Transcript Partial transcript
Machine transcription of the meeting recording. The words are the recognizer's, except where a passage is marked as corrected or machine re-recognized; most have
not been checked against the audio, so words, numbers and names can be misheard.
It describes what was said. It cannot establish who voted how, an amount or an outcome — the City's
minutes do that (above).
A time links to its passage, and “Copy link” copies that link. No recording can be started from here.
346 suspect passage(s) marked in place; inspection incomplete: language review; 1 stretch(es) where a voice was detected and no words were recognized.
How this transcript was made. New machine transcription of the whole recording, with 7 voices separated from the audio.
20 short machine repair(s) (26 word(s)) are labelled in place, with the original words beside them: an ordinary word was replaced only where two further machine readings agreed on a different one.
Checks run on this transcript: the recognizer's own warning signs and whether a voice was detected where the words are. Not completed: language review.
A second, independent machine reading was compared with it word by word: the same words for 89.9% of 14,478 content words.
Dotted words (295 places) are ordinary wording differences: hover or tap to see the other reading.
346 passages (24% of the words) are marked suspect: their words are not shown ("unclear audio") and support no statement: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ; the language review questioned them; or no voice was detected there.
Agreement between two machine readings is not verification.
Inspection is incomplete: language review.
Voice detected, no words recognized (1 stretch). Something may have been said here that the transcript does not have:
00:59:25 (6 s) — neither reading has words
Speakers were separated by voice. A plain name rests on evidence tied to that voice; “provisional” is a name from an earlier text-only pass and is not verified; “Speaker N” is an unidentified voice.

think you probably know one, the investment return. ‸ Your plan, like every other plan really in the country in fiscal 22, you took a loss. Our measurement is around a minus 17 or so, but remember we smooth assets. We use a four year average. So that four year average wasn't horrible compared to. I just need to get closer. I think. Yeah. The four year average was a lot better because we factored in the prior three years, including fiscal 21, which was very good over 20%. But the four year smooth average came in at under four. And remember the assumption going into this was 7.15. And we all did a good job of lowering that when the markets were running up, when the funded status was ‸ improving. We said, look, we know this bad year is coming at some point. So measuring a loss against the 715 is much preferable to measuring it against an eight. And we also recognize something that was very common this last year. And that was a salary increase average above what's happened the last couple of years. I, I, we all know with the combination of inflation and minimum wage law phasing into $15 an hour, that's put upward pressure on salaries all around. And so we've seen negotiations the last couple of years, uh, with increases in salary. So the, the average salary increase that we calculated, we recognize with data from the city was close to 10%. The assumption was five.

but it's, it's not tremendous. So with, with all of that narrative in mind, looking at page six, the city's contribution requirement for the current year is 55.95%. And that's going up to 58.26. So the, the city for budgeting should just look at that estimate of 58.26.

Um, that's, uh, not an issue, uh, because the city, uh, has typically put in a few more dollars than necessary. Uh, in fact, there's $26,000 extra, um, in the trust fund that we'll use as a prepaid.
They know how to fund the plan. So, uh, I don't need to say any more on that. Uh, really the, the only, um, other update and then just a couple of advisements
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 00:06:33–00:06:34 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
I'll give you an update on the funded status. And if you would just swipe the report to page 19, you can see that even though there was a loss this last year, the plan has a, we have methods and assumptions in place that can allow for certain losses and still maintain a funded status from the prior year. So if you look at this graph, the funded status really didn't change from 21 to 22.
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:07:04–00:07:07 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
or the rest of your experience. Um, I, I think you will likely hear that performance since October 1st has probably been favorable. That's the news I've been hearing, um, the last couple of weeks. But I, I, you know, fiscal 21 was tremendously good. Fiscal 22 was bad. Um, they're both going to phase in over four years respectively. I, I do think the funded status

So you're, you're a little below average, but that's, that's not a concern. I mean, the funded status is, you can see this graph. It's been going up largely over the last decade. And that includes the periods when we were lowering the investment assumption, which normally would reduce the funded status. So you're, you're in a much better position than you were a decade ago, you know, from

to show you, you'll need to approve this part. If you just go, um, back two pages to the unfunded liability page, you see that, that big schedule, those columns of numbers there. That's a big portion of the payoff of your plan is for the, the unfunded liability. Um,
we're, we actually have gone into two pages here. So I'm recommending that we consolidate all of them into one payment next year. Um, and I, and I don't know what the payoff period will be. I'm going to guess it's maybe 15 years or so. Uh, but what I'm advising is not going to have any impact.
it's, it's analogous to, uh, you've seen these commercials on TV. If you, you know, people have a lot of loans, they, they have a lot of debt and they're making these individual payments every month. And some companies will come out and say, look, we'll just consolidate it. We'll pay them all off. And then you give us one payment. That's what we're doing here, except there's no profit involved. You know, the company

this point, um, there's two things, uh, after you, if you have any questions after that, you'll need to approve this report. And then I would ask for a separate approval on that unfunded liability consolidation for next year.

