TRUSTEE SONI: Present.

MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum.

TRUSTEE SONI: A new law was passed,

Public Act 101-0640, which allows this meeting to

be conducted by video conference. The new Act

requires a roll call vote on each matter acted

upon. I ask that Trustees please be prepared to

unmute their microphones and clearly respond to the

roll call vote on each matter that we consider for

approval. Are there any questions?

One final note, consistent with Public

Act 101-0640, I note for the record that the

Executive Director is physically present at our

office. We are proceeding by video conference

because we continue to believe that due to the

pandemic it is prudent to not be physically present

in the same space. We have posted notice of this

meeting in accordance with the Open Meetings Act

and the meeting is being recorded. A transcript of

the proceedings will be prepared and ultimately,

after approval, will be made available to the

public on the Fund's website

Consistent with Public Act 91-0715 and

reasonable constraints determined by the Board of

Trustees, at each Regular Meeting of the Board or

its committees that is open to the public, members

of the public may request a brief time to address

the Board on relevant matters within its

jurisdiction.

Are there any requests for public comment

today?

Hearing none, we will move on.

First, we turn to the approval of the

Minutes. Is there a motion to approve the Regular

Meeting Minutes from the February 28th, March 19th,

is relatively flat from last month so no changes to

report.

TRUSTEE SONI: Any questions by the

Board?

Moving to Investments. Jamie, I will

turn it over to you to address the Investments.

MR. WESNER: Thank you, Trustee Soni.

Good morning, everyone. I know you have

a very full agenda today. We will start with the

market tracker for May and talk a little bit

through the market environment and then we will

highlight some of the performance of your managers

within the portfolio.

Again, starting off with the market

tracker, May was another strong month in the

rebound. You continue to see equity markets

increase, really all risk assets across the board

saw a rebound in May, and that has continued into

June.

We have continued to see volatility in

the markets. Really the big driver for the markets

is continuing to increase at a faster pace than

what we are seeing in terms of the economic

recovery which is really because of all the

Page 13: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

stimulus that has been put into the market.

The Federal Reserve has continued to put

in trillions of dollars of monetary stimulus. And

the Federal Government, while it hasn't taken any

action over the last few months, has put its own

3 trillion dollars in fiscal stimulus.

There are extensions of additional fiscal

stimulus over the coming months. Potentially an

extension of some of the unemployment benefits.

Also an infrastructure package, spending package,

has been discussed. Again to inject more

liquidity, more money, into the economy.

The market has really driven equity

markets higher over the last several months.

Again, day-to-day a lot of the volatility

is driven by either what we hear from the Federal

Government in terms of additional stimulus or what

we're hearing in terms of progress in the fight

versus the virus and the progress from the pandemic

and how the economy is opening back up.

Last week we saw one of the most volatile

days in the whole year because of discussions,

people discussing, you know, continuing the

struggles versus containing the virus, that is

Page 14: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

going to continue.

When you have good news, the market will

respond positively. When you have bad news, the

market will respond negatively.

I think that is really the background,

that is what ties into the numbers you see here on

the page.

Again, the U.S. equity markets for May up

almost 5 percent to the S&P 500. The trend that

has really been in place for the last several years

has continued. That is unusual for a recessionary

environment, it is really the cause of the

recession that has caused this trend to continue.

The trends I am alluding to are that

growth has continued to outperform value. Large

cap has continued to outperform small cap and U.S.

has continued to outperform international.

Really because this downturn caused a

complete shutdown of the services sector which

typically is resilient during a recession. And we

saw the growth stocks, the technology stocks,

really benefit, that is why a lot of these trends

have continued. I think it is important to keep

that in mind.

You will see it with the performance of

your managers. You will see it with the

performance of the total portfolio and that trend

has not shifted very much, that is what is

highlighted really in the middle of the page.

We will look at the blue box with the

year-to-date figures. Large cap growth up 5

percent. Small cap value is still down 25 percent.

So we're still seeing a 30 point differential just

between U.S. equities of the best performing and

worse performing parts of the market. Again, it is

really going to be a big dictator of performance

over your overall portfolio.

The international market, which is the

second table on the left-hand column, is not quite

up as much as U.S. markets for the month of May.

International markets are actually outpacing U.S.

markets in June by a rather healthy margin, but you

can see here for May broad international markets up

3.3 percent. The second line on that table.

Emerging markets only up not even a

percent during May, but they are up over 7 percent

thus far in the month of June.

We are going to see some really different

Page 16: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

numbers come out of June than we are seeing so far

from May.

If we shift to the upper right-hand part

of the page, we can look at fixed income. Fixed

income, really the story here, the first part of

the year you want as much quality as you can have.

You can see core bonds up 5 and a half

percent year-to-date, that is continuing in the

downward movement in the interest rates and the

upward move of bond prices.

The one thing that is different in the

last couple of months, just like equities have

rebounded, high yield bonds, bank loans, about

two-thirds of the way down that table, you can see

high yield bonds up 4 and a half percent for May.

Bank loans up just a little under 4 percent for

May.

We are seeing those parts of the market

up another 2 to 3 percent thus far in June.

Continuing to rebound in the risk assets and you

are not getting as much of the flight to quality.

One other area that I will highlight is

the hedge fund space. Traditional hedge funds

performed relatively well. We saw the biggest

Page 17: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

bounce for the month of May reflective in your

Neuberger and Parametric investments.

We have a tremendous volatility in these

benchmarks for the year-to-date period. Really the

reason why is because we have seen so much

volatility in such a short period of time.

These strategies like volatility but not

volatility that moves in 10 to 15 percent in a

single month. These strategies perform best in

markets where we are seeing 3 to 4 percent

volatility. It has been a little bit whipsaw over

the last three to four months but they are

performing better. They performed better in May

and we have seen better returns for them in June

thus far.

The one thing I will just leave you with

is the bottom left-hand part of the page. These

figures are not updated. As you all know, the real

estate figures are only updated on a quarterly

basis for your private real estate.

We have been getting a lot more

information from our real estate managers and what

we have heard is that they are anticipating over

the next two or three quarters in that 5 to 7

Page 18: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

percent range.

Retail real estate investments are going

to be the weakest followed by office and

multi-family and industrial are holding up

relatively well, that is what we are hearing back

from the real estate managers. They are trying to

manage liquidity, but again as we all know some

parts of the real estate market have really gotten

hit. Especially retail because a lot of those

companies that are businesses that are in malls or

strip malls are not able to pay their rent so those

assets are going to be marked down.

We will continue to give you more

information as we get it. Those are some of the

preliminary estimates that managers are starting to

give us guidance on the figures.

Any questions before we jump into the

portfolio?

We will jump in and take a review of the

portfolio. Really one of the big things in terms

of the portfolio for the month of May has been

active managers have actively performed relatively

well.

We know that we have been in an

environment where active managers have

underperformed quite a bit. We have seen active

managers perform much better.

We can go down to the market value page

first to see where the actual dollar amounts are

because this will be a factor in terms of our

rebalancing.

As we look at market values and the like,

we are obviously seeing a decrease in the market

values. For the first part of the year we have

seen a rebound. So we are just below 3 and a half

billion dollars in assets as of the end of May.

Overall, towards our policy targets, we

have stayed relatively close to our policy targets.

As we meet benefit payments, our monthly market

value ends with an allocation to cash which we

don't have in our policy target so all the other

asset classes seem a bit light.

As you can see, we are very close to our

policy targets really across the board. A few

areas where we are a bit overweight, which are

hedge funds and your real assets, those are all

areas where we have taken steps to reduce those and

we have redemption requests in which will help us

bring those dollar amounts down.

If we move forward to performance, which

is two pages forward, we can take a look at the

overall performance for the plan for the period.

Again, May was a nice month. We saw the

portfolio rebound by 3 percent. We still are a bit

below our policy target. The main drivers for this

is our policy benchmark. It has an allocation just

to core fixed income.

As we all know, we have allocations to

high yield and bank loans in this portfolio and

those have performed not as strong as core bonds

and that is some of the reason for the

underperformance you see towards the top of the

page.

For the one month, most all of your

strategies rebounded. You can see all of your core

bond managers are all above the benchmark.

As I mentioned before, risk assets

started to come back and you can see that most of

your managers start to rebound as we see the bond

prices come back quite a bit.

High yield and bank loans. MacKay

Shields is your conservative bond manager. In a

tough market for high yield, a conservative manager

is going to outperform. They are outperforming

year-to-date by about 2 percent net of fees.

Crescent is about 1 percent below the benchmark.

And then Symphony, your bank loan manager, about 1

and a half percent below the benchmark.

We are seeing a few issues with Symphony

in terms of the market and prices we are seeing

from your custodian Northern Trust versus what we

are seeing from Symphony, but those typically do

average out over time.

If we continue back to the U.S. equity

part of the page, U.S. equities is the area of the

portfolio where we actually did see a rebound in

performance because we did see active managers

start to outperform which was very positive.

We saw managers like Great Lakes

outperforming by a percent for the month of May,

just slightly under for the year-to-date period.

At the bottom of the page, Ariel, your

active manager in the SMID value space,

outperforming by about 2 percent.

You can see through the three months and

the year-to-date period, although it's been tough

Page 22: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

sledding in the value part of the U.S. stock

market, particularly in the small and mid-cap

space, Ariel was outperforming by 4 percent net of

fees.

Continuing down to the next page, here we

see a lot of active manager outperformance. First

the manager that outperformed the most, Kayne

Anderson, one of your small cap managers.

Year-to-date they are outperforming by 22 percent

net of fees.

So, if you recall when you hired this

manager last year at this time, they had a very

concentrated portfolio and very defined stock

selection process. They had a really huge out-

performance. Even during the month of May, they

outperformed by 8 percent net of fees. They

continue to have a very strong performance with the

strong stock selection.

Nuveen, which was also hired at the same

time, a little bit of a different story. More

quantitative managers, who have more of a funnel

focus for their valuation and try to rely more on

historical data. They struggle, because as I

mentioned during the market commentary, this market

Page 23: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

dislocation has been different than other market

dislocations and that has really caused managers

like Nuveen and a few others that we will talk

about in a moment and to struggle for fundamental

managers who are purely underlying stock pickers

have been able to show a little bit more value

added.

On the international side, this has been

the part of your portfolio that consistently

outperformed. In here you have the majority of

your active managers outperforming so really four

out of five managers outperforming active managers.

So LSV, MacKay Shields, Walter Scott,

those are your three core managers. LSV on the

value side, MacKay Shields more on the core and

Walter Scott on growth, all outperforming their

benchmarks.

You can't see here, though, year-to-date,

outperformance means something very different. All

these managers are in green, that means they are

outperforming their benchmark. But Walter Scott is

only down 2.4 percent, where LSV is down 19.9

percent. LSV, while they are beating the

benchmark, certainly by absolute terms, and it has

still been a struggle for them.

The manager in the international space --

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Jamie, get into Segal

Bryant & Hamill, I want to hear you defend them.

MR. WESNER: We are going there. With

Segal Bryant, all these quantitative managers have

continued to struggle.

As we talked at the last meeting, we had

the plans of doing now a search in this space to

re-assess Segal Bryant and then also at the same

time look to see whether we want to have active

management where we have index. You can see here

part of this investment index. Some with the

Northern Trust in the index fund. The remainder

with Segal Bryant.

By doing a search, we can assess whether

we want to add a compliment to Segal Bryant, who

again is more value oriented, a more quantitative

manager, or whether we want to replace them.

So, again, it has been certainly a

frustrating process for them. They participated

more in this downside and less on the upside. As

we all know, that is exactly what you don't want a

manager to do.

Page 25: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

As Trustee Johnson just pointed out, this

has been a manager that has continued to struggle.

It is on our Watch List and we'll take steps over

the coming months to present you with further

assessment and some additional options to consider.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: How much did we

originally fund on that?

MR. WESNER: I don't recall off the top

of my head. Maybe Steve remembers.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: I believe Steve just

said 50 million.

MR. YOON: We started with the 50 million

initially and halfway through our relationship we

gave them another 50 million.

MR. WESNER: 100 million dollars total.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Okay.

MR. WESNER: So the final manager in the

international space is William Blair on the

emerging market side.

As we know here, a manager that has been

volatile for us but most recently the volatility

has been in the right direction.

Year-to-date period it outperformed by 7

percent net of fees. One year period outperformed

Page 26: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

by less than a half percent net of fees.

So we know we get big swings with William

Blair. Most recently on the upside and

outperforming our benchmark.

