The PERAC Investment
Unit has developed three new investment guidelines which
are intended to offer the retirement boards increased
flexibility with which to accomplish their investment
objectives.
The guidelines pertain to:
|
1.
|
Expediting
the ability of a system to subscribe to a new
offering by an alternative assets partnership
manager with whom it has previously invested. |
|
|
|
|
2.
|
Permitting
a modest modification to an investment managers
mandate in certain cases. |
|
|
|
|
3.
|
Allowing
the limited use of certain interest rate financial
futures and options solely as a duration management
tool within an investment managers mandated
duration range, and allowing the limited use of
equity index financial futures and options as
a short-term liquidity tool within a managers
existing mandate. |
Boards may follow these
guidelines subject to PERAC approval of an appropriate
supplementary regulation request and the submission
of other required information. Please address any
questions or comments to the PERAC Investment Unit.
