Review Of Investment Performance For Periods Ending 31 March 2017 Additional documents:
Minutes: The Assistant Investments Manager introduced this item and summarised the key facts as set out in sections 4 and 5 of the report.
Steve Turner (Mercer) introduced the investment performance report including the performance of individual investment managers. Members of the Panel discussed the report, and performance of all investment managers with Steve Turner and officers.
The Panel asked about the future of the Avon Pension Fund’s investment managers once the Fund’s assets are pooled into Project Brunel. The Investment Manager responded that Project Brunel would use their selection criteria and potentially deliver savings based upon the collective buying power the collaboration initiative would produce. Local accountability would be maintained as each individual fund would remain responsible for strategic decisions including asset allocation. The pooling of assets would only affect the implementation of the investment strategy.
It was RESOLVED to note the information as set out in the report. |

|
Minutes: The Investment Manager presented the report and highlighted that future Panel activity will focus on the outcomes of the Strategic Investment Review.
RESOLVED to note the workplan. |