Nice thing to see here, that portfolio

does tilt more towards the growth space so that has

benefited them as well.

On the next page, similar to what I was

talking about with Segal Bryant and with Nuveen, we

talk about Acadian on the global low volatility

side.

As you recall, the search was just done

last year, towards the end of last year. Global

low volatility managers are very quantitative

focused and a lot of these quantitated strategies

have underperformed.

As you can see, both of those strategies

have underperformed again both on the downside of

the upside, which is less than ideal. But,

obviously, they are newly funded and we will

continue to give these managers time.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: The whole point of us

doing that was to protect on volatility issues.

MR. WESNER: Agreed. When we look at

Page 27: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

managers, like global low volatility managers, we

certainly have seen it pretty consistent across the

board, these managers have great numbers even

during up markets.

Prior to the COVID pandemic, we had not

projected as much as we anticipated on the

downside.

On the hedge fund side, we have seen

relatively strong outperformance by most all of the

managers again to varying degrees.

Traditional hedge fund managers, like

Rock Creek, have navigated this environment very

well. Especially since Rock Creek is more of a

global manager and they have more international

exposure, they are only down 2.7 percent

year-to-date.

Our two defensive equity strategies, as I

talked about in the market environment, the drivers

here is these managers have gotten hit on the

downside of the upside.

If you recall, these managers as we

talked about sell insurance. If you are thinking

about traditional insurance companies, they have

gotten hit with back-to-back hurricanes essentially

Page 28: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

on the downside and they got hit and had to payout

insurance on the downside when the markets were

going down. Parametric more than Neuberger when

the markets were going back up in April and May got

hit. They didn't participate as much on the upside

as you can see the differential performance between

Parametric and Neuberger year-to-date. Neuberger

being a stronger performer by about 4 percent.

If you recall, back in 2018 and 2019,

Parametric consistently outperforming and now we

have seen Neuberger's strategy outperform. They

are about equal when it comes to their since

inception performance.

Again, it's good to have strategies when

one is going to zig when the other zags.

We will wrap up with real assets.

Obviously, no changes in this short-term because

these managers only report quarterly.

Again, as I mentioned before, we are

anticipating to see manager performance in the real

estate be down in that 5 to 7 percent range with

price depreciation. We will still continue to see

income but prices are going to readjust in the real

estate space.

I know there are a lot of bits and

pieces. Any questions?

Then, Steve, I will leave it to you to

discuss the funding options. Obviously, we know

that, after a several month period of not needing

to raise cash flow, we do need to raise cash flow

this month. Steve will share the recommended areas

for liquidity.

MR. YOON: Good morning, trustees. Good

morning, everyone.

While we pull up the staff report, in

terms of portfolio growth, obviously, you saw the

performance of our portfolio. It's good to see the

rebound in the market, which certainly helps us to

close the gap back into the break even point.

Overall, trending in the right direction but more

to come in the near future, obviously.

In the next slide, Asset Allocation, no

news to report there. A lot of our traditional

asset classes are underweight due to what happened

in the market and that kind of tilted our portfolio

somewhat to an illiquid space. Same story from the

last month.

No report on the capital activity. We'll

go to the cash flow. We are currently sitting at

about 58 million. We held on to the cash that we

received early in February and March. So we held

on to it this long and now we are needing

approximately 30 million from liquidation of

managers to meet our benefits.

Going forward, it will be the typical

scenario where we will be redeeming some portion of

our redemption from managers going forward as we

await the second installment from the City

contribution, which is approximately 66 million

remaining due around the August time period.

For this month, we're requesting the

board to redeem 15 million from Segal Bryant

Hamill's intermediate fixed income portfolio and 15

million from LM intermediate fixed income portfolio

as well given that fixed income has held up nicely

and provided us with some protection.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Where are we at with

cash flow projections? I know we did our model

previously. Are we on target with what we had

projected until we had to liquidate?

MR. YOON: Back in May, I provided a memo

to the board with the cash flow projections. No

Page 31: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

changes since then. Obviously, we received a

majority of our contributions from the City back in

February and March and what is remaining from the

City's contribution level is about 66 million due

to come in around August from the property tax

levies.

And looking ahead into the rest of the

year, that dries up all of our cash contribution

that is assigned to us for this year. We will have

to redeem approximately anywhere from 60 to 80

million per month.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Okay. Thank you.

MR. YOON: With that, I would like to ask

the board for a motion to approve 15 million from

Segal Bryant Hamill intermediate fixed income and

15 million from LM intermediate fixed income.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Motion by Trustee

Johnson. 15 million from Segal Bryant, 15 million

from LM.

Action Plan.

On the last page, Rock Creek we

implemented, based on the Trustees' approval at the

last board meeting, to move into the Phase 2 and 3

of amendment of our Rock Creek mandate.

We have started our conversation with

Rock Creek to amend the guidelines to include

private credit. That is in motion and we will

report back once it is complete.

Request for Proposal, I should have put a

date on there. We are expecting possible Request

For Proposal in the fourth quarter of 2020, if not

sooner. Our conversation has been around possibly

taking index money to actives, that we have about

40 million with Northern Trust asset management.

A final request that I have would be to

remove JP Morgan strategic property fund as well as

NIS core fixed income from off of the Watch List.

They have been on watch since August, 2019 and

November, 2019 respectfully due to personnel and

organizational changes.

companies and we feel comfortable moving them off

of the Watch List.

If I could ask the Board to make a motion

to remove JP Morgan and NIS from the Watch List.

MR. SLACK: So moved.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Seconded by Trustee

Johnson.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Yes, ma'am.

MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni.

TRUSTEE SONI: Yes.

MS. HANSEN: Mr. Slack.

MR. YOON: Thank you.

We continue to monitor Segal Bryant

Hamill and meet with them on a regular basis.

If you don't have any questions, I will

pass it back to Stacey.

MS. RUFFOLO: Actually, Trustee Soni, I

believe that the next item on our agenda is our IT

RFP presentations and the first company up is EKI.

MR. WHITE: Before we get started with

the IT presentation, we were extremely pleased to

get the number of applicants that we did from

proposals and the quality of the responders were

all fantastic.

With that in mind, I know some of the

proposers have some concerns about possibly sharing

their numbers with others so before we go into the

presentations we are going to pull the IT

presenters sort of out of the meeting, except for

when they are presenting. We will identify them

and we will put them out of the meeting while the

other proposers are presenting.

I think the first one up is EKI. We will

put all of the other IT responders out of the

meeting. We'll pull them out of the meeting,

except for EKI.

MR. RIGG: This is Chris Rigg from EKI.

We are teaming with Wynndalco, too, so there is

three folks from Wynndalco that are part of our

proposal.

Do you know who those are and you can

include them, keep them on?

MR. WHITE: If you could identify

MR. FLORES: Jose Flores, Herman Andalcio

and Solomon Kahn.

MR. WHITE: I think we are ready, Chris.

MR. RIGG: Thank you. I did send a

presentation last evening. Is that going to be

displayed on the screen?

MR. WHITE: Yes.

MR. RIGG: Good morning and thanks for

giving us both the opportunity to respond and the

opportunity to present to the board meeting here

today.

If we can, I want to go over our agenda.

What I wanted to do was, one, introduce the members

of the team that are here with you today. Talk

about the two firms, an overview of the two firms,

a history of the two firms that are presenting. We

will talk about our understanding of your needs,

based on what we saw in the RFP, and then our

approach to your response to our response to

meeting your needs and then any questions that you

may have.

I am assuming that agenda is okay but I

If we go to the next page, when I first

received the RFP to EKI Digital and I read the

requirements, one of the first things I did I

reached out to Wynndalco Enterprises because EKI

and Wynndalco have a very strong ongoing

relationship. We have worked very successfully

with other clients.

Wynndalco specializes in a lot of the

services around. Supporting the networks.

Supporting the PC's. Supporting all of the ongoing

services where EKI Digital is much more of a web

development, application development, and

technology consulting firm.

We felt like we wanted to provide both

firms together which provides the best opportunity

to meet your needs.

I will talk just briefly. I want to

introduce myself. My name is Christopher Rigg. I

am the COO of EKI Digital. I joined EKI actually

in January. I have over 30 years experience in

technology specifically for financial services.

So prior to joining EKI I was a partner

in Ernst and Young. I lead the capital market

technology practice both for the buy side and the

sell side. I retired from Ernst and Young in

October and I joined EKI, based on my relationship

with Robert Blackwell, the owner of EKI. I have

known him for 25 years.

Prior to that I was a technology

executive at Bank of America. I started my career

at Blackwell Consulting working with Robert who is

the owner of EKI Digital.

Jose, do you want to go ahead and

introduce yourself?

MR. FLORES: Good morning. My name is

Jose Flores. I am the President/COO of Wynndalco

Enterprises. I have been with the firm for over

nine years now, but I have worked with the owner

for the last 25 years on various companies and

initiatives.

I basically bring a lot of experience

within the Chicagoland area state and local

government entities. We do a lot of work with the

Page 38: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

schools, the county, the airport and so on. And I

think we're going to go into a little more detail

about that.

My specialty is being able to manage

projects as well as from the technology aspect of

this, being able to make sure we implement and

provide the best services for our customers at the

end of the day.

I will pass it on to Herman.

MR. ANDALCIO: Good morning. Herman

Andalcio here. I am the Senior Account Executive

for Wynndalco. I have been with Wynndalco for ten

years. Working with Jose our Chief Operating

Officer and Chief Executive Officer David Andalcio

for 27 years.

Working with the City of Chicago and all

its sister agencies. I would be considered more of

a relationship manager but do a lot of project

management. I will go into detail later. I am

also a veteran of the Marine Corp and Navy.

MR. RIGG: Then we have one more person

whose photo we did not have on file but that is

Solomon Kahn. Kahn, if you want to give a little

background of yourself as well.

MR. KAHN: I am the Technical Director

for Wynndalco on the technical side. Certified in

all of the Microsoft technologies as a Microsoft

Solutions partner. Looking forward to working with

you to help with the technology.

MR. RIGG: Thank you.

If we can go to the next page to a quick

overview of EKI Digital. We are over 20 years old.

We were formed in 1998 by Robert Blackwell, Jr. We

are a technology consulting firm that specializes

in doing digital work for state and local

government and financial services institutions.

Those are our largest industry segments that we

have done.

We have a very long relationship with the

City of Chicago, with Cook County, with the Park

District, many other public institutions. We have

done a large amount of work for the State of

Illinois, State of Indiana. And from the

commercial business prospective, we did a

tremendous amount of work with Walmart, Northern

Trust, BMO Harris, et cetera.

We are a MBE. We are 100 percent owned

by Robert Blackwell, Jr.

Going to the next page, we will talk a

little bit about the work that we have done, which

I think is relevant to the work that the Pension

Fund Board here is looking to complete.

The City of Chicago is probably our

longest ongoing relationship. We have worked with

the City for over 20 years. We have a team of

people that are dedicated to supporting the City's

web infrastructure. If you go to the

cityofchicago.org, all of that web infrastructure

we have built. We support.

If you make a payment, pay a parking

ticket or any other payments you make through that

web infrastructure those --

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: I'm sorry to jump in

there. You said the City of Chicago system. Have

you done anything with the system with Personnel/

HR where you apply for jobs and stuff like that,

was that part of your project?

MR. RIGG: Not that I know of. Like I

say, we support the web infrastructure and then a

lot of the integration architecture.

So if you are a technology person inside

of the City and you want to connect different

Page 41: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

systems together, we provide the underlying

integration capabilities to do that.

I would have to go back and check with

our team. We have been being work with the City

for a really long time.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: No problem.

MR. RIGG: Beyond the City, we worked

with Cook County. Identified massive amount of

savings for them in terms of how to use technology

more effectively and we have worked with a number

of schools, districts and other state and locals.

Really an extensive amount of experience

helping companies and institutions use technology

to be more effective.

Jose, do you want to take us through the

Wynndalco overview?

MR. FLORES: Wynndalco Enterprises,

obviously, is a minority owned company as well. We

have been in business and have worked in Chicago

for over 30 years. Not as Wynndalco but David

Andalcio, who is a really driven individual, has

held multiple positions within different

organizations but he has also been conducting

business in the Chicagoland area for 39 plus years.

Page 42: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

I can't attest to that because I am not that old

yet.

Other than that, we do a lot of work with

the Chicago Public Schools today. We are the one

entity that receives every single piece of

equipment for Chicago Public Schools to our

facility. We prep those devices, asset tag,

remediate, image and then we do distribution

throughout the City and then support that as well.

