<br />San Leandro Investment Policy Review <br />Recommendations by Chandler Asset Management <br /> <br />Staff <br />Recommendations <br /> <br />Page 2. Delegation of Investment Authority.... Consider adding "The Agency may <br />engage the services of one or more external investment managers to assist in the <br />management of the Agency's investment portfolio in a manner consistent with the <br />Agency's objectives. Such external managers may be granted discretion to purchase <br />and sell investment securities in accordance with this Investment Policy. Such <br />managers must be registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940." <br /> <br />Page 3. Yield or Return on Investment - yield..... suggested to drop the first "Yield <br />or" and replace the second "Yield" with "Return". <br /> <br />Page 5. Commercial Paper ....drop the last sentence of this paragraph as it is not <br />congruent with current State Code. Suggested replacing with "no more than 25% of <br />the portfolio can be invested in commercial paper. <br /> <br />Page 5. Medium-Term Corporate Notes. Consider increasing 10% maximum, <br />State Code allows up to 30% maximum. <br /> <br />Page 7. Performance Standard - suggest replacing this paragraph with: <br /> <br />Specific objectives and expectations: <br /> <br />Overall objective: The investment portfolio shall be designed with the overall objective <br />of obtaining a total rate of return throughout economic cycles, commensurate with <br />investment risk constraints and cash flow needs. <br /> <br />Specific objective: The investment performance objective for the portfolio shall be to <br />earn a total rate of return over a market cycle which is approximately equal to the <br />return on a market index of 1-3 year Treasury and Federal Agency securities. <br /> <br />Pages 8-10 Appendix.
