Socially Responsible Investment Fund EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2017 PORTFOLIO RESULTS The Socially Responsible Investment Fund (SRIF) employs a diversified asset allocation consistent with its long‐term investment horizon. Although performance goals and objectives will ultimately focus on the portfolio’s long‐term investment experience, the SRIF has experienced outperformance relative to peers since its inception. Figure 1: SRIF net of fees returns as of December 31, 2017 SOCIALLY RESPONSIBLE INVESTING & GOSPEL VALUE PRIORITIES The SRIF seeks to incorporate the top SRI and gospel value priorities identified via dot voting at the 2014 Convention, and most recently reaffirmed and expanded at the 2017 Convention. These values encompass both positive investment, a proactive approach to socially responsible investing, and divestment, which is restriction‐based. The Committee recognizes that, in isolation, each investment may not address all of the SRI and gospel value priorities, but the SRIF in whole will emphasize each of these priorities. POSITIVE INVESTMENT DIVESTMENT Investors direct money toward solution‐oriented securities and make investments in activities and companies believed to have a positive social impact. Investors restrict investment in certain securities based on SRI factors, excluding those restricted securities from a portfolio.