As far as in terms of being capable of

handling different entities, just to give you the

type of skill in Chicagoland area, we have about 70

to 90,000 devices that flow through our facilities.

Where we go ahead and asset tag, image and prep

those devices as well as distribute them to the

Chicagoland area schools.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: What type of device are

you talking about that you distribute?

MR. FLORES: Everything from Chromebooks,

laptops, desktops, we do x-ray machines.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: The Chromebooks to the

students is part of your project?

MR. FLORES: For teachers and interactive

training within the classrooms. We do everything

Page 43: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

from not just the delivery but also the

installation and integration of it.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: How would you say that

has gone so far with this shutdown? How has that

impacted you with the schools with the remote

learning and everything because I have to say I

have heard some bad things with the IT aspect of

it.

MR. FLORES: It's been very difficult

just because of the shut down that they have and

the handcuffs that have been put in place for

social distancing. Being able to have more than

one person in a vehicle. So as an entity we have

been able to ramp up and have multiple vehicles

throughout a single location to be able to deal

with the social distancing.

We immediately put processes in place so

we can go ahead and meet some of the needs. A lot

of the difficulty from the technology aspect as it

relates to Covid has really been with having

equipment available. Because every single school

across the nation has been requesting equipment,

there has been a lot of backlog and back orders.

I can give you an example. We have been

Page 44: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

involved with the New York Department of Education

as well and large entities and school districts

like that have gone out immediately to purchase

like the entire nation's inventory.

New York has just gone out there and

bought 400,000 devices, which has created a backlog

for other school districts. I think Dallas

independent school district went out and purchased

another 200,000. What that created is a cascading

affect for schools not being able to get equipment

based upon their preapproved products.

They have gone outside to different

markets to get that but it has really created a big

headache.

I can tell you that from a Chicagoland

area we have been able to assist by sending -- for

over a period of six weeks, we sent out 50

technicians to be able to extract equipment or

existing equipment in schools that were then going

to be used to send them out to the students. In

terms of capacity and capability, we were able to

help them with that.

I think if you were to talk to the

Chicago Public Schools and ask them as a reference

Page 45: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

as to our performance on what we have done for

them, I think we're a shining star.

We always do what we can and we bend over

backwards for our customers because we know how

difficult certain times can be so we go above and

beyond to make sure we meet their needs and exceed

them in most cases.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Just to walk back about

five seconds of that. What is the Wynndalco

relationship with EKI? I was kind of confused on

that.

MR. RIGG: We are two independent firms.

We are just teaming for this response. We have

worked together for other clients. When I received

the RFP, a number of the services in the RFP are

more in the Wynndalco strike zone then they are in

the EKI Digital strike zone in terms of managing

and supporting the desktop and network. A lot of

the infrastructure, IT services, that are requested

so we are subcontracting Wynndalco to do those

portions of the work for us.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Thank you, very much.

MR. FLORES: Outside of Chicago Public

Schools, we also do work within the Aviation

Page 46: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

Department supporting some of the infrastructure

for security within the Chicagoland area, O'Hare

and Midway.

And then we are also the ones to blame

for, you know, speeding tickets for the speed

cameras, red light cameras, throughout the City.

We maintain those. When you do receive a ticket,

you can blame us.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: I don't think I would

really use that as a selling point.

MR. FLORES: It's one of those things --

I can tell you how they work because sad to say our

guys like to test those cameras as well. We

receive the tickets as well. At least we know we

are doing our job.

These are some of the customers form

Chicago Public School. We are not just in

Illinois. We are certified in multiple states.

New York, Texas, Florida.

Basically, we really focus on state and

local government entities, but outside of that we

are partnered with companies like CDWG, who is a

local firm that does a lot of hardware resell and

software resell. As a resource, we have them as a

Page 47: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

great partner.

We are partnered with Dell computers.

With Dell, we have done work with them in Dallas

independent school district, New York, Chicagoland

area.

So we really have a great I guess toolkit

of different companies we can leverage to bring the

piece of product to you.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: I see a lot of

government -- all the different agencies. Have you

done any pension funds throughout the United

States?

MR. FLORES: We have not done pension

funds specifically. Basically, we have done IT

infrastructure work, manage IT services. It wasn't

specific to an entity or an industry, it was really

just as a customer need.

We have done work with Hyster-Yale Group.

SIMCO. Caterpillar is another account where we

have people in Peoria, Pontiac, Illinois, in

Minnesota and even in Canada.

We are really great at making sure we

have the right resources in place.

MR. RIGG: At EKI Digital, I can't think

Page 48: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

of a pension fund but we have done a lot of work in

the financial services space. Especially in the

hedge fund and asset management space, Including

Invesco, Ariel.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: The only reason I ask

is the pension fund IT systems, I should say for

lack of a better word, are about 30 years behind

what regular corporations are at. It is a

different animal than like a private sector

business.

We are probably closer to government

agencies but even government agencies are light

years ahead of our IT. That is going to be a very

big swing for you guys to go from Point A to Point

B in my mind is how I see it.

MR. RIGG: I would say that to your point

around government, we have worked for a number of

government agencies that are in a similar situation

in the fact that they have not invested

substantially in their technology so they are

running applications that are very old.

We did a lot of the work for the State of

Indiana. They had a number of really old

applications that were on non-supported technology.

Page 49: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

We did a lot of work to help bring them forward

more into the Cloud. Help them to try to

consolidate and get them to stop using things like

Microsoft Access or spreadsheets to get things done

when they could use Cloud based applications to get

those done.

I think we have worked with a lot of

organizations to kind of pull them forward more

into the Cloud. As a result of the fact they are

just underinvested in technology because it wasn't

a priority.

I understand some of the challenges with

trying to get older technologies to take advantage

of the newer capabilities that are out there.

MR. WHITE: This is Dennis White. Just a

quick question and one point as well. One of the

things we wanted to make clear in the RFP is that

there are at least two or three different

components of what we are attempting to do to move

our IT forward. Certainly some day-to-day

management aspects but also sort of the CIO piece

of helping us move forward.

Are you comfortable if we end up

ultimately bifurcating that work and having one

Page 50: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

provider do the CIO work and then a different

provider that may not be part of your group do the

day-to-day work? Is that something you would be

comfortable with?

MR. RIGG: Yes. I think we are here to

support you and make you as successful as we can.

Whatever scope of work you ultimately believe we

are best suited for, then we will bring the best

team to deliver that and we don't have any issues

working with other firms. We do it all the time

for many of our clients.

MR. WHITE: I want to make clear that is

a question that we will ask all of the groups just

to confirm on the record because certainly

throughout the process we try to make sure we

shared all the questions and answers from the staff

prospective with each of the vendors. We wanted to

get your response on the record.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Real quick. In a

perfect world, Dennis, how do you see this RFP

playing out with the IT? How do you -- what is the

word I am looking for here -- have a vision of

seeing where they play in with IT?

MR. WHITE: Just to speak clearly, and I

Page 51: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

don't mind sharing this with the vendor, the first

step I see is a solidifying our day-to-day

management. And then sort of as part of the 2021

Budget coming up with more of a CIO plan of how we

integrate our new/old PDS system and our new

day-to-day management and move the organization

forward and make sure we have the right equipment.

We have sort of an unique situation in

that there's been the PBS project going on for a

few years before I got here but it looks like we

are going to wrap it up.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Ten years.

MR. WHITE: We are pushing to wrap it up

and make presentations to the Board at the July

meeting.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Are they still on

target for their June completion for Phase 4 or

whatever we are at now?

MR. WHITE: As recently as yesterday,

they indicated they are still on target and that is

why I said we want to have them present something

to the Board at the July meeting.

I think once we have that and our

day-to-day sort of management piece together, then

Page 52: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

we can really take a better look at what our CIO

needs are and what type of commitment that may

involve, that is really what I envision.

But I thought it would be helpful to make

sure we got it at least on the record and out there

so we didn't have to do two or three different

RFP's. Sort of the comprehensive skill set of

these providers that are in this space to see what

they can do and help us out.

My goal today is to help us get to the

selection of just a day-to-day manager today and

then maybe three months from now come back with a

CIO type of additional work proposal once we know

where we are.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Very good. I just

wanted to ask about that.

MR. FLORES: Just to finish my end and

the rest of the team, really what we would like for

you to look at us is an extension of your

organization. We want to fit in within your

organization and help you set that goal and path to

get you to that future set.

We want to get you ready to not only

evolve as an entity but also evolve with technology

Page 53: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

so that it helps everybody become more efficient at

the end of day.

We are more as an extension and really

not an outside arm because we want to walk hand in

hand with you guys as you continue to grow.

MR. RIGG: Thank you, Jose. If we go to

the next page, and I am conscious of time, so I

want to make sure that we're moving through this at

the pace that you would like us to.

If we go to the next page, you can see a

quick recap of our understanding of what you're

trying to get done and then we can talk a little

bit about our approach.

When we read the RFP, we broke it down

into these top four areas. The managed IT services

which we view as kind of the net monitoring.

Monitoring basically IT infrastructure. And that

is where we have asked Wynndalco to come in and

provide those capabilities.

Cloud service and migration to Microsoft

Office 365. Wynndalco has extensive experience

there.

And then the business optimization and

Digital can bring to the table given all the work

we have done for both government and private sector

companies to help them.

We have done a tremendous amount of

website work for the State of Illinois and the City

of Chicago. You can see examples of our work.

We did do COVID-19 web pages that are out

of the cityofchicago.org site now and we built

those in a very rapid manner as the needs required.

We built those in a couple of weeks.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Let me ask you a

question. Have you had a chance to play around

with our system and kick the tires on it?

MR. RIGG: I have not.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: The website redesign, I

know I am going to second a lot of the other

trustees' concerns, but the member portal is one of

the bigger parts to this whole thing. I can't

stress enough that for our 77,000 members; it is

their fund and they should have easier access to

their membership data nowadays.

What is your thoughts on the member

portal for the members kind of implementing that

for the Fund?

MR. RIGG: I think we have worked with a

number of clients to create direct access portals

for their clients. I think it is a critical

capability and I think there are newer technologies

out there, Cloud based technologies, that kind of

ease that process. So, hopefully, you can get a

more sophisticated portal capability with less

effort.

One of the things that we are very much

invested in as a firm is what we will low code

technology. We have a very extensive relationship

with Microsoft and sales force and a few other of

the smaller players so that we think we can bring a

framework for how you build-out a direct to client

portal.

And then, obviously, the challenge with

doing portals is often the data that your members

want is getting that data extracted from your

performance management or other account system

where that data is currently housed.

So getting that data out in the right

format and available onto the portal in a

reasonable timeframe, I think that is really the

key challenge. We have done that with a lot of

Page 56: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

clients.

Especially working with a number of

wealth managers and asset managers who have multi

asset class systems. So co-mingling equity data

with fixed income data and also thinking about it

from a household prospective. You have multiple

members that are part of the same household. So a

number of those kind of reference data type

challenges to get to effective presentation of the

data.

I was a tech advisor at Bank of America

for nine years, that portal capability is very

sophisticated. A lot of back end work to get the

data together to make it effective.

MR. WHITE: Chris and Jose, just because

we have three other presenters, if you could maybe

just give us maybe one last minute recap and we

certainly appreciate you. We hate to rush you

through it but we have three other presenters.

MR. RIGG: I understand. I think the way

we looked at what you are asking for, the way we

responded in our RFP response, was basically to

divide the services into two sets.

A set of infrastructure services and we

Page 57: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

gave you a rate card for the work there and then a

set of these other more business process

application website resets we gave you a rate card

for those.

We did not give you an ongoing price. We

think that is something we would work out with you

as we understand it in more detail. You say 24 by

7 monitor but really what do you want? What kind

of response times do you need?

We think we can have that conversation

with you when you are ready as we get to a contract

to get you to an actual price for the ongoing

services and then a price for any of the project

work that you want.

We gave you rate cards for those and an

estimate to move you to Office 365 based on the

additional requests that you had.

MR. WHITE: Thanks. We have that and I

think we have emailed that to the Trustees so thank

you. We appreciate you guys. We will go ahead and

we will pull you guys off the system and we will

move to next one on.

MR. WHITE: We will move to the next one

on. Just one quick question, we want to make sure

if there is any handout or presentation that you

delivered that we make sure we share that.

Is there something you sent over or are

you going to talk through it?

