GASB Statement No. 25. This Statement establishes financial reporting standards for defined benefits

plans and for the notes to the financial statements of defined contribution plans of state and local enti-

ties.

The method for recording revenues and expenses is on an accrual basis. Revenue is taken into account

when earned, regardless of the date of the collection, and expenses are recorded when the corresponding

liabilities are incurred instead of when payment is made. Amortization of bond premiums and discounts

are over the life of the investment security and actuarial reserves are funded via the entry age normal

cost method.

ADDITIONS

Additions to the plan includes all income received into the Plan for the Fiscal Year. The Pension Plan's

sources of income include items such as contributions and investment income. Total additions for the

fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 were $15,438,586. This amount was mostly comprised of net investment

income of $15,335,097. Net investment income includes appreciation in fair value of investments, inter-

est income and dividend income less investment expenses during the fiscal year. As of June 30, 2015 the

System membership consisted of only retirees and beneficiaries.

On July 30, 2012, the City deposited $210 million from the issuance of Pension Obligation Bonds into

the System. As a result of a funding agreement entered into between the System’s Board and the City of

Oakland no additional contributions are required until July 1, 2017.

DEDUCTIONS

Total deductions to the plan in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 were $59,992,763. The primary de-

ductions are for pension payments to members and qualified beneficiaries.

RESERVES AND FUNDING

The Police and Fire Retirement System’s most recent actuarial study values the Plan as of July 1, 2014.

Details regarding this actuarial study can be found in Section 4 of this annual report.

As of July 1, 2014 the Plan was 64.6% funded with an actuarial present value of future City contribu-

tions of $230.16 million. The funded status is defined as the difference between the projected City liabil-

ity and the actuarial value of assets. In July 2012, the City contributed $210 million in Pension Obliga-

tion Bond proceeds into the System, which lowered the unfunded liability.

INVESTMENTS

The Police and Fire Retirement System Investment Policy is used as a guideline for all investment activ-

ities. The Investment Policy includes an asset allocation plan. The plan consists of five asset classes:

Large, Mid, and Small Capitalization Domestic Stocks, International Stocks and Fixed Income Instru-

ments. In addition, the Policy also allocates among the different investment management styles.

In November 2006, Oakland voters passed Measure M, which modified the City Charter to allow the

PFRS Board to invest in non-dividend paying stocks and to change the asset allocation structure from

50% equities and 50% fixed income to the Prudent Person Standard.

Total Investment Income resulted in an increase of $15,335,097 in fiscal year 2015. The actual time-

weighted annual investment return for fiscal year 2015 was 3.9%. GASB Statement No. 67 requires that

investments be reported at fair value. The appreciation (depreciation) in fair value of investments held

by PFRS is recorded as an increase (decrease) in investment income based on the valuation of invest-

ments at year-end.

The historical rates of return on the portfolios are as follows:

RECENT UPDATES

On August 27, 2014, the PFRS Board diversified their fixed income portfolio by hiring DDJ Capital

Management as their High Yield / Bank Loan Fixed Income Asset Manager.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

As management of the Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System (the System), we offer readers of the

System’s financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the

System for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. We encourage readers to consider the

information presented here in conjunction with the System’s financial statements that follow this

section. This discussion and analysis is presented in the following sections:

Organization Overview and Highlights

Financial Statement Overview

Financial Analysis: 2015 vs. 2014

Requests For Additional Information

ORGANIZATIONAL OVERVIEW AND HIGHLIGHTS

The City of Oakland City Charter established the System and provides for its funding. Accordingly, the

System is an integral part of the City of Oakland (the City) and its operations have been reported as a

Pension Trust Fund in the City’s basic financial statements. The System is a closed, single employer,

defined benefit pension plan that provides retirement, disability and survivor benefits for eligible