Yeah. Yes. Exactly. We'll do a dollar weighted average. Uh, if you look on the, the second page of that schedule, you see the, the total amount is that 6.4 million. Think of that as your,

it's to the, it's, it avoids volatility. It avoids the city's requirement going up in a year simply because a credit piece falls off. Right. That's not desirable. It's like, Hey, you, you know, the actuary

No. The magnitude of the change is not large. ‸ In absolute terms, you hear $70,000. Well, if the city's requirement last year was $10,000, that's a huge, it's like, whoa, it just multiplied by seven. Yeah. But the city's requirement last year was $1.5 million.

Yes, sir. All right. Wonderful. So I believe you all have the quarterly book in front of you. I'll go through that briefly. And as I do, I usually just talk about the markets slightly.
you flip to page four for me, upper left-hand corner of the page is a snapshot of what the markets looked like in the fourth quarter. Obviously captures October, November, December. Top row there shows GDP was positive. So continued modest growth in the U.S. economy, which is good.
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:23:00–00:23:04 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
The continuation of that at some point will increase unemployment. You'll see the next row there, CPI, is a measure of that inflation. The previous quarter was at 8.2%. As you all may remember, at the high,
So translation, although the Fed raised interest rates multiple times, even in the fourth quarter, and did it again in February, it looks like they're still going to raise rates at least two, potentially three more times this year. Remember, at the beginning of last year, we were at

system. As that percolates through, that means that the markets are going to still be somewhat tumultuous, and that unemployment still will probably rise. If you look at the upper right hand corner of the page, there was a little bit of solace for the fourth quarter though. But this is somewhat beguiling because the fourth quarter saw a lot of volatility. You have October and November rise pretty well. And in ‸ December, you actually had a decline.
So it's very choppy. Overall, though, the fourth quarter was positive. If you see the second row from the top on the right side, the S&P 500, as you remember, represents mostly large cap stocks.

The NICREF Odyssey is real estate, as you remember. That is a real asset, institutional quality real estate, for the most part invested in the basic four food groups of apartments, industrials, office and retail. That was down. We do expect that to still be down probably first quarter, and then to have tepid return for the remaining part of the year. Bonds were actually up. So that's good, finally. To remind us, though, it has been a tough 12 months. So everything that was liquid, whether it's stocks or bonds, were off double digits.
positive 7.5%, at least for the trading 12 months. And the only thing I'll mention in the bottom left-hand corner of the page, when you look at value, core, growth, large cap, mid cap, small cap, value actually outperformed core and growth, and large cap outperformed mid cap and small cap. At least for the quarter, value came back. If you could flip a couple of pages for me and go to page seven. And this is a snapshot of the portfolio over different trailing periods. So I'll go across that first row and then come down the first column. So for the first row, you'll see that most recent quarter, the fund gained 4.1% in the 92nd percentile. So that's not a good rank. Ideally, we want to be at least over 50%. And in fact, at least for the quarter, we did trail both the shadow index and the policy index. And that was because of allocation and selection effect, right? However, if you look over longer term numbers of three years, five years and 10 years, you'll see that the rank is in ‸ the top third or top decile. And for the most part, as you get later on, the returns are closer to the shadow index, move it slightly behind the policy index.

I think what's pretty dramatic is if you look at fixed income, fixed income was only up 2.2, and the benchmark was up 1.9. They beat it by 30 basis points, but that put them in the top quartile. So fixed income, all you're trying to do is win by 10 basis points, 20 basis points a quarter, and then you'll do quite well. God bless you. Asset allocation in the upper right hand corner of the page, when you add up all the numbers there, you're just shy of

that you're familiar with. So again, the dark line is our corpus, how it's appreciated over time. As I mentioned in the past, it's nice movement into the northeast ‸ quadrant. It's not smooth. There are some bumps. You have peaks and you have troughs. The most recent peak, of course, was what we had with COVID. And then you had that dramatic drop after that. One thing I will highlight is that the velocity or how quickly we went up and down with COVID is something that was unparalleled. Because if you look at 2008, which was the great financial crisis, you see that it ‸ took the course of approximately a little bit over a year. And then for us to rebound back out of that level, it took about five years. Yet with COVID, you see the first quarter of 2020, remember when we were living through that, it all seemed pretty dramatic. But then that bounce back up was also very dramatic, which is why we have a decline.