MR. NIETO: I can talk through. I do

have a presentation. I wasn't sure how the meeting

was going to go today. I will just talk through my

presentation that I have on my screen if that is

okay.

MR. WHITE: If you can share it, that

would be even better.

MR. NIETO: If I am allowed to share my

screen, I will go ahead and do that now.

What I wanted to tell you about TEC

Services, I am sure you have read all the wonderful

things that we said about ourselves and they are

true.

We have been in this business for a long

time and we have been consulting and taking care of

our clients for almost 30 now. We have been doing

that awhile.

Our experience, I have only listed a few

companies here. Meadow Woods Holding, the Housing

Authority of Joliet and the Chicago Housing

Authority are probably some of our bigger ones,

bigger clients.

We like to manage our clients in a number

of different ways, depending on what it is. We use

standards, I am sure all the different entities and

IT departments and organizations you will talk to

today will have their ideas. I am sure they go

through standards as well. We use standards on how

we do things. Best practices. Very similar to how

you guys conduct your business. Using your

standards and what works and what we find and that

works the best.

We're very familiar with a lot of the

NIST Standards, the framework there, on how to

provide security for your organization. Our

experience working with -- we have got guys from

all kinds of background. Most of our guys are

prior military so they are very familiar with a lot

of the top secret networks and how to secure those.

We have a guy from the F.B.I. who is working for

us.

Our experience, our background, and what

we have done in the past really helps us out.

One of the things I want to talk about

Page 60: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

too is what the transition would look like from a

high level to you guys.

We typically take about four weeks for a

transition to become fully supported of your

environment there.

So at the start we start with planning,

meetings and doing a transition plan. During that

time, we collect login ID's that we are going to

need. What the processes are right now for

support. How you are getting support right now

because we don't want to make it hard on you guys.

We want to make it easy on you guys. So it is a

smooth transition where nobody really knows

anything but behind the scenes we are working on

different issues that you may be having.

Your backup processes. How you guys are

setup. Your IP address. All the information

there, we want to take a look at that.

Then we collect your policies and

procedures. We want to know how you guys are doing

things. What are your security procedures and any

open tickets that are out there, we want to know

about those. Any activity. Any projects. It

sounds like you are moving to Office 365. I am not

sure if you are in the middle of that or if that is

already complete. We just want to know what all

those things are.

Then we like to do an assessment. We

like to go in and take a look. See where things

are.

I know based on the information you have

provided to us there seems to be some old equipment

there and probably needs to be replacing. The way

we do that is we like to put a project plan

together. We don't like to do anything by the seat

of our pants. We like to do a plan together and

kind of determine what is the best way to move

forward with, let's say, replacing a server.

We want to do that with the least bit of

interruption to you as possible, that is why we do

a plan. We want to make sure we document our

risks. We document what our backout plan is if

things go bad. We want to know how do we backout

and make sure we are able to recover.

With all these things, we always like to

put in plans and those are the things we will be

talking about in week two. Planning, doing

assessment.

Week three we kind of get introduced to

the users about who we are, how to get help, things

of that nature.

And then if you do have a current

contractor, then the release of the contractor

would happen during week four.

That is the transition from a high level.

This I just kind of put together about how to get

support in a little flow chart of the things that

typically happen here.

There is a number of different ways

individuals can get support. Probably the easiest

way is just to send an email. Obviously, if your

email is not working you can't do that, but a phone

call.

We do have a ticketing portal as well

where people can log into our help desk ticketing

system. We do keep track of all of our tickets.

What we like to do we like to kind of

aggregate all our tickets together, figure out what

is going on and then we meet once a month with

whoever our point of contact would be there at

MEABF.

So we meet with you once a month. We go

Page 63: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

through the tickets, what we are seeing, and then

determine if there is something that we can do to

even get those tickets lower.

Obviously, if it is an old system or a

problem system, replacing it would be the way to do

that, but maybe training. Maybe if somebody is

asking Excel questions there may be some training

involved. Just a way for us to talk and see how

things are going and how we are doing.

Typically the way our support model is we

like to work with at least two individuals there.

Those individuals would be the ones that we meet

with monthly. Kind of talk about how we are doing

and those individuals would be able to see tickets.

What is open. What is closed. How long they have

been open. Just to kind of keep us on track and

make sure we're not dropping the ball anywhere.

We like to do this for a couple of

reasons. If somebody sends us a ticket for an

issue, we want to make sure somebody there is

monitoring those as well. Making sure that tickets

aren't getting forgotten or just being closed just

to get closed.

They also would authorize any work to be

Page 64: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

completed, access to the building, the network

closets, the servers, things of that nature. They

would also coordinate and authorize things like

that, that is our typical support model.

I do have here our severity level. We

have three levels; critical, normal and low.

So critical issues we typically respond

to immediately and we update continuously until the

close of that ticket.

Normal tickets, if we are providing the

onsite, it just depends on how those are. You

know. Hey, this is something we can get to

whenever you are onsite.

Then the low is just typically your next

site visit. You know. We kind of keep track of

those.

We let you determine the criticality of

the tickets. Just because somebody can't print, it

doesn't mean that is a low issue. That might be a

high issue if you are trying to get funding or

there is something going on. We don't determine

the level of the tickets, we let you do that.

MR. WHITE: I am sorry to interrupt. If

you could, I am not sure how many slides you have,

Page 65: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

but we have at least two other presenters. Maybe

just kind of move it a little through for us and

forgive us we may jump in, too, if we have

questions.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: I am jumping in right

now. This is Trustee Johnson.

You put on some of your other contracts.

Have you worked with any pension funds before?

MR. NIETO: Yes, I have. We have Myland

Financial. They just retired or I would have put

them on the list as one of our clients as well.

The gentleman just retired and moved down south to

Georgia but Myland Financial we worked with him for

the last 15 years.

We have worked with financial services as

well.

MR. WHITE: That is a financial service

company not necessarily a pension fund, right?

MR. NIETO: That is correct.

MR. WHITE: One question while we are

jumping in -- Trustee Johnson, I don't know if that

answered your question.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: It definitely did.

MR. WHITE: One of the things we wanted

Page 66: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

to make clear and to get out there on the record

for each of the presenters, when we put together

the RFP we referenced two or three different

aspects of things that we're looking for in terms

of the day-to-day management, some potential CIO

and even some web development issues.

Is your company comfortable working with

us if you only get one piece of the work?

MR. NIETO: Absolutely. Absolutely. We

do have a full background of technical engineers

here that do the web and the engineering is from A

to Z so to speak.

If we only get one piece of the work,

yes, we would be happy to work with you on whatever

piece that is.

MR. WHITE: Thank you.

MR. NIETO: Any other questions?

I will move right along here. We do have

reports that we share. I am going to go through

those pretty quickly just to kind of get an idea

when we meet monthly the things that we go through.

CPU usage for the different servers.

Disk usage. Physical memory usage. The services

that are available and then the tickets. Open,

Page 67: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

closed, critical. This doesn't show up on the

closed, it shows the different levels of the

critical tickets. Those are some of the levels in

the reporting that we would go through each month

with those two entities there.

Like I said about our help desk system,

we do take it -- it is automatically through an

email. It automatically routes and escalates based

on time and the criticality of the ticket.

Any additional questions for me?

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Yes. This is Trustee

Johnson. You seem to be very thorough on help desk

tickets and that type of service. One of the

things we are intrigued about is the member portal

for the pension fund members. We have 77,000

members. And allowing them access to some of their

information to take a little bit off of our staff,

with benefit estimates, things like that, where

they can log on and kind of look at their own

benefits. What are your thoughts on how to

implement a system like that for a municipal

pension fund?

MR. NIETO: The first thing that comes to

mind is security. We want to make sure that we let

Page 68: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

the right person in to access the right information

at the right time. This is kind of going back to

my network engineering background so we can

definitely put something together.

I like to use a two-form factor

authentication, whatever that means. There is a

number of different ways to implement something

like that.

We can do that with a front end -- I am

not sure how you do it now -- with a front end web

interface application, front end interface

application, with the two-form factor. I am sure

you are familiar with the two-form factor.

Username and password is typically the

first one and the next one is typically like a

token that you can get through your phone or a

device that is given to you. I think the phones

are probably the easiest nowadays but that would

authorize them to get access then to their

information.

Also, then you can give them a dashboard

fill, if you will, to their information and their

investments and the information they are looking

to.

Page 69: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

And then I would say maybe you could

customize their dashboard based on what it is they

want to see. You can have a default one and maybe

a way to customize it so they could see what their

interests are, what they are looking for.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Very good. Where are

you based out of?

MR. NIETO: Naperville.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Okay. Very good.

MR. NIETO: Any other questions?

MR. WHITE: Thank you, very much. At the

conclusion here, we are going to pull you out of

the system and we certainly appreciate you

responding to our proposal and we will be back in

touch with you shortly after the meeting.

MR. NIETO: Thank you and thank you for

your time.

MR. WHITE: Let's do Adam next. Adam,

are you there?

MR. RADULOVIC: I am here.

MR. WHITE: Sorry to keep you waiting.

We are going to try to move this forward a little

bit. We only have two presenters left. You are

one of the last two.

There are a couple of things that I have

interrupted folks to make clear. Instead of doing

that, I will share it with you upfront.

One of the questions that we want to have

you answer on the record, as you are aware for the

RFP we included a few different things that we're

looking to do. Certainly day-to-day management of

some of our systems but also things like our Office

365 migration, which we recognize we need to

modernize our office, and also eventually a web

proposal.

Would your firm be comfortable working

with us if you only received one aspect or one part

of our IT work?

MR. RADULOVIC: We don't have to do

either of the projects. If we are doing the

monthly service fee, we can either do none, one or

two of the projects. The only thing that we don't

do is project only work. We work with established

clients that we have a relationship with and that

we manage their IT on a monthly basis so we just

don't do project only but we don't require to do

project. It is perfectly acceptable to have

third-parties to do any of the projects you have

Page 71: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

at the max but go ahead.

MS. HANSEN: Adam, you can share your

screen, if you have a presentation. It's up to

you.

MR. RADULOVIC: This is a brief history.

I will try to hit it kind of fast.

We are currently 26 full-time employees.

I established the firm almost 11 years ago. We

have our annual party in about a week and a half.

We started the pure flat fee monthly IT

firm which is the same as we are today. It allowed

us to grow pretty rapidly over the next seven

years. The way we did it was realigning our

interest with our clients. I will talk about it a

little bit later. We did a pro bono project with

an organization to put together a technology plan.

It is really a sample of what we have done with

existing clients over our last almost 11 years.

The last four years we have seen most of

the markets adopt monthly fees in an unlimited way

to support clients. I imagine a lot of people you

talked to today have a very similar model.

Our focus really from Day 1 has been

having a separate department on how to reduce

problems from happening in the first place, which

is a much harder problem to solve.

We have it by including technology

auditors on a monthly basis to look at what is

going to be a problem in the future. They follow

controls just like a financial auditor does and

goes through a systematic review of what is

currently in place to make sure that tomorrow has

less problems than today.

In the middle of 2017, we established an

International Organization for Standard Rights of

2001 Information Security Policy.

There has been a great increase in the

focus of smaller organizations under 500 employees

by hackers have been responding accordingly. We

gained certification in order to increase our

competency.

I typically speak and increase awareness

of cyber safety. I talk to banks, insurance

companies, CEO groups, and I am still surprised how

many people don't even have some basics in place

Page 73: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

like cyber attack insurance.

Similar clients to your organization,

Illinois Ventures was actually our first client. I

won't go into too much detail. I wanted to give

this slide. It is really an abstract from the RFP.

We have 20 financial services firms that

we work with, that's how we started. I worked at

Swiss Bank prior to XL.net, that was my competency

area. I built an organization to be able to

support financial services firms.

In 2009, 2010, a lot of financial

services firms had some transitions and changeover

which we were able to help with. One of those was

Melvyn Securities, also one of our early clients.

I will save the questions for the end and

happy to answer any that you have.

As far as the diversity, you are probably

aware but technology has been a largely male white

dominated industry, which has required us to be

really very intentional around finding people that

allow us to have a diverse organization. I think

we have done that okay so far.

Our focus has been finding sources of

candidates. What we found in the past we don't

Page 74: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

have enough diverse candidates we are able to

review so internally we have had a group of really

women at XL.net that helped us identify additional

pools of candidates that are outside of the

traditional norm for IT.

