 11) Recognition of beginning of year deferred inflows of resources as pension expense

DEPARTMENT OF FIRE AND POLICE PENSIONS 701 E. 3rd Street, Suite 200 Los Angeles, CA 90013 (213) 279-3000

REPORT TO THE BOARD OF FIRE AND POLICE PENSION COMMISSIONERS

DATE: SEPTEMBER 15, 2016 ITEM: A.4

FROM: RAYMOND P. CIRANNA, GENERAL MANAGER

SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF ANNUAL CONTRACT AMOUNT FOR OUTSIDE REAL ESTATE AND INVESTMENT COUNSEL FIRMS JACKSON WALKER LLP, KUTAK ROCK LLP, AND NOSSAMAN LLP AND POSSIBLE BOARD ACTION

RECOMMENDATION

That the Board approve an annual contract amount of $100,000 for each of the three outside real estate and investment counsel firms (Jackson Walker LLP, Kutak Rock LLP, and Nossaman LLP).

DISCUSSION

During the July 7, 2016 Board meeting, the Board interviewed five outside counsel firms and selected three firms to assist the Board and the City Attorney’s Office in reviewing investment transactions. The three firms that were selected by the Board were Jackson Walker LLP, Kutak Rock LLP, and Nossaman LLP. The Board also authorized the City Attorney to negotiate the terms and conditions with each firm. However, the Board did not adopt an annual contract ceiling for each firm in its resolution. This contract amount must be established based on the City’s contracting requirements.

On July 21, 2016, Staff recommended that each outside counsel firm contract be limited to $125,000 per year. However, the Board continued the item until additional cost information could be submitted to the Board. Specifically, the Board requested the City Attorney to negotiate the hourly rates with all three firms to determine whether the rates could be reduced for each firm. The City Attorney has reported that Nossaman has agreed to reduce the hourly rates of some of their partners. The hourly rates for Kutak Rock were already the lowest rates so no further negotiation was necessary. However, the hourly rates for Jackson Walker were the highest rates submitted and unfortunately the firm declined to lower their rates.

The Board also requested the City Attorney and staff to report on the value of requesting outside investment counsel to review private equity subscription documents and side letters. Currently, as part of Portfolio Advisors’ services in the core private equity program, legal counsel is provided to assist in the review of fund subscription documents and side letters. However, the use of outside counsel directed by the City Attorney and staff has resulted in additional protections of LAFPP’s interests and compliance of policies. While it is difficult to quantify the value of this additional legal review, Staff strongly believe it is prudent to continue to use outside counsel for this purpose to insure additional protections for LAFPP given the System’s multi-million dollar investments in private equity.

Staff recognizes that over the last two years, expenditures for the current real estate and investment outside counsel contract with Nossaman have exceeded budget and the original contract limits. Going forward, staff anticipates better utilization of Nossaman as work will be more equally distributed between the outside counsel firms.

After discussions with the City Attorney, Staff is recommending that each investment outside counsel firm contract be limited to $100,000 per year for a total of $300,000 over the life of each contract. However, the Board may want to reconsider contracting with Jackson Walker as their rates were substantially higher than the other two firms. If the Board decides to select only two firms, then the contract annual expenditure limits can be increased slightly up to the $235,000 total budget limit ($117,500 annually for each of the two remaining firms).

Staff and the City Attorney do not expect to expend $100,000 per year for each firm, but request flexibility in assigning work to each firm over the three-year term of the contracts. As a reminder, work is assigned to an outside counsel firm on a project basis and not-to-exceed estimates are requested before work is authorized to be completed.

BUDGET

The 2016-17 Adopted Budget includes a total of $635,000 for all outside counsel contracts. Specifically, $235,000 out of the $635,000 has been allocated for real estate and investment outside counsel services. If additional funds are required specifically for outside real estate and investment counsel services, staff will reallocate funds within the overall outside counsel contract allocation in order to stay within budget.

POLICY

As recommended, there are no policy changes.

Data shown is as of March 31, 2016. 12 US Equity Mean Benchmark Optimization (MBO) What is MBO? • This process assists with structuring the “sub-asset classes” within the broader asset classes of the target asset allocation.

• The modeling is similar to the mean variance optimization (MVO) process used in “traditional” asset allocation models. – Inputs are return, risk, and correlation – Outputs are efficient frontier, portfolios, and their (excess) returns and risks

• The difference relative to MVO is that the inputs, process, and outputs are relative to a benchmark (called mean benchmark optimization (MBO)). – MBO inputs are relative to a benchmark (i.e. – excess return, tracking error) • Domestic equity asset structure MBOs typically uses the Russell 3000 Index as the benchmark.

