State Universities Retirement System of Illinois Serving Illinois Community Colleges and Universities 1901 Fox Drive Champaign, IL 61820-7333 (217) 378-8800 (217) 378-9802 (FAX) Investment Department To: Investment Committee From: Daniel L. Allen Date: October 3, 2013 Re: Investment Consultant Search Recommendation Overview At the May 2, 2013 Investment Committee meeting, the Board of Trustees authorized a search to identify qualified candidates for the role of external investment consultant. The search team for the project included SURS Trustees and Staff. Trustees McCrohon, Engstrom, Johnson, and Matthews participated in initial due diligence interviews on August 14, 15 and 22, 2013 with each of the six investment consulting firms responding to the Request for Proposal (RFP). At the September 12, 2013 Investment Committee meeting, the following three firms were identified as finalists in the search: Investment Consultant Callan Associates Hewitt EnnisKnupp NEPC Location / Servicing Office San Francisco / Chicago Chicago / Chicago Cambridge, Mass. / Chicago Trustees McCrohon, Engstrom, Johnson, and Figueroa joined Bill Mabe, Dan Allen and Doug Wesley in the on-site due diligence interviews for Hewitt EnnisKnupp ( HEK ) and Callan Associates ( Callan ) conducted in Chicago on September 17-18, 2013, respectively. In addition, Trustee McCrohon participated, along with Dan Allen and Doug Wesley, in the NEPC on-site due diligence interview conducted in Boston on September 20, 2013. Search Process The search process has been conducted consistent with legislative requirements and SURS normal practice as defined in the Investment Policy: SURS drafted a request for proposal, which was issued in May 2013. SURS posted the RFP on its website and advertised in Pensions & Investments as well as the state newspaper. The search team reviewed RFP responses based on the following evaluation criteria: o Organization / Business Model - Stability, ownership, independence o Consulting Philosophy / Strategies - Investment philosophy, expertise in wide variety of investment strategies o Investment Staffing / Depth of Resources - Depth and expertise of consulting staff, research capabilities
o Proposed SURS team - Qualification and experience of individuals on SURS team o Performance Reporting and Risk Analytics - Investment manager data collection and monitoring systems, risk management tools, performance measurement systems o Consulting fees for services requested Interviews were conducted with key personnel of all six respondents. On September 12, 2013, the Board narrowed the list of candidates to the following finalists: o Callan Associates o Hewitt EnnisKnupp o NEPC SURS staff and Trustees conducted on-site meetings with the finalist firms. Each meeting lasted approximately four hours and covered the evaluation criteria listed above. References were interviewed for each of the finalist candidates and were satisfactory. Fee proposals have been reviewed. Finalist candidates are scheduled to present to the SURS Investment Committee at the October 17, 2013 Investment Committee meeting. Expectations of the Investment Consulting Relationship Staff believes the three firms presenting on October 17 th are all capable of servicing the relationship. The areas of expertise which should be considered in identifying a premier investment consultant to partner with SURS include: Commitment of Necessary Resources to Support SURS Board and Investment Staff Ability to Provide Trustee and Staff Education and Training Willingness to Listen and Be Challenged Recommendations Regarding Strategy, Investment Policy and Asset Allocation Depth of resources in all Asset Classes, including defined contribution plans Firm Independence Expertise of the Public Pension Fund Industry Awareness of the Illinois Legislative Climate Extensive Knowledge of Minority, Female and Persons with a Disability-Owned Investment Firms Ability to Lead Manager Searches for Complex Investment Strategies Insight of the Latest Trends, Topical Issues and Access to Best Thinking Diversity of the Organization Reasonable Fee Structure Willingness to Provide Recommendations Outside of the Norm Evaluation of Candidates The following evaluation criteria have been used in the search process: Organization / Business Model Proposed SURS Team Consulting Philosophy / Strategies Performance Reporting and Analytics Staffing / Depth of Resources Fees
The search team developed a matrix with comments on each finalist to better compare the firms. The three firms were similar in the areas of Staffing / Depth of Resources and Proposed SURS Team. Each firm is similar with respect to strengths in the defined contribution marketplace, with each firm having a dedicated team of DC specialists. More significant differences emerged, however, in the other four categories. In the Organization / Business Model category, NEPC scores best due to its independence and employee ownership. Callan also is employee-owned but has the perception of potential conflicts of interest due to its business model. HEK does not score quite as well in this area due to changes in its business model over the past couple of years and its status as a wholly owned subsidiary of Aon and the remaining uncertainty created resulting from its acquisitions, first by Hewitt Associates, followed by Aon Corporation, three years ago. In the Consulting Philosophy / Strategies category, Callan appears to be more traditional and conservative in its investment approach. NEPC has a greater focus on alternative investment strategies and other newer strategies. HEK, formerly favoring more