Just to give you an understanding, for

every 100 white male candidates, there is one,

maybe two, women that are part of that. You really

have to be intentional about it.

Our key differentials are really two.

The first one I talked about and it is really what

formed us as a company is the reduction of IT

problems at risk. In the RFP, I included some

evidence to back that up.

The way that we did it really high level

is that auditor team that goes through controls to

identify this is what we have to do so tomorrow

there is less problems.

The second is technology enablement with

leadership alignment. I will show the example of

what we did for your organization, the draft plan

that we put together pro bono. It is really a

great way for us to show value and be introduced to

firms. We will review that in a little bit.

So here is the plan itself. This is from

work prior to the RFP we did at the beginning of

the year prior to COVID-19. Some of this might

have to be refreshed. We are really planning for a

potential Q-3 start. So to acclimate you to the

plan itself, it follows a structure, if you are

familiar with it, similar to a business operating

model called EOS Traction.

On the left-hand side, what are the goals

for the next 12 months. In this instance, ending

the end of June, 2021.

We wanted to put together a technology

committee to run those meetings. Put together a

standard based security policy. All the associate

and operating procedures, former gap analysis and

then an agreed to remediation roadmap and putting

together the client portal roadmap.

MR. WHITE: Let me interrupt for one

thing quickly for the benefit of the Trustees.

Probably about two months into the job, I

got a cold call from Adam. He just asked me if we

were looking for any IT help and I said naturally,

well, I don't know. I am new to the job. Stop by

and let's talk about it. He stopped by and this

Page 76: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

pro bono technology alignment plan that Adams is

sharing with you now is something that basically

from meeting with me pro bono and then talking to a

couple of members of our staff. He just put this

together probably like about a hour after talking

to us.

I just wanted to share that with you that

this wasn't something that we asked all of the

other presenters to do. It is not a matter of the

other presenters didn't do it. This is something

he volunteered to do probably three or four months

ago before we even got into this presentation.

I just wanted to share that with you.

MR. RADULOVIC: Thank you for

differentiating that.

This is the plan we put together then.

The reason why we did it we are seeing

organizations that are seeing some threats. Back

then this was different, but today with Covid-19

and a recession coming, hackers are targeting

small, medium organizations. There tends to be a

lower staff engagement in companies. This is what

leadership teams have to address.

There is 300 different categories of

Page 77: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

technology solutions that can assist. Each of

these segments has hundreds of different providers

that can help. It is very overwhelming and we

understand that.

That is why, as Dennis mentioned, we

start with interviewing the leadership team. We

interviewed nine members of the leadership team.

We spent 30 minutes to a hour per person, which

produced about 18 pages of raw data which is what

ultimately with the knowledge that we have in our

industry experience and the soft solutions

available allowed us to put together this plan.

Now a little review of what our process

looks like. So far really where we got to prior to

the RFP is the on boarding review where we

interviewed the leadership team. We understand

where the organization is heading and what some of

the lacking aspects of technology might be so we

can produce that one plan.

If we are selected to go forward, we then

review on the on boarding day what is expected on

both sides. There is some template documentation

that we request. We do an introduction meeting

with service staff and when that is complete we

Page 78: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

start the cycle, three month cycle, that really

continues as long as our service continues.

It is doing three monthly alignments. We

are going through and looking at problems before

they happen. It is a quarterly meeting that takes

that plan and updates it for the next quarter. And

then on an annual basis we re-interview the

leadership team to make sure we are always getting

a fresh prospective view of where you're going in

the next couple of years.

Monthly fee. I wanted to go ahead and

review this. It is part of the RFP but I want to

make it really clear and open it for questions when

we get to it.

We charge based on full-time equivalent

employees. In your instance, we are calculating it

based on 38 full-time employees. We multiply that

by 185. It is an all inclusive service for

everything except special projects.

I wanted to call out specifically the

included parts. I know in the RFP there are some

questions in there.

Our virtual CIO services or our

technology executives that really becomes part of

Page 79: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

the leadership team is included in this service as

is the 24/7 unlimited three live shifts that

support that. Regardless of when somebody has

either a question or something they need, we are

always available. Again this is born from us

having to focus initially on financial services.

Melvyn Securities was a great example.

They would trade at one or two a.m. We had to make

sure if there was an issue we were able to support

them.

We also include different nuts and bolts

of the IT tools that are needed. Like antivirus,

antispam security training and assessment because

we look at that as a requirement. Backup.

Disaster recovery. Monitoring software. Even

constant filtering for remote working folks.

What is not included, thank you for

bringing it up in the beginning, is the two

projects that you have coming up.

There is some remaining work to be done

for the migration to Office 365. So that would be

a subset of a potential project that we could do or

we are happy for a third party to do it. And then

the consultation and the website redesign.

In the past what we have really done is

manage the process of helping select the right

digital agency, a software development firm, less

involvement day-to-day.

If we are involved in the day-to-day, of

course, depending on the need, that is a special

project.

Again just to kind of review what I

started with in the beginning and then we can jump

into questions.

Our two key differentiators, what we can

do for the organization, is reduce problems by 80

percent and help align the plans so it matches

where your organization is trying to go.

Hopefully, I went through fast enough.

Your ears are probably tired by now with everyone.

I wanted to open up to questions you might have.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Trustee Johnson here.

Can you go back to the presentation on your meeting

with our staff?

You're a little different. You come in

and see the system and now looking at the issues

left. I notice a common denominator. The more

involvement I have with IT the more frustrated.

Page 81: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

When I ask from something from IT, they don't get a

response. Our IT team has us in a choke hold.

Seeing our system a little bit, what are

your thoughts on our current system as it is now

just from an IT standpoint?

MR. RADULOVIC: It is really easy for

someone that is in IT and judge the previous and

say they did everything wrong. I really don't

think that is the case. I think there is a couple

of pieces that need to be fixed.

What it really felt like is that IT was

put in a place to control all IT decisions, which

instead it needs a technology committee with

representation from every department that pushes it

forward. Technology needs to facilitate that, not

choke hold.

A lot of what I heard from the people I

interviewed was a feeling that it stopped. Once

things go to IT, IT's job is to really stop

progress and we need to do the opposite.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Now what is your other

public agencies that you have worked with for IT?

MR. RADULOVIC: Public agencies like

Illinois Ventures, Melvyn Securities. I don't know

Page 82: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

if I hit it. I didn't mention that Benevolent just

got purchased by Fedcap Group.

Most of the organizations we work with

tend to be on the smaller side. So somewhere

between 20 to 80 employees and less visible.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: No government agencies?

It is all like private sector?

MR. RADULOVIC: Correct.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: What is your thoughts

on portal; one thing I ask everybody. 77,000

members to get their information. Take some of the

weight off of our counselors. How do you see an

employee portal coming along?

MR. RADULOVIC: So when we did the

interviews, it was really in the middle of

development. It was unclear how much progress has

been done so far to-date.

Step one, we need to figure out what is

the current state. It appeared to be always, hey,

it's almost done. It is almost done.

We have to evaluate if there is anything

there that we can salvage to move forward. After

that, and maybe even in parallel, technology needs

to define what exactly we need in the client

Page 83: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

portal.

It didn't appear like it was very clear

what the business requirements are for that client

portal to be able to do.

It is probably back to basics. One is

assessment. What is being done right now or

currently been done. And the second is to

understand where the requirements are to start

with. And our again guiding principle is you have

to make it as simple as possible for a start to get

out there to start to make progress and do an

innervated approach after that.

Did that answer it somewhat vaguely?

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: You kind of danced

right around it pretty much, but all good. I get

it.

MR. RADULOVIC: Sorry. I wish I could be

a little more direct. It is as ambiguous as it is

for me right now.

MR. WHITE: Any other Trustees have

questions?

Adam, thank you for joining on. I hope

we make a decision today but either way we will

back in touch with you shortly.

MR. RADULOVIC: Thanks for the chance to

MR. WHITE: We are going to remove you

from the Zoom now in fairness to the other

presenters.

Billy, are you there? Todd?

MR. MATTHEWS: Yes.

MR. CABRALES: Yes.

MR. WHITE: We're sorry for saving you

for last. Certainly you have been around and had

some direct experience with our facilities, we

thought it made sense to have you be the last

presenter.

Before you begin, just a couple of things

I will mention, that we shared with the other

presenters.

One, as you are aware, the RFP sort of

referenced it, we are looking to do a few different

things. One is to have day-to-day management.

Two, have an entity to serve as a CIO capacity and

then also looking at a potential web development

and sort of Microsoft 365 migration.

So we want to get on the record whether

that is something that, if you guys are selected

Page 85: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

for one aspect of our IT work, are you comfortable

doing that in full recognition or acknowledgement

that there may be another service provider that

does another part?

MR. CABRALES: That's not a problem.

MR. MATTHEWS: We work with other parties

all the time.

MR. WHITE: The other thing we wanted to

get on the record. Certainly, we have kept the

Trustees for far longer than we typically do for

our board meeting.

We will ask you to maybe have your

presentation be about ten minutes and we'll go from

there.

I know there is a couple of questions.

There is one question I am going to ask you once

you get through with your presentation.

MR. CABRALES: We can definitely try and

keep it short. We do have the existing

relationship. I don't know if we are going to have

to fully go through all our background and whatnot.

We will definitely try to keep it short. I know,

Dennis, you don't like long meetings.

MR. WHITE: Absolutely.

we can leave a lot of time for questions.

Just to make sure everybody understands

the proposal and if they have any questions on our

experience.

MR. WHITE: Go ahead.

MR. MATTHEWS: A little bit about CMD.

We formed four years ago after we had followed

other managed service providers that really took

advantage of their clients and we're all about

providing service as money makers.

CMD was formed with the intent to make

our proposals and our services very transparent to

our client. There aren't any hidden fees or

anything that we're trying to cover up from you

guys.

Our mission statement basically speaks

for itself. We are all about making our clients

happy through honest and fair solutions.

All throughout our proposal to you, you

will see everything is laid out in black and white.

There aren't anything that we are going to come

back and say, oh, yeah, that part of the service

isn't actually covered so we are going to need more

money from you. It is all covered for the solution

that we provided for you.

As for myself, I am Todd Matthews. I

don't think I have met most of you guys so it is a

pleasure to meet you this morning.

I come from a background of 20 years of

consulting experience. Among my certifications, I

am a Microsoft Solutions Engineer, with my PMP,

Project Management Professional, certification. I

also have experience with Digium Switchvox, which

makes me very comfortable wearing your apron.

MR. CABRALES: I am Billy. I think I met

most of you before. I actually have 20 years

experience. I also have my Microsoft Certified

Solutions Engineer. I do have my Securities Plus

certification.

I am the one that generally sets up

clients and sets up all of the local infrastructure

as well.

We do have David Donnelli. He is a GIAC

Certified Forensic Analyst. He is a certified

Ethical Hacker. He has tons of certification. I

can just kind of list them off.

He actually is a subject matter expert on

information and security. One of the things that

we do find in your environment is that you have to

deal with a lot of very sensitive information from

everybody. You deal with Social Security numbers.

You deal with people's date of birth, addresses and

everything. Security is a must. A breech would be

catastrophic, just to the sensitivity of the

information that you house in your systems.

So in terms of -- Donna, do you want to

have us present and go through some of this?

MS. HANSEN: You can do it. If you would

like control, you can share your screen.

MR. CABRALES: I know some of the

Trustees they may not be able to see. We will try

to also do everything verbally as well.

MR. MATTHEWS: So part of our offering is

the virtual CIO. For those that aren't familiar

with that term, it's basically the over structure

management of IT with the organization. That

includes business review, those are documentation

policies and procedures, state quarter reviews and

long-term IT strategy review.

All of that ties into what we do for all

of our clients where we take a holistic approach to

your environment. We are not just here to support

your end users. We want to make sure your end

users are able to do their jobs in a fashion that

is both timely and secure.

The timely part of that, if you take an

idea of how much an average person costs per hour,

what they do just costs time and money.

So we really want to make sure that we

listen to the business leaders. We listen to the

business managers and we present solutions that

take into consideration some of those pain points

that they are having so we can remediate them so

they are able to do their job more effectively.

We make sure that we go through user

experience reviews, that is to make sure that your

internal staff is satisfied with everything that

they do from an IT standpoint.

Make sure they are happy with the service

desk. Make sure they are happy with the phone

system. Make sure that they are happy with all

their aspects of IT.

We also help on the back end with doing

software documentation, license review, helping you

work with the vendors to make sure you are getting

the best price for what you are looking for and

that the solution is made to be what you really

want it to be.