DATE: SEPTEMBER 15, 2016 ITEM: B.3.a

FROM: RAYMOND P. CIRANNA, GENERAL MANAGER

SUBJECT: AUGUST 2016 MONTHLY REPORT AND UPDATE

THIS REPORT IS PROVIDED FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES

(Please note, on August 18, 2016 the July 2016 Monthly Report and Update provided to the Board was mislabeled as the August 2016 Monthly Report and Update.)

DISCUSSION

The August 2016 Monthly Report includes the following notable items:

1) 2016 Annual Report – Staff will design and finalize the entire Annual Report in-house without the assistance of a graphic designer including the layout and preparation of the final digital copy. The target deadline is December 31, 2016, which is one month earlier than last year.

2) Pension Perspectives – Active Members – Staff is expected to have the next Active Members newsletter completed in November. The newsletter will be emailed to members and posted on the website.

3) Financial Counseling Program – Focus group invitations were emailed in August to members who attended a DROP Exit seminar from January 2015 to the present. A focus group session was conducted on September 6, 2016 to gain feedback from members for the proposed financial counseling program. The feedback from the focus group session will assist staff and the contractor in the development of the program.

4) Pension Administration System Replacement – The CPAS team will be onsite in September to provide a walkthrough and training for LAFPP staff to assess and test the new features that will be included in Build No. 2.

5) Electronic Documents Management (Documentum & DocuShare) – LAFFP has hired three part- time Relief Retirement Workers to focus on the Quality Assurance of the scanned documents. This will enable staff to focus on the day-forward scanning request backlog. As of August, the day-forward backlog has been reduced to three weeks.

NEW PROJECTS

2016 ANNUAL REPORT Staff prepared a project timeline for creating the 2016 Annual Report and the review of several report sections has already begun. This year staff will finalize the entire report in-house which includes layout and preparation of the final digital copy, without the assistance of a graphic designer.

The target deadline has moved up to December 31, 2016, one month prior to last year’s deadline. Electronic distribution is scheduled for early January 2017, and a limited number of print copies will be available in late January. Management will begin their review of the Annual Report in late September.

PENSIONS DIVISION

PENSION PERSPECTIVES – ACTIVE MEMBERS Staff is drafting the next newsletter for Active Members. Some of the proposed topics include:  Purchasing Recruit Training Time  Validated Parking for Members Visiting LAFPP offices  Relief Associations – Health Plan Enrollment Requirements  Financial Planning Education Seminars  Rich Chicotel Award for LAFPP

The newsletter is expected to be emailed to members and posted on the website in November.

UPDATED PROJECTS

PROPOSED FINANCIAL COUNSELING PROGRAM Staff is conducting research to determine the scope and feasibility of offering individual financial counseling sessions to members. Members who attend one of the Financial Planning Education (FPE) seminars (for education only) would be given the opportunity to schedule a follow-up session with a financial planner for a personalized review of their financial situation. This would allow members to apply the education provided in the FPE seminar to take the next step and develop a comprehensive financial plan.

Staff previously met with representatives of United Firefighters of Los Angeles City, Los Angeles Police Protective League, Los Angeles Firemen’s Relief Association, Los Angeles Police Relief Association, and Los Angeles Retired Fire and Police Association, to request their input on the individual financial counseling services. The representatives were supportive of the proposed services.

The individual counseling sessions would be conducted through our current financial education consultant. The FPE seminar contract was awarded as a result of an RFP released in July 2015. At that time, staff requested to make a recommendation to award a financial counseling contract at a later date. The financial education and planning consultants would not be allowed to provide, sell or derive any income from the sale of any investment products to members. In addition, any advice to the member for certain investment choices should not affect or provide compensation to the advisor.

Staff met with the City Attorney on May 27, 2016, to discuss the parameters of the proposed financial counseling program. Staff proceeded with the plan for a pilot study of the financial counseling program and to conduct focus group sessions with members to gather feedback that will assist staff and the contractor in the development of the program.

[UPDATE: In August, invitations were sent for two separate focus group sessions scheduled for September 6, 2016. These invitations were emailed to approximately 360 members who had attended a DROP Exit seminar from January 2015 to the present. Sixteen members responded affirmatively which was enough for one full session, instead of two. These members were asked to complete a questionnaire to generate personalized reports. Eleven of the 16 members submitted their responses to the questionnaire.