the past 20 years, the portfolio increased more than two and a half times the beginning value. So it's had a nice run considering the entire volatility that we've had, which is what we are looking for in a long duration portfolio. The place that we have taken risk is that we do have more equity exposure than a typical pension fund might have. But it is something that we are conscious about. And we did move around some of our monies ‸ into real assets. Real estate, which has helped over the longer term, but of course, over the shorter term, it is going to hinder us a little bit.
you'll see for real estate, we were at 10.7. The bogey was at 8.7. It's a proxy for bonds for us, which gained only 0.2, while bonds lost 0.2. So right there, at least that trade, we were up about 10% relative to the proxy. If I could ask you to flip to page nine for me. Here, the asset allocation does show us that we are a little bit over allocated to real estate and then a
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:31:55–00:31:59 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
of money back from real estate. That will take a little bit of time. And we are aware of it. But we are trying to bring our real estate allocation down a little bit. The overall market, by the way, was friendly, like I told you in January, did come down a little bit in February. So as of the end of the quarter, we're at $23.2 million, $23.3.
you so that it decreases the real asset component. The other piece I'll highlight is just the decomposition of the returns. As you recall, for large cap, we do have two bites of the apple there.
manager with Brandywine. For the quarter, Brandywine did nicely. Poland still underperformed over the longer term track record. We've been with Poland for quite a while. This past year has been a very challenging year, which kind of bleeds into those longer term numbers. The rank still is reasonable. They do underperform the benchmark a little bit. What I'll say is this, they have not changed their stripes at all. They are a concentrated manager that does buy stocks that we all are pretty familiar with in the top five names.

Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 00:34:06–00:34:07 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
We do expect that over the longer term, they'll do fine. Brandywine, historically, as you see here, since June of 2017, so roughly five years and change, they've outperformed the benchmark nicely. So they're doing their job. You may remember we did index our mid cap allocation. So that's pretty straightforward. And then Hardman Johnston was the international manager that we hired a couple of years ago. They had a nice bounce back over the past recent quarter. They do trail the benchmark a little bit since we've hired them. Again, they are a good manager over the long term. They'll do nicely. And then the other two are just names in continental enrichment that we saw the returns a moment ago. But let me just stop there and pause to see if there are any questions that I might be able to address.

Sure. I can mention it now actually. So, like many managers, Intercontinental has put a gate on their redemptions. What that means ‸ that relative to how much money is being requested to be taken out,

comes down to what they feel is reasonable in terms of financial ability for the fund to continue to do well. At the end of the day, what they've been hired to do is manage properties and use the capital that they have in their books to ensure that they're getting a good return. Frankly, also, they look at the competition and if the competition has a gate and they're doing the same thing, they're taking advantage of that as well. What I can highlight for ‸ you is the last time we faced this scenario in 2008, Intercontinental did not have a gate, but many other managers did have a gate. About two years afterwards, the gates were gone and I would say estimate anywhere from about a third to a half of the redemption requests were made and the others were rescinded. So the people asking for their money back said, we don't want the money back anymore.

So I suspect we probably will fall into that type of scenario again. I don't know the ‸ timing, but reasonably speaking, real estate, as we've talked about in the past,

You're going to get that money because of rents and because commercial real estate have escalator clauses where usually tied to CPI or some sort of number. So, you know, you're going to get cash flow in and over time after the markets kind of wash ‸ out any overvaluation, they start increasing again. So that's why over the long term real estate has hit kind of that mid to high single digit return. And once we get back into that scenario, there'll be restrictions. We will get the 10%. I suspect we'll probably get some more middle of the year.

wouldn't say it's just for show. I would say it's practically speaking, the amount of money that we get back will be somewhat limited. However, we are being prudent in trying to get back to target.

intercontinental, ‸ put it that way. And so they're dripping funds at a slower rate than even intercontinental. And to be clear, you're not getting 10% of your request. They they've allocated this, but they're going to, uh, apportion that these funds out to everybody who's in the queue, uh, pro rata. So, uh, you know, if your $500,000 request is, you know, whatever percentage, whatever percentage of the money in the queue that is, that's what percent of the money you're going to get.

up because it, you can get it back, but you, you have to get in line. I mean, and you have to understand the position that they're in. They can't just go, especially with interest rates rising, uh, real estate markets depressed. They can't just go sell an office building or sell an apartment complex, raise the funds to redeem the queue.

