BACKGROUND:

Staff has prepared a proposed CY 2022 Investment Manager Due Diligence Schedule in accordance with SBCERA’s Due Diligence Policy (the Policy). The Policy requires on-site or remote investment due diligence for all managers at least once every three (3) years.

 

The preliminary due diligence schedule for CY 2022 is attached as Exhibit A. The anticipated mode of conducting each visit is listed along with other details for each proposed meeting. However, should health directives substantially change in CY 2022, staff will review whether on-site visits remain appropriate and comply with Board policy.

 

Exhibit A also includes a list of existing exceptions for investment due diligence visits. No new exceptions are being requested at this time. For reference, Exhibit B includes a list of the due diligence meetings which have been completed in CY 2021; Exhibit C is a look-ahead to anticipated due diligence in CY 2023.