The session was facilitated by a representative from Cambridge Financial (the current financial education consultant) and the Communications & Education staff. The 11 PENSIONS DIVISION participants were also offered a brief private session with the Cambridge representative to review their personalized reports, immediately following the session.

Staff received substantial feedback on the issues the participants faced as they transitioned into retirement. After reviewing their personal reports and providing suggestions to customize the report, the participants agreed that the proposed program with the financial counselor would be of great value to LAFPP members. Staff plans to consult with the City Attorney for the proposed contract and to request authority from the Board to award a contract.]

AIRPORT POLICE TRANSFER TO TIER 6 Currently, sworn personnel of the Airport Department (“Airport Police”) are members of the Los Angeles City Employees’ Retirement System (LACERS). During labor negotiations with the Airport Police bargaining units, the City agreed to place on the November 8, 2016 State General Election ballot a Charter amendment that proposes certain retirement benefit enhancements for this group.

Staff has worked with the City Attorney’s Office, outside tax counsel, CAO, and LACERS in reviewing the draft Charter amendment which would: 1) Enroll new Airport Police into Tier 6; 2) Allow current Airport Police to transfer into Tier 6 from LACERS at their own expense; and 3) Permit new Airport Police Chiefs to transfer into LACERS rather than participate in Tier 6. Additionally, staff worked with the Plan actuary to commission a study demonstrating the impact of allowing Airport Police to participate in Tier 6.

On June 16, the Plan actuary completed the cost study showing the increases in normal cost rates for Airport Police Officers to enter Tier 6, utilizing a simplified method to estimate the cost differences. A follow-up study using a detailed methodology was completed on July 7. The proposed ballot measure was approved by City Council on July 1.

2016 ANNUAL MEMBER SURVEY One of the milestones of the 2015-16 Business Plan project to enhance member and stakeholder education (Project #7), was to develop an online annual member survey to evaluate LAFPP services. The 2016 Annual Member Survey was conducted in April to request feedback on our various services, including newsletters, website, MyLAFPP (member self-service portal), social media, customer service and overall satisfaction. Emails and postcards were sent to approximately 23,000 active and retired members, including DROP members, to invite their participation. Members were encouraged to complete the survey online but hard copies were also mailed upon request. Responses were received from approximately 1,362 members. This was a 6% sample size, which exceeded our target of 3%. A summary of survey results will be compiled, emailed to respondents as requested and posted on the website. Staff has also identified key action items to implement, which will further enhance LAFPP services. Staff is creating an infographics brochure to highlight the survey results. In September 2016, this brochure will be emailed to respondents as requested and posted on the website. ADMINISTRATIVE OPERATIONS DIVISION

UPDATED PROJECTS

PENSION ADMINISTRATION SYSTEM REPLACEMENT The monthly requirements gathering sessions with Xerox and staff Subject Matter Experts from impacted business units continue in order to develop the specifications for the configuration and customization of the CPAS system.

Weekly meetings with the project management team (LAFPP, Xerox, and LRWL consultant) are also being conducted to review and check on the progress of various deliverables, including planning documents, data mapping and conversion, hosting services, as well as the implementation of the new imaging solution to replace Documentum.

[UPDATE: The development of the functionalities for the Secondary Calculation is going well. The CPAS Team will be onsite the week of September 19th to provide a general Walkthrough of the new features being released and a Hands-on training for LAFPP staff to perform the calculations.]

ELECTRONIC DOCUMENTS MANAGEMENT (DOCUMENTUM & DOCUSHARE) LAFPP still warehouses more than 2000 boxes of historical documents at off-site facilities. Many of these boxes require an assessment of whether or not they can be destroyed per the Department’s Record Retention Schedule or scanned into the Department’s repository system (DocuShare). Scanning of these historical documents at off-site facilities is not a priority for the Department at this time until other major projects are completed.

The LAFPP file repository conversion of Documentum to DocuShare was completed on June 30, 2016. Approximately 237,000 documents were reclassified and migrated from Documentum to DocuShare. Staff anticipates providing refresher end-user training on how to further navigate DocuShare prior to the retirement of Documentum. A date to retire the Documentum repository will be set after the completion of end user training.

Staff continues to expedite the scanning of day-forward documents to minimize the amount of hardcopy files stored at the new Headquarters. After the hardcopy files are scanned, staff provides a Quality Assurance (QA) assessment to ensure that all documents are digitally captured and retained before destruction. The backfile repository conversion project and QA functionality has created a backlog of day-forward scanning. Concurrently, staff continues to refine policies and procedures associated with the implementation of DocuShare.