So the other piece is that right now, as you can see our international, we've deliberately kept ‸ a little bit under weight and we are a little bit underweight. What you'll notice is that our large cap piece shows up as 1.4% overweight as of the end of the quarter. As of this week though, we are actually a little bit more in large cap.

Sure. Actually, so. Don't forget. As you know, annually, we do have to declare what we expect the short term, midterm, long term returns of the plan would be.
typically, one would say that we're trying to hit the assumption rate of 7.15, which we feel comfortable saying that, you know, it makes sense. So for the record, you guys have that.

It's all perspective. It's all perspective. But it's funny, you know, we have health insurance funds. They operate different from the pension fund because they have to maintain liquidity, right? And so they ladder out CDs. That's what they do.
250 for the interest to make sure the whole thing's FDIC insured. And so when they're laddering them out, I was just at a meeting, they were laddering out, I don't know, like 43 CDs.
they were looking at the different interest rates. And it was interesting because the shorter terms, the one and two year CDs were paying more than the longer term CDs. So they backed everything down to one and two year CDs. Yeah, makes sense. It was, I mean, just sort of the opposite of what you would think.

Let me just take a couple of minutes about private equity. So page 19 is the title page. Page 20 starts off with some narrative of what private equity is.
So in a nutshell, private equity is when you have a money manager who has a pool of money and they will give money to a company that they're trying to grow or they will use that money to buy a company. Maybe take it from public to private. Uh,
or having that company merge into another company. That is what private equity does in a nutshell. Shark tank on steroids. Absolutely. So shark tank, when you think about it on CNBC is where you have individual entrepreneurs give money to other entrepreneurs. That is at that point though, seed capital, angel investing, venture capital, all the way on the risk spectrum. If you flip to, um, I, I will jump around a little bit. Page 24, because we talked about shark tank, the left side of the curve says seed stage. What this line shows is the life cycle of a company. Usually it starts off small and over time, it matures, gets bigger. And then over time, it becomes very mature. That darker blue falls under the category called venture capital. If you think about shark tank, you're really at seed stage or startup stage. And maybe some of it goes to an expense, expansion stage because
Flag: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ between the machine readings · 01:01:48–01:01:51 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
of the dark blue, but also all of this other stuff on the right hand side. The majority of private equity money is on the right hand side because you're dealing with companies that are trying to continue to grow. They do have revenues.
have the expertise to expand that business. What they need is outside assistance from people who have industry experience to be able to say, you know what, we can find the next great idea for you or find better customers for you to increase your revenues. So that's typically called growth equity though. A manager comes in, gives money to that company and says, all right, this is how we're going to build the company and get it stronger and bigger. On the right hand side, you have something called buyout where a company will, uh, an investor manager says, you know what? I can buy this company. For instance, Dunkin Donuts was bought in the past and they'll change up the structure and then resell it back into the marketplace. So there are different flavors of private equity.

out at cents on the dollar it's distressed and then I'll be able to flip it for multiples of what I bought it for but you hope for ‸ yes if you could flip back to page 21 for me this I think is pretty important similar to what we saw of other
products. This is the typical lifecycle of a private equity fund. So you have roughly a 12-year term. The first three years usually are an investment period. So let's say right now, if wewant to invest in private equity, you're looking at a 2023 vintage. That means people are raising money to invest that money starting ‸ 2023, going out typically to 2025. That's called
Flag: words were replaced by a machine repair · 01:04:17–01:04:17 · machine repair: words replaced where two further machine readings agreed (not checked by a person)
next, call it eight years or so, they're trying to make the company better so that they could either sell the company to a strategic partner, or if it was private,
maybe come out public. And then towards the tail end, they realize returns by transacting those sales or public announcements. So it takes a while for private equity strategy to
Flag: the recognized words and the detected speech do not line up · 01:04:48–01:05:02 · gap filled by a machine re-reading (not checked by a person)
Flag: the machine readings disagree here; a language review questioned the wording · 01:05:03–01:05:07 · unresolved: the words are not shown (unclear audio); listen to the recording
just gives you an idea of the lifecycle or different types of investments, styles for private equity, venture capital, growth equity, buyout, and distressed. I highlighted that. Page 24 gives you a chart of what that looks like. Page 25 is really nuts and bolts of why people want to invest in private equity.
not perfect correlation. Number two is the real big thing, it has done quite well over the past 30 years. That's why whenever you do an asset allocation study, any allocation with private equity is always going to look better because the return has been so strong. The challenge though is that you have a great disparity between very good managers and very bad managers.
accessibility is very difficult. Flip, next page, page 26. Guess which color is private equity? It's green, right? So it just pops out at you. Whether you look at the five years, ten years, or twenty years on a rolling basis, private equity has just outperformed public equity, real estate, bonds. We gave you a public form of equity and then the private form of debt versus fixed income. So private, public of both equities and fixed income.
have outperformed their proxies of public equity and public fixed income. Which is why, again, when you do active allocation studies, you're always going to have a piece that potentially goes into real estate, potentially goes into private equity.