traditional, conservative strategies, appears to have migrated toward a more aggressive approach. Callan has the largest client base in private equity ($55 billion) and real estate ($62 billion) followed by HEK ($35 billion in private equity and $20 billion in real estate) and NEPC ($23 billion in private equity and $6 billion in real estate). In terms of Performance Reporting and Risk Analytics, the search team believes Callan has an advantage. Callan is the only firm to have its own proprietary manager performance database. In addition, Callan provides its clients access to its databases and performance analytics software, which provides potential efficiencies with current staff reporting. Finally, Callan and NEPC provided similar fee proposals over the five year term and were both significantly lower than the fee proposal provided by HEK. A five-year fee analysis is provided in the information following this memo. The fee analysis assumes one custodian/securities lending search, one public market and one private market search per year, two asset/liability studies (one is included, second incurs additional cost), an SMP provider search and change of one SMP investment option. Callan s fee proposal averages approximately $543,000 per year, followed by NEPC ($550,000 per year) and Hewitt EnnisKnupp (ranges from $681,500 to $743,000 per year depending on the ultimate cost of each search). Investment Committee Evaluation of Candidates The Exhibits following this memo are designed to assist the Committee in the consultant evaluation process and include: Exhibit A - Matrix comparing key information for each of the finalist candidates Exhibit B - Brief summary profile of each finalist Exhibit C - Comparison of distinguishing characteristics for each candidate Exhibit D - Five-year fee analysis Exhibit E - Blank rating sheet
Conclusion The SURS consultant search team believes the comprehensive search process conducted over the past several months has resulted in the identification of three highly qualified, experienced and well respected finalist candidates. Each of the three candidates is capable of serving as general investment consultant for a large, complex public plan such as SURS. Exhibit 3

Exhibit B Callan Associates, Inc. Organization Callan Associates, Inc. ( Callan ) is an independent, privately owned investment consulting firm. Callan was formed in 1973 when Edwin Callan and other professionals purchased the performance measurement division of Mitchum, Jones & Templeton. Callan has provided consulting services to U.S. tax-exempt clients since the firm s inception. Callan is registered as investment adviser under the federal Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The firm is headquartered in San Francisco, CA, with additional offices in Chicago, Atlanta, Denver and Florham Park, NJ. Beginning in 1989, Ed Callan began the transition of ownership to second and third generation employees. That transition was completed at the end of 2004. Currently, 71 active employees own the stock of the firm (100% employee-owned). Callan has four distinct business divisions. The Fund Sponsor Consulting Group is the primary line of business, generating 69% of Callan s annual revenue. Staffing Callan s staff consists of 171 employees, of which over 150 associates are dedicated to Fund Sponsor Consulting. Within the Fund Sponsor Consulting group, 33 general consultants are assisted by a team of 39 specialty consultants, 17 Fund Sponsor support professionals, and 26 client report services specialists. Remaining staff in the Fund Sponsor Consulting group provide information technology, database/analytic solutions, or administrative support. Consultants working with clients who have large and complex investment programs typically do not have more than eight to ten client relationships. The proposed SURS consulting team includes John Jackson, CFA, Senior Vice President, Yosangel Haddad, Vice President, and Greg Allen, President and Director of Research. John Jackson and Angel Haddad will serve as the primary consultants, while Greg Allen will serve as a resource on projects as he has in the past three years of the relationship. Clients/Assets Callan has 366 clients with assets under management of $1.8 trillion. Callan has 123 public fund clients that are collectively responsible for $1.4 trillion in assets. Callan maintains a diverse client base, which includes public, corporate, endowment, not-for-profit, and Taft-Hartley funds. The average assets of Callan s public fund clients are $12.1 billion. Philosophy Callan utilizes a custom approach to consulting. By understanding the evolution of each client s investment program and using a disciplined process, they are able to make optimal long term decisions based on their unique circumstances. Callan maintains general beliefs that underpin the firm s investment advice across all clients that would impact portfolio structure recommendations. First, they are ardent believers in diversification at the total fund level and in each asset class. Second, they believe that the investment decisions for each client should be driven by a carefully constructed longterm strategic investment plan. This plan should be reviewed regularly and take into account the unique liability structure or spending requirements of the plan; its governance structure and staffing levels; its size, and the risk tolerance and investment experience of the plan s fiduciaries. Callan recommends a formal review of asset allocation policies every three to five years, unless changes in the Plan s circumstances warrant it to occur more frequently.