We plan on meeting with the business

stakeholders on a biweekly basis so we can get some

of those reviews and feedback from management so we

really know what exactly is happening on the back

end.

If there is a big audit coming up, we can

make sure that systems aren't being patched in the

middle of that. Stuff like that.

Also part of that is meeting with you all

and review. Whether that is a quarter review or

annual review just so you know what exactly is

happening within the IT organization.

We also help with the IT Budget and going

through any of the projects that you have coming

up. Not necessarily just the ones that we control

but also, for instance, PDS. Getting involved and

making sure that those projects are going well and

that we have eyes on what exactly is happening in

your environment.

The final one is going through NIST

documentation. This helps prepares you for any

kind of security compliance or audits that you

might have coming up.

MR. CABRALES: I know you have been

listening to some of this all day, all morning.

What makes CMD different?

We already have had a 11-year

relationship with MEABF. Yes, CMD has only been

around for four years, but we have actually been

working with MEABF, between Todd and myself, for

about 11 years now. We are familiar with the

staff. We do have your best interests at heart.

So we actually do things like we have

daily calls just to make sure we get all the

day-to-day issues taken care of effectively.

We did go ahead and set up a ticketing

system to be able to get tickets that come in and

keeping track as well as keeping track of all of

the issues to make sure that if there is a

recurring issue we can actually get to the root

cause of it to prevent it from having to keep

coming up over and over again.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Sorry to jump in. You

mentioned something that jogs my memory. You have

a 11-year relationship with our Fund. Do you ever

remember coming in and talking to the Trustees,

giving a presentation or anything? How long ago

did you do that?

MR. CABRALES: No, actually John kept us

pretty sheltered. It wasn't until like last year,

I think it was last year, that Stacey kept hearing

my name and she kept saying who is this Billy guy?

And then actually that is when we started working

with Stacey and then Dennis.

So, no, we were never actually asked to

present to the Board. When you did do the risk

assessment, I did come in with LaSalle and speak to

the Board at that point because actually at that

point Stacey -- I had already been in communication

with Stacey and we got some exposure with the team.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: I am just trying to

wrap my head around this. I have been a Trustee

now for roughly four years-ish give or take a year

and recently found out about you guys. The setup

and everything. PBS system in ten years in the

making. I think the Hoover Dam was built in less

time.

What are your thoughts on that, how far

that has comes along and what is your overall kind

Page 93: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

of 30,000 foot view on that?

MR. CABRALES: So PBS is actually an

ancient system per se in terms of technology. The

way it is setup it really should be web based. We

did actually respond to the RFP for replacement of

PBS. I know it got put on the back burner for a

little while.

But, yes, so PBS it took way too long to

even complete. I don't think it is fully completed

now. I know you recently did make some strides in

automating some of the processes and I will give

credit to Dennis on that for spearheading that and

making sure that PBS did at least complete some of

the functionality that they did promise. That is

like ten -- I think it is over ten years now in the

making. But, yes, it is kind of ridiculous, to be

honest. Personal opinion.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: What is your thoughts

on how an employee portal would play in with PBS

web base system or how do you see that being done

in the easiest, quickest way possible?

MR. CABRALES: So we actually have access

to the PBS code just because MEABF owns that code.

We had the developers review the code to be able to

Page 94: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

do that.

Now the thing is with PBS, the main issue

is the way everything is setup. It is a little bit

convoluted. It is not already a web base so we do

want to interface with it and we do want to be able

to talk to the data base. We would have to be able

to talk to that database.

There are some inherent risks with that

because the database is housed internally. That

website would have to be extremely secure just

because it is talking to the internal servers. We

would have to set it up in a way with security in

mind.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: That is kind of my

understanding, too, as well, is how things are

setup in the sense that the PBS in its current

system possibly couldn't interface with an employee

portal and then you get back into blowing up the

PBS system all over again and then you get into

fatigue on our employees who just learned a new

system. It is finally done ten years later and

then it is now we are blowing it up again and we

have to put a new system in place. So how would

you address that?

MR. CABRALES: So when we did our

proposal for the response for the RFP, what we were

actually going to do because MEABF owns the code,

we were actually going to practically turn it into

a web base and put all the stuff in the same fields

for the actual application.

So it is not like they have to learn a

whole new application because it is now just web

based, that is mainly the difference.

So we were going to take a lot of the

existing code and that is probably why our proposal

was probably a bit less than most of the other

proposals because we're not reinventing the wheel.

We don't want the users to have that

fatigue of I have to learn a new system. Learning

a new system on the fly or while they are trying to

work is so frustrating for the users.

MR. MATTHEWS: We want to take into

consideration the end users pain points and make

them better. Part of that discovery of how do we

transition an application like PBS into a website

and there would be a lot of talks with end users.

What they don't like about it. What do they like

about it. How are we going to be able to

Page 96: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

accomplish making sure that those pain points are

addressed in the website.

MR. CABRALES: For example, right now the

users aren't fully using PBS. There are some

access data bases that have been created. Such as

the call center application that they are actually

using when PBS already has a call center

application.

The problem that we have been seeing is

that these databases almost daily kick everybody

off the system, fix something with it and go ahead

and get everybody back in, which is very, very

counterproductive for the users.

One of things we did notice in the daily

calls and the tickets that have been coming in is

that this is a huge pain point.

I did have them work on putting the

databases into a more reliable platform. We did

try to give them a deadline until the end of June

so this can actually be a bit more stable. But

that kind of goes with the whole thing with PBS

where, yes, you are using PBS, but you are not

fully using PBS you are using an in-house system.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: One more question.

Page 97: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

Walk me back 11 years ago. How did you get the

relationship with MEABF? How did you get the

contract?

MR. CABRALES: Todd and I worked with an

IT consulting firm and that company actually got

MEABF. So Todd and I worked on the account. We

worked exclusively on the account for 11 years. I

actually took over from Todd and then we have been

working exclusively with your staff for about the

past 11 years.

When we left that company, MEABF actually

followed us because assigning a new tech, they

would have to learn everything from scratch. Like

I mentioned, there is that learning curve. They

have to learn the system from scratch. They have

to start learning all the business processes and

just kind of start all over. Which John at that

point actually just to decided, you know what,

let's stick with CMD because the techs that have

been working on the account, which had been David,

myself and Todd, are already familiar with

everything, that is kind of how we came about.

CMD was established four years ago but we

do have that 11 year relationship.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Okay. Thank you.

MR. CABRALES: I will continue on.

Whenever anything comes up, we do make a

change almost immediately and we do reach out to

Dennis and Stacey just to make sure, hey, this is

the change that we are planning to implement for

these specific reasons. Whether it be security or

just to improve the business process. We do help.

So, for example, Dennis recently reached

out and said we want to be able to do an eNotary so

I quickly went out and found DocuSign, which is

currently still too early. I think we barely got

some quotes. Something that is a work in progress.

We're very security centric, especially

with the type of information you have. So with

that, we have products that are industry leading.

Such as like Cisco Umbrella that helps prevent

against ransomware. We use DATO, which takes

backups every hour and pushes those backups

everyday to the Cloud to make sure we can actually

recover. In the event that somehow it gets through

all of our security, you get hit by ransomware, you

can actually recover very, very quickly and not

lose more than an hours work of data.

With that, we also have AlienVault, which

you will see on the proposal. AlienVault is a

security information event management system.

What does that does is gives us a single

pane of glass. AlienVault gives us like asset

discovery so we can see what and who is connected

to the network at all times. It does vulnerability

assessments. What it does is it goes onto the

servers, onto the computers, and says, hey, these

are the vulnerabilities and then here is what you

can do to patch them just because any vulnerability

could be a potential issue.

It does have intrusion determination.

There's been a few minor incidences before we moved

the email flow to Office 365 recently that some

malware had gotten through. It detected it,

notified us and we were able to make sure that

nothing came of it.

It does behavioral monitoring. For

example, if all of a sudden an administrative

account is accessing something it doesn't normally

access, then we would get notified of that as well.

We also do compliance reporting, which is

actually really nice. So with that, we do get that

Page 100: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

visibility.

In terms of Office 365, we will get that

visibility in Office 365. A lot of times what

happens is an account gets logged into from like

Egypt. It happened recently to one of our clients

and then they didn't notice it until some

suspicious emails got sent out to the users.

This will actually notify us immediately

if there is any suspicious activity, which is how

it ties into all of the platforms.

We specifically chose the platforms that

we did because they all communicate with each other

and provide us with a birds eye view of the network

security.

With that, some of our accomplishments.

We actually work with the Laborers group, LABF.

They actually brought us on because they were

having issues with slowness of the network and all

sorts of issues. We were able to find and fix

that.

Right now, especially because of this

whole COVID-19 stuff, we're in talks with Eric

right now to move their whole infrastructure, all

of their servers, up into the Azure Cloud. This

Page 101: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

will prevent the reliance of hardware power.

Some of the other accomplishments of the

companies your size is we have a company called

Housing Headquarters. They work with a lot of

insurance companies. We actually brought them up

to the standards of like Allstate, State Farm, in

terms of the security just because as State Farm

and Allstate send their client information over

they need to make sure that information is secure.

So whenever they do the questionnaires,

it's just brutal like the amount of -- they are so

stringent in terms of security standards for a good

reason. We did go ahead and bring them up to

speed.

MR. WHITE: Billy and Todd, just to move

us along, one thing that might be helpful if you

share with the Trustees, we included in the RFP

sort of a migration of Office 365. Could you just

share with the Trustees, based on your familiarity

with our system, why that is something that we need

to do sooner rather than later?

MR. CABRALES: Absolutely. Right now you

are on a change 2010 and the server is on the

server 2008. So the server -- I am not going to

Page 102: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

get too technical into this.

The server is already in the end of

support. Meaning that there are no more security

updates that are coming up. It is no longer being

patched, unfortunately. So any vulnerabilities

that get released after this, after I think January

14th of this year, they no longer are going to be

patched.

Right now your email server is almost a

sitting duck, unfortunately. And so we actually

already started some of the process to go to Office

365. The antispam compliance, for example,

actually already it was coming into play. We went

ahead and moved the email to Office 365 in

anticipation for the move. And we already started

the process in terms of preparing the environment

for this migration as well. We are pretty much

ready to make the move, but it is actually very,

very important just because of security.

We need to make sure that the email

server, because it is available to the public it is

a public basing server, it is on the local

environment. We need to make sure that we don't

have any back doors open to the public. It is very

Page 103: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

important.

MR. MATTHEWS: It also gives us the

ability to add a bit more advance security

features. There is a human response especially

because people can access your email servers from

outside of the office. On the inside, things that

happen on the public side, we need to make sure we

can protect those systems.

MR. WHITE: Thank you for sharing that.

I wanted to sort of highlight that for the Trustees

why the Office 365 migration was important and

something that we probably need to act on sooner

rather than later and why we solicited proposals as

part of the RFP to get that done.

I guess the key takeaway is our old

servers for 2008 are no longer going to be

supported by Microsoft anymore.

MR. CABRALES: It also gives you features

such as email encryption. If you do have to email

somebody any type of sensitive information, you can

actually email that and make sure that it is a

secure format. Then they can actually competently

send information back so that information doesn't

get stolen in transit.

MR. WHITE: Thank you for participating

in our RFP. Certainly, we appreciate the work you

have done for us, especially stepping in once the

COVID crisis hit and we needed to move things sort

of offline or I should say remotely as quickly as

possible. We certainly appreciate your assistance.

MR. CABRALES: No problem. That actually

did bring its own set of challenges, but we did get

through it in getting the staff working remotely

and whatnot.

MR. MATTHEWS: We appreciate all the time

you have spent. We value our relationship with

MEABF and you have been great to work with and we'd

love to continue working with you.

MR. WHITE: Thank you. We probably will

go ahead and disconnect you from the meeting.

Certainly as a member of the public, you're welcome

to stay on if you like, but you are the last

presenters.

MR. CABRALES: I don't know if this

matters. By the way, I know we have been asked in

the past, but we did actually recently make the

change that we are minority owned. Todd and I are

partners but the company is now officially minority

owned. I don't know if it matters. I just thought

I'd let you know.

MR. WHITE: Thank you. We have your

diversity info that you submitted as part of the

RFP. I think we emailed that spreadsheet to all of

the Trustees. I think it is sheet four out of the

spreadsheet. Thank you.

MR. CABRALES: Thank you.

MR. MATTHEWS: Thank you.