call ‸ something else probably. Subway has had some challenges because they are actually losing market share to Panera, Firehouse Subs. So there are other things happening. Jersey Mike's.
Page 28 gives you some of the drawbacks and risks for private equity. We just labeled five of them. Structure problem. They are very complex legal agreements. The J curve problem. The way private equity works is that in the beginning years, you're making investments. So you're not getting any returns. But you still have to pay the people to make those investments. So that's why you have a negative return. So your negative return is the bottom part of the J. And eventually as you sell companies, as money is invested and then they're sold, you get returns. So it looks like a J. The return is negative and then it goes up. Vintage year problem. Just like wines have good ‸ years. Private equity funds have good years and bad years.
The accessibility problem I mentioned to you, some very good managers are very difficult to get into. The diversity problem really talks about actually diversification of different types of strategies of private equity.
figure out how a food service company works. While another one might be very good at how oil companies work or technology companies or healthcare companies.

But then everything else could be pretty much illiquid. So over time what's happened is that there's something called the Yale model. Which was started by Yale. And over time ‸ they've had access. Because it is a very good university. Some of their alumni were at private equities. Also private equities want to be associated with a good name. Over time their portfolio has grown into more

No. They are definitely not hurting for money. Page 29 just gives you an idea of different ways of investing in private equity. Primary funds, secondary funds, fund of funds, and co-investment. I think the easiest way to understand it is page 30. Now it looks a little bit challenging. So it's my job to hopefully decipher all of this for you. Okay. So the way I would step into this is ‸ that we're going

Now, not only would we invest in private equity fund too, but private equity fund too has great ideas, A, B, C, etc. Right? Well, one of those ideas, number A, they have to invest in it or there's an opportunity for them to invest a lot of money into it, but they don't want to put all of that investment into private equity fund
Yes. They, ‸ private equity fund too wants to diversify themselves. They don't want to have too much risk in one fund, but there's this wonderful opportunity that they have in company A. They want to capitalize on that opportunity.
That's called co-investing. That then becomes LP 14. So LP 14 is taking a little bit more direct risk by saying, I want to invest in that company A alongside private equity fund too. It's a little bit more risk, but also you potentially get

We like those investments, but we're going to give you a haircut. We'll give you 90 cents on the dollar. That's called a secondary fund. So what a secondary fund does is it goes out there in the marketplace, tries to find opportunities that are selling at a discount. Why are they selling at a discount? There's some sort of structural reason why that LP wants to get out. Whether it be as an individual, you're going through a divorce or let's say the LP happens to be a money manager, um, a bank. A bank that gets bought by another bank and the new bank says,
Exactly. So there was a quota to the 12 year life history of a fund. You can get out, but you get out at a haircut anywhere typically from 10 to 25%. The other one is a fund of funds. So if you go to the right, this is probably the most likely route for us. We would be fund LP 10, for instance, because even if we invested 10% of our assets, it represents about $2.5 million.

I'm sorry, private equity fund three, which is then going to invest in other private equity funds, let's say two and four, that are going to directly invest in stocks or companies. So private equity fund three is a fund of funds.
Private equity four might just focus on growth equity for restaurants, let's say, or consumer disposables, whatever it is. So the way that you're diversifying your bet is by going to a private equity fund of funds. And it does have an extra layer of fees, but what you're looking at are net of fee returns. Do they

there are a couple of benchmarks that you can look at, but at the end of the day, what you're doing is you're trying to get better than public returns over the long term. Sure.
And it is long term. So that in a nutshell is private equity. I went through it pretty quickly, but this is stuff that you hear about at conferences all the time. You have multiple private equity firms approaching you guys over time as well.