[UPDATE: To mitigate the day-forward scanning request backlog, LAFPP hired three part-time Retirement Relief Workers to focus on the QA functionality, while staff completes the scanning requests. Through August, the day-forward scanning request backlog has been reduced to three weeks.]

PERFORMANCE METRICS As part of the Mayor’s “Back to Basics” philosophy, the Mayor has directed departments to submit performance metrics that will measure the effectiveness of the departments in key areas. Monthly, staff submits performance metrics and business plan project updates to Mayoral staff including data in following areas: payment of pension payments; disability applications; customer satisfaction; contractor disclosure; and investment benchmarks.

In addition, the General Manager has expanded the use of performance metrics to better measure and track performance and assist management decision making, taking into consideration resource requirements needed to compile and analyze the data

Ms. Erin Kenney, Departmental Audit Manager, and Mr. James Yeung, Internal Auditor IV, were before the Board.

If the legal basis does require factual finding(s), or if both staff and City Attorney cannot agree on whether a legal basis exists, the matter will be referred to the Board.

4. For all requests referred to the Board, staff will provide the Board with an analysis and the factual findings that must be made in order to approve the transfer request, which was seconded by Commissioner Aliano and approved by the following vote: ayes, Commissioners Aliano, Diannitto, Nathanson, Navarro, and President von Voigt – 5; nays, Commissioner Castro – 1.

A. ITEMS FOR BOARD ACTION

1. CONSIDERATION OF RICHARD D. EVANS’ APPEAL TO TRANSFER FROM TIER 3 TO TIER 4 AND POSSIBLE BOARD ACTION

Mr. Gregory Mack, Senior Management Analyst II, Active Member Services and Communications, presented the Department’s position on the request as untimely. Sgt. Richard Evans discussed his belief that there would be cost savings to the Fund if he were allowed to transfer. Ms. Corina Lee, Los Angeles Police Protective League, spoke to the Board on behalf of Sgt. Evans.

The Board discussed the possibility of setting precedent by granting this request with Mr. Josh Geller, Deputy City Attorney III.

RESOLUTION 16069

Commissioner Navarro moved that the Board deny the request of Sergeant II Richard D. Evans to transfer from Tier 3 to Tier 4 based on the following findings of fact:

1. The filing of a request to transfer to Tier 4 was not timely. Over 17 years have passed since the deadline to transfer to Tier 4.

2. Sergeant Evans’ decision to remain in Tier 3 was voluntary as he was aware of the Tier 4 transfer period and the enrollment deadline.

3. No legal basis has been provided with which the Board could allow Sergeant Evans to transfer from Tier 3 to Tier 4 outside of the election period specified in Los Angeles City Charter Section 1600 (b), which was from July 1, 1997 through June 30, 1998.

4.

Mr. Gregory Mack, Senior Management Analyst II, Active Member Services and Communications, presented the Department’s position on the request as untimely. Mr. Ian Eulian stated that he did not have the information necessary to make a timely decision due to an error in his address of record.

The Board questioned Mr. Mack concerning the various methods of distributing information regarding the Tier 5 transfer period. Mr. Mack discussed the various outreach and communications strategies employed by the department to notify members of the Tier 5 transfer period.

RESOLUTION 16070

Commissioner Navarro moved that the Board deny the request of former Fire Engineer Ian Eulian to transfer from Tier 4 to Tier 5 based on the following findings of fact:

1. The filing of a request to transfer to Tier 5 was not timely. Over 12 years have passed since the deadline to transfer to Tier 5.

2. Former Engineer Eulian did not inquire about transferring to Tier 5 until shortly before he resigned and Los Angeles Fire and Police Pensions (LAFPP) staff informed him that there is no refund of contributions upon termination or resignation under Tier 4.

3. No legal basis has been provided with which the Board could allow former Engineer Eulian to transfer from Tier 4 to Tier 5 outside of the election period specified in Los Angeles Administrative Code Section 4.2000(c)(1), which was from January 2, 2002 through December 31, 2002.

4. Staff is required to perform the ministerial duty of enforcing the statutory deadline and deny the late transfer request, which was seconded by Commissioner Pendleton and approved by the following vote: ayes, Commissioners Aliano, Diannitto, Navarro, Pendleton, Salimpour, Tapia, and President von Voigt – 7; nays, none.