MR. WHITE: I would suspect at some point

we would have to go into closed session to discuss

which one we want to go with. Maybe when we get to

the Legal agenda item, maybe we will have a

combined motion and go in to discuss legal updates

and to discuss the IT proposal.

MS. BOECKMAN: There is no provision in

the Open Meetings Act that allows you to go into

closed session to discuss this type of contract.

The Open Meetings Act only allows you to

go and discuss investment contracts. Because it

falls outside of that, any discussion about the

presentations and the potential selection by the

Board has to be done in open session.

MR. WHITE: Okay. With that in mind, if

we discuss it in open session, I forwarded the

spreadsheet to all of the Trustees which contains

staff's review of the proposals. Certainly, the

first sheet just digs into sort of the management

services, the second sheet CIO, the third web

proposal and then the fourth provides the diversity

information.

We will move to the audit and the

actuaries and make sure you have the right

spreadsheet before we proceed to discussion on

that. I don't want to handicap you without having

the numbers.

We apologize. We thought we sent the

correct spreadsheet but we must not have.

MEMBER SONI: I have a hard stop at 12 so

I want to make sure of the timing.

MR. WHITE: Okay. We will quickly jump

to the auditors really quick. Hopefully, they will

be quick.

MS. DUNN: We will be.

This is Jackie Dunn. I am with Andy

Hein. We are with Calibre. We are auditors. We

were selected back in January. We thank you very

much for your confidence in picking us as one of

your service providers and we look forward to

working with you.

We do want to thank Dennis White and

Sandra Shelby very much for working with us through

this transition, which was complicated by the

shelter in place and teleworking conditions, but we

appreciate all of that.

We want to also remind you this is as of

December 31, 2019 so pre-COVID so any changes due

to market conditions or other aspects due to COVID

are not reflected in these. So this is just a

snapshot back in time as of December 31st.

I am going to turn it over to Andy.

Please feel free to stop us and ask questions or

redirect us if there is something that you

specifically want us to cover. We will just go

very briefly through the information.

MR. HEIN: So I will make this brief. If

we could just maybe flip two pages into the report,

right here is where we have our report. So this

report is an unmodified report. It is the highest

Page 108: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

level assurance we can give the Fund. It is also

known as a clean audit report. So it is all good

news here as far as the report itself.

Starting on Page 4 is Management

Discussion and Analysis. This goes through Page 12

and it's just a good summary of the activity, kind

of a high level overview, of all the information

contained in this document, which is in excess of

50 pages long which we will not be going through

every page I assure you.

Then if we could go to Page 13. So Page

13 here is your Statement of Fiduciary Net

Position. So you can see it is a snapshot picture

in time where the Fund stood at December 31, 2019

comparative numbers with 2018.

Not a whole lot to point out here. Just

a few things, other than obviously the main assets

of the fund are your investments and you can see

those detailed there. Underneath the Investment

section, in the middle of the page, a new category,

Infrastructure, that is a new category investment

that you got into in 2019.

Other than your investments, the only

real significant other asset is under Receivables

Page 109: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

and that is the contribution receivable from the

City, that has increased obviously from 2018 which

is expected. Those contributions increase each

year based on the ramp up schedule.

So that brings your total assets, kind of

three-quarters of the page down, to 4 billion 243

million.

Right below that are your liabilities.

Nothing out of the ordinary there or unexpected.

162 million there.

So the bottom line, at the bottom of this

page, you can see the net position of the plan just

under 4.1 billion. Compared to December 31, 2018

when it was 3.9 billion. Overall it is an increase

of 166.4 million dollars for the year.

So the next page here is your Statement

of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position. This shows

how we got the 166.4 million.

Additions, obviously, contributions both

from the City of Chicago and from members totalled

567 million dollars compared to 487 million, almost

488 million, in 2018. That increase is about 80

million dollars year over year and that is really

driven from the ramp up of the contributions from

Page 110: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

the City.

Right below that is your investment

income and we break that down into the various

categories noted there, less any investment

expenses to arrive at net investment income.

For 2019, 560 million of income.

Unfortunately, 2018 was 206 million in lost. For

2019 roughly about 16.5, 16.6 percent rate of

return. Well above the 7 percent assumption that

is used by the actuaries.

Below that, Security Lending Activities.

You can see detailed the income, rebates and bank

fees to arrive at net there and then below that you

can see deductions. Benefit payments are obviously

the main deduction here and annuity payments being

the most significant of those benefit payments.

914.6 million. Increased about 36 million. Year

over year 4.1 percent. So the counts were

relatively stable so that is really reflecting the

3 percent increase that the benefits get.

Below that are disability benefits and

then below that post-employment healthcare

subsidies so this is new for 2019. That number

there is 2 million 700 thousand so that represents

Page 111: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

the subsidies that were due for 2017, '18 and '19.

This was instituted this year. Going

forward we'll see that number. We would expect

that to not be as large as it is here in 2019.

Below that are refunds of member

contributions. Pretty consistent year over year

and your administrative expenses also relatively

consistent. Only about a 1 and a half percent

increase in your admin expenses there.

Taking into account your deductions

again, your net change for the year 166.4 million,

to bring your end to year net position to just

under 4.1 billion for the year.

Then following that, on Page 15, are the

notes. We will not go through all those. I wanted

to touch on a few. If you could flip to Page 16,

it is the next page down. At the bottom of the

page, you can see there is a section in bold

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements.

Due to everything going on in the world,

with COVID and everything, the GASB delayed

implementation of a lot of the pronouncements.

Some of which were supposed to go into place this

year. They have been delayed for a year. You can

Page 112: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

see that first one goes into place next year and

then the one below that is getting pushed back even

further.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Can you give me a very

quick analysis of what these GASB changes are? It

seems like they change every year.

MR. HEIN: The first one there fiduciary

activities. Probably just in its simplest form,

it's more of a cosmetic update. It might change

some of the wording we use in the Financial

Statements and so forth there.

We don't anticipate any significant

impact to the plan for this. It is more of a

cosmetic thing.

The one right below that, that is the

lease standard. That changes the way that

organizations that lease office space, for example,

how they show it on their balance sheet and on

their income statements so that one is going to

have some changes to it. However, given the size

of your organization probably not going to be a

material change to your statements either we don't

anticipate. Again, it's going to be a cosmetic

change.

We will work with the Fund office there

to make those changes when it becomes effective.

We really don't expect really a significant effect

to your plan or the assets or anything like that.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Thank you, very much.

MR. HEIN: No problem.

One other thing I wanted to point out, if

we could go to Page 39 of the statement. As we are

scrolling, you are seeing all the various notes. A

lot of this information is investment related. A

lot of it is related to your pension fund

information we are taking from the actuarial

valuation, which is going to be presented after our

report here as well.

I just wanted to touch on this page. You

can see under B, Other Post-Employment Benefit

plan, OPEB. This is where we discuss this

healthcare subsidy of $25 a month. We will talk a

little bit about it and then there is some

disclosures that are very similar to the pension

disclosures that are after that here in this note.

This is a new change to your statements

because this came back into effect here and was

implemented this year. Just wanted to point that

Page 114: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

out, that is a change from other years Financial

Statements.

And then it is not really necessary to

scroll all the way. I just want to point out a few

things.

At the back of these Financial

Statements, there are required supplementary

information. So these are schedules we have to put

into the Financial Statements and then there is

also just supplementary information that is there

as well that traditionally you have always put in

there and that is a discussion of the Fund to

include that.

The required supplementary information

that you see there. Here is the OPEB one that is

on the screen so this is new supplementary

information as it relates to the OPEB.

This is information we are taking from

the annual valuation that the actuary is going to

go over here after our report.

A lot of the information in the required

supplementary section is based on to show ten years

worth of information, but it is built on -- it

started back in 2014 so we haven't quite reached

Page 115: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

that yet.

As it relates to the OPEB disclosures you

are seeing on the screen, this is the first year

now so we will build on this next year. You will

have two years so we can present you ten years

worth of information. These schedules are going to

grow as the years go.

I know that was relatively quick. I

don't know if anyone has any specific questions

that you would like to ask.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: How have you found it

to work with our staff? Cooperative? Everything

is good? Information is flowing smoothly? How has

it been going?

MR. HEIN: I would say doing our job in

this environment right now is difficult for our

existing clients. Taking on a new job, obviously,

there's a lot of getting up to speed as new

auditors we needed to do and the staff made it

incredibly easy.

Our requests were answered timely. They

were accessible at all times. We really have to

commend them on that. I am sure it was a difficult

situation for them dealing with us via emails and

Page 116: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

phone calls and all of that stuff since we weren't

able to be onsite and sit and talk face-to-face

with people. But I think at least from our

prospective, now I guess you would have to ask

staff's prospective on dealing with us, but from

our prospective it was a very, very good

experience.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Glad to hear it.

MR. HEIN: We did have another thing. I

don't know if you have the other handout. There is

one other handout that was included with the

information. It is Required Audit Communications.

Do you have that?

So all this is it's just maybe a

four-page letter here. This is just kind of a

boiler plate letter. It is something that we are

required to communicate with governments when we do

the audit. It is kind of a supplement to the audit

report itself. There isn't really anything in

here. This is pretty standard language.

It is just meant to kind of highlight if

there was any changes in accounting policies. You

can see that is in the middle of the page there.

You can see a paragraph that starts "accounting

Page 117: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

estimates". We want to point out there are

estimates in these Financial Statements that are

significant. Obviously, the work done by your

actuary, these are estimates that they are putting

together with information based on assumptions. We

want to point that out.

The fund's investment and number of

alternative investments, the valuations of those

are estimates in some cases and are subjective --

those investments are audited themselves but the

timing of when that is done so there is an element

of estimation being done there as well. We want to

point that out to you.

We talk about Financial Statement

disclosures.

And then on the next page, this is where

we would state if we had difficulties with staff

doing the audit. We weren't provided information.

We had nothing like that. Any misstatements that

we had to propose or that weren't corrected or

didn't agree with correcting. We did have some

adjustments that we made. We worked with staff and

we made those adjustments. However, none of them

were material in total to the Financial Statements

Page 118: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

so that is good news as well.

And then there is also a section there if

we had a disagreement with management on how

something should be handled. Again, no such

disagreements.

It is really kind of a mutual letter but

I just wanted -- since it is included in the

packet, I thought we had better address it as well.

Unless anyone has any questions, that

would conclude our report.

MR. WHITE: Sarah, does the Board need to

vote to approve the report?

MS. BOECKMAN: Yes, sir. The historic

practice is that the Board would approve and accept

the 2019 auditor report for filing as required by

law.

Johnson.

MR. SLACK: Yes.

MS. HANSEN: Motion approved.

Next up are our actuarial auditors.

Gentlemen, can you introduce yourself?

MR. STROM: Good morning. It is almost

noon now. We will try to be brief as well.

Right now you have Matt Strom, Dan Reusz

and Jakob Nolan, your actuarial team.

We have a presentation that is being

pulled up right here. We have a full report that

has been provided to you. It is pretty lengthy.

It has some good information in there but we wanted

to hit the highlights.

We can go right to Slide 3 and talk about

the purpose of this valuation. And, again, as the

auditors mentioned, we're looking at a snapshot as

of December 31, 2019. That is where we are drawing

the line in the sand and doing the valuation of the

Fund's liabilities at that point in time and also

taking the market value of asset information and

calculating an actuarial value of assets. Which as

you know is different in that it smooths out the

peaks and values of the market volatility and for

measuring the Fund's plan status it allows for a

Page 120: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

slightly more smoother, less volatile number for

reporting the funded status.

Another thing that we do in this

valuation is we calculate an actuarially determined

contribution, which is based on the Board's funding

policy, that involves a contribution -- this is the

benchmark I guess of which to compare against what

is in statute of what the City is required to pay

in statute so the Board has a policy of what we

think the contributions should be, at least normal

costs, plus an amortization of unfunded liability,

and how does that compare to the amount that we're

getting according to the statute.

As you know, I will get into this in a

second, but the statute right now has fixed

payments that are still coming in and then in a

couple of years it's going to be the payment is

going to change to an amount that is based on a

projection. We will talk about that later.

We do some gain and loss in this. We

also calculate the Financial Statement liabilities

for pension under the GASB 67/68 and now the OPEB

under 74/75.