but I wouldn't print the bills out. But I find this one so fascinating that I thought I'd print it out and give it to you. So you can read it whenever you want. Uh,
I'm going to take you to page nine. Uh, if you look at page nine of 49, uh, you're going to see a provision there that amends chapter 112 Florida statutes, and this would apply to pension funds, including yours. And what you will see in the first section, there is a definition of pecuniary factor. And that is a factor that the plan administrator named fiduciary board board of trustees prudently determines is expected to have a material effect on the risk of returns of an investment based on appropriate investment horizons,
Basically anything that's going to have an effect or impact on money, right? That is a pecuniary factor. And then as it continues down at the bottom of that page, uh,
you're going to see in number three, that when deciding whether to exercise shareholder rights, when deciding whether or not to make an investment, you can only use pecuniary factors. And I bring this up because you guys have discussed this before.
companies that invest in China, or we don't know if we want companies that, you know, engage in, you know, various activities. All of that would no longer be a factor. The only thing that you would be allowed to consider are pecuniary factors. Meaning, is it going to be a good investment? Now, obviously you're going to rely on your investment consultants, you know, for that advice, but this law would prohibit you from making any other consideration or taking any other consideration. And then you'll see in number four, going to your

mandates, they get handed down to us on high. And number four, we would have to file reports certifying that we have complied, uh, and only consider pecuniary factors when making investment decisions or when instructing how to vote our proxies. You would not be able to like you. We have a lot of pension funds that adopt the AFL-CIO's voting proxy.

That, that would all be prohibited under this law. Uh, so this is, this is coming up during this session, starting March 7th. So we're not very far away. Uh, then you'll see on the next page, page 11, that the DMS, you would file your reports with the DMS and then the DMS, which is the department of management services. They oversee the retirement section for police and fire
And you can thumb through this. I'm going to take you over to page 35. There are all kinds of requirements in here that apply to all kinds of industries. This is just the pension, but

If you go to the next page, you'll see the substance of that amendment, but these are going to be restrictions on contracting. Uh, so when entering into a contract, we do it. We just had the discussion about the provisions in the foster and foster, right?
You got, you have to use E verify when hiring new employees. Here come more restrictions on contracting that we would have to comply with. But you'll see in number two, uh, an awarding body, which would be the board of trustees may not request documentation

administrator, you know, anybody come in and we go, Hey, uh, you know, what party are you registered? Yeah. ‸ Yeah. I mean, we, we haven't done these things, but we have had these discussions, particularly about investments. Uh, so understand that all of that would be prohibited. And then if you look at the bottom of that page and continuing on, you will see how broad and comprehensive this is. Uh, there are protections in there for religious beliefs, uh, that give a company the ability to, for example,
But then I can't discriminate against somebody for their religious belief. So there are things I think that are internally inconsistent, but you look at the next page, page 37 and just go down, you know, persons, political opinion, speech or affiliations, uh, any factor that's not quantitative, impartial risk based. Uh, you cannot, uh, ownership of a firearm is, is there at number three in the bottom of that page. Uh, their engagement in the lawful manufacturing distribution sale purchase of firearms or ammunition.

energies, timber, mining, agriculture. You know, so they're removing all of these considerations from you, prohibiting you from considering them. It'd be fascinating to watch this shake out.

to break that tie. They've removed the tiebreaker rule, said no more. Now you can actually use that as a consideration. The DOL recognized that ESG considerations might be pecuniary because they might ‸ have an impact on a company's profitability or the return on that investment. You also have like the UK, for example. ‸ UK requires pension funds to consider ESG considerations when making an investment decision.
You have to certify that you did because UK as a government has made a decision that these ESG considerations are financially material to your investments. So just, it's just FYI, you know, the, I know the FPPTA is mobilizing, uh, you know, they're gathering white papers and information, uh, to go present and they're fighting this. Uh, I just wanted you to know that it's out there to my actual agenda.

that pending piece of litigation out there, uh, that I've discussed with you at every meeting for the past couple of years. Uh, it continues to just wither in the courts. Uh, as I've said before,
We don't have any interest in taking up that matter. Eventually the court's going to say, uh, lack of prosecution when they're going to convene a virtual hearing like they did last time and something will have to happen. And if it doesn't, the court will just dismiss it on its own. So that's all we got going on. All right. Any questions?
For president dissent. I mean, government dissent. Exactly. All the sheep are going that way. Yeah. Yeah. And yet you're supposed to be the ones that are trying to cut costs, you know?