On four, the valuation highlights. A

message here at the top that basically says while

the required contribution is in this period of

fixed payments for the tax levy year of 2019

receivable in 2020 and then the next two '20 and

'21. Any market volatility isn't going to change

those amounts that are in statute. So there's a

little bit of risk there if there is a gold

pandemic, for example, and the market goes crazy,

those amounts aren't going to change.

So now as I said starting with the 2022

payment that we will receive in '23, that is when

we are going to rely on the projection. There is

going to be a jump up in that required amount and

we'll take a look at that in a little bit.

The market value return calculation is

with 16 percent for the year and the actuarial

value taking last years actuarial value, this years

value and backing into an implied return, that was

5.6 return which is slightly less than the assumed

return of 7 percent.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: I am sorry. Explain

that to me. The gradual recognition of the

deferred gains results in a 5.6 return. Explain

that to me.

MR. STROM: The 16 percent market value

is -- only a portion of that gain is recognized and

a lot of it is deferred for the next four years to

be recognized in the future.

In the prior years, there was other

deferred gains and losses for those years. It kind

of netted out such that taking last years actuarial

smooth value to this years, with all the portions

of prior years that have been deferred but

recognizing those during the last year, it ended up

in an applied return of 5.6 percent.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Thank you.

MR. STROM: At the back of the

presentation, there is a calculation and it is in

the appendix. We weren't planning to go over it.

There is a calculation of that actuarial. You will

see the market gains and losses and what portion of

that is recognized and which portion is deferred.

You can see, oh, yeah, that was a big loss but now

we are taking some of that this year. This gain

this year is being deferred so from an actuarial

value standpoint it will flow through over the next

four years.

On a market value basis, the funded

ratio, which is the market value assets over the

liability, that actually improved from 23.3 to 23.6

percent. Of course, on an actuarial value it has

the opposite effect, which it increased slightly

from 25 percent to 23.2.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Explain that to me

again.

MR. STROM: So the liability on each of

those calculations and the denominator is the same,

but we have different market values. And so the

market value is currently at -- when I say

currently, at the end of last year, was 4.1 billion

and the actuarial value is 4 billion or

thereabouts. So that is why you are seeing a 23.6

percent on the market and a 23.2.

Last year the actuarial value was 4.2

billion and the market was only 3.9 as you saw in

the schedules from the auditors. So the market

value went up basically by about 200 million from

last year to this year and the actuarial value went

down by about 200 million.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Okay. Thank you.

MR. STROM: The contributions that were

booked for 2020, expected to be received in 2021,

is that 499 million that is in statute and we have

calculated an actuarially determined contribution,

again this is the benchmark of about 1.17 billion

so there is a shortfall there of 668 million.

And then two other items on Slide 5 just

to mention, I think the auditors did a pretty good

job of setting up, but with the OPEB subsidy, they

mentioned that the payment for last year, which

included three years worth of payments, was about

2.7 million dollars. We calculated a liability of

those projected future payments with a group of

people that could be eligible for the subsidy and

that is about a 36 million dollar liability that is

for the OPEB.

And then, obviously, again this is a

snapshot, so anything that has happened with COVID

and the market, none of that is really factored

into this valuation. We just wanted to make that

statement because it's important to kind of go back

to 12-31-19 and look at the results from that

prospective.

Then to Slide 6, moving ahead, I will

talk about the membership here. We're showing the

active membership and the retirees and

Page 125: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

beneficiaries, the in-pay status members. There is

more actives this year than last year by about

almost 3 percent increase in actives. You are

looking at a slightly younger membership relative

to last year. .2, .3 dip in the average age and

average service respectively. The number of

retirees remained relatively constant. It is about

the same. Just a slight dip but nothing much.

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: Is that kind of

different in years past, though? We increased on

average our retirees and beneficiaries, but

actually went down last year.

MR. STROM: Yes, exactly. We are also

showing the average monthly benefit, which now that

increased by about 3.4 percent. Just the total

benefits divided by the number of people and pay

status and you come out to an average of $3,059 for

the people in the data at the end of the year.

I am going to move ahead to Slide 7 and

let Dan take cover and talk about some of the

results and then Jakob will talk about the

projections and then we will take any questions.

MR. REUSZ: On this slide, we kind of

have the overall results and compare this year to

Page 126: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

last year.

You see the total liability of the Fund

was 17.3 billion dollars compared to the 16.8

billion last year. We saw about a 487 million

dollar increase in liability from last year to this

year. That is a pretty normal trend just as more

benefits are accrued liability goes up.

Under there we can see the value of

actuarial assets. That went down 183 million

dollars from 4.2 billion to about 4 billion and

that is consistent with that 5.6 return that Matt

was describing earlier due to prior recognition of

gains and losses all being smoothed into these

assets.

When you combine those two values, you

take liability minus assets to come up with the

unfunded liability for the year. The unfunded

liability this year was 13.3 billion dollars which

was about a 670 million dollar increase from last

year when it was 12.6 billion.

At the bottom, you can see the funded

ratio. This is the actuarial value of assets

divided by liabilities so that decreases from 25

percent down to 23.2 percent during this last year.

If we flip to the next slide, this is

kind of a reconciliation of the unfunded from one

year to the next. It kind of shows what caused the

unfunded liability to go up.

So the first line you see it is set at

12.6 billion dollars. The next line is the effect

of contributions less normal cost and interest on

unfunded liability.

What that is is that is kind of what we

expected the unfunded to go up. The normal cost is

the costs accruing during the year so that is what

we expect during normal operation of the plan.

More benefits are going to be accrued. Normal cost

is kind of what we expect liability to go up for

that and then we add on interest on the unfunded

liability.

In essence, the unfunded liability is

kind of like a loan to the plan. You have to pay

interest on that. When you add those two together,

that is kind of what the expected increase in

liability is going to be. Contributions coming

into the plan offset that but the costs outweigh

the contributions. The costs are about 562 million

more than the contributions coming in. Showing

Page 128: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

that the contributions weren't covering the costs

for the year.

Based on that, we expected the unfunded

liability to go about 13.2 billion. That was all

assuming that all of our assumptions were perfectly

met during the year, which we know is not the case.

The next two line items describe what

costs were. The experience that happened. First

one was investments. We saw a 53 million dollar

loss in investment during the year and that is a

result of the 5.6 percent return compared to our

assumed 7 so we lost 53 million on assets.

The next line is demographics. That is

just we have the assumptions about retirement and

mortality each year but experience doesn't happen

exactly as we project. So we got about a 28

million dollar loss for the year, that mainly came

from two sources. That came from the salary

increases during the year being more than expected

so salaries were higher, which means benefits were

accrued at a higher rate then expected.

In addition to that, we also saw more

retirements at an earlier age than expected. So

since they retired earlier than we expected,

Page 129: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

benefits are being paid sooner with a slight

increase in liability.

The last change was the change in plan

provisions and that was just the addition now with

the healthcare subsidy.

When you add all these factors up

together, we get to the unfunded liability of 13.3

billion. As you can see from the chart, the

majority of that increase is coming from

contributions at this point not covering the cost

of the plan.

If you go to the next slide a lot of this

is represented in graphical form. The red line

with the squares is the liability. You can see

that has kind of a continuing trend of increasing

from one year to the next and that is expected just

as time goes on. People accrue more benefits.

More actives are hired to the plan. Liability

going up is a very, very normal trend in all

pension plans.

If you look at the blue line at the

bottom with the diamonds, that is the value of

assets. You can see there that has kind of been

trending downwards. That is just again the cost of

Page 130: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

the plan is more than the contributions coming in.

We have been seeing a decline in the assets.

As liabilities go up and assets go down,

the unfunded is increasing which leads to a

decrease in the funded percentage, which is what we

see here in the green line. We can see that over

the last ten years the funded percentage has been

steadily declining as a result of how the liability

in assets are behaving.

TRUSTEE SONI: I have one question

regarding the calculation of the actuarial value of

assets. Is there a one year lag in that

calculation?

MR. REUSZ: No. This is a value as of

December 31, 2019.

TRUSTEE SONI: When I see the Financials,

I am on the actuarial part, are you counting the

fact of all of the gains that occurred in

investments for that year itself when you have this

investment number?

MR. REUSZ: Yes. During the actual 2019

plan year, we calculate about a 16 percent market

return so there's a good market gain that year. We

do incorporate that but we recognize it over five

Page 131: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

years so only about 20 percent of that gain is

included.

TRUSTEE SONI: Okay.

MR. REUSZ: It is losses from the past

years outweigh that gain for the single year.

TRUSTEE SONI: Understood. I didn't

realize the amortization period was five years.

MR. REUSZ: Yes. You only see about 20

percent of the gain rate now.

TRUSTEE SONI: Thank you.

MR. REUSZ: If you flip to the next page,

this is a graph that kind of shows contributions

were spent in refunds. This is kind of a snapshot

of the cash flow. The red line represents benefit

payments, refunds and admin expenses, that is

pretty much all the money going out of the fund.

The blue line is the money coming in. That is the

combination of both employer and employee

contributions. So total contributions coming into

the plan.

You can see here that the red line is

higher than the blue one, meaning that more money

is going out than is coming in.

We can see that the blue line is starting

Page 132: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

to go up. It is starting to catch up. That is

just the fact that we now have the fixed ramped

contributions starting to come in and then after we

get through the ramp they will start being

actuarial determined contribution or at least the

funding mechanism.

The gap is closing but there is still a

pretty substantial gap. Right now this last year

there was about a 394.5 million dollar gap between

outflows and inflows. Which means that in order to

avoid the assets going down, that gap has to be

made up by investment return. That gap right now

currently represents about 9.7 percent of the

market value of assets.

MR. WHITE: One quick question. In terms

of that actuarially required funding number is that

based on 100 percent funding or 90 percent funding

which is what the legislation will require going

forward?

MR. REUSZ: So the contribution that is

going to be going into the plan is based on the

plans funding policy which is attaining 90 percent

funded by 2059.

MR. WHITE: I wanted to make sure it was

Page 133: 1 2 MEETING NO. 2020-06 7 8 9 10 the audio conference meeting … · 2020. 9. 1. · MS. HANSEN: Trustee Soni. TRUSTEE SONI: Present. MS. HANSEN: We have a quorum. TRUSTEE SONI: A

not 100 percent that you were using since we're not

on that right now.

MR. STROM: The plan is to pay 100

percent. Amortize it fully. The statutory, which

is the number we will be going in, is based on the

90 percent target out in the future.

MR. WHITE: This number is based on 100

percent. It actually is higher than once we -- if

we were getting the 90 percent that was required

statutorily, this number is higher than what we

would be actually looking for.

MR. STROM: Yes. We have that number

later. The one that I think comes in 2023 based on

2022's tax levy year. Along with that amount and

the member contributions, I think you're going to

see this graft on 10, you are going to see a shift

where the money -- you're going to be a cash

positive situation once that money starts coming

in, that is going to be slightly higher than all

the outflows.

MR. WHITE: Okay. Got you. Thank you.

MR. REUSZ: Now I think if we flip to the

results of the projections, which I think Jakob is

going to go ahead and take over here.

TRUSTEE SONI: I do have a hard stop. I

know we have to vote on this.

MR. WHITE: We will have to defer action

until the next board meeting.

MS. BOECKMAN: Matt, do you know how much

longer you think your presentation will be?

MR. STROM: There is two slides -- I'm

sorry, Jakob. Basically, it's just showing the

projections of the funded ratio and the employers

required contribution and just the projection from

last year to this year and how they changed based

on the fact that the market value did well and

earned 16 percent.

So now the funded ratio is going to be

incrementally higher and the required contributions

are incrementally lower because this projection

actually does reflect all that money going in after

a few years.

But that is basically the end of the

presentation from our standpoint. I think you

could vote on it now.

MR. WHITE: Any Trustees have questions

before they take action?

TRUSTEE JOHNSON: No.

off.

MS. BOECKMAN: The legal update we can do

in July. There is nothing really pressing there.

With respect to the hearing on the shift

differential issue, counsel for the participant did

reach out and ask that we continue the hearing.

It is our expectation that we would move

forward with that in July, but we need to work with

them as far as what documents they want to have be

made part of the record and that type of thing.

So we are working with them. They are

the ones that requested that continuance. Like I

said, it's our understanding that we will move

forward in July but we need to work with them to

make sure they have sufficient time to put together

their record.

privately owned and the benchmarks also?

MR. YOON: No. We have exposure in

private equity as well as traditional public

equities. If you look at our website, you will be

be able to see what the weightings are in each of

the asset classes.

If you have any further questions, feel

free to reach out to me. There's an email on our

website as well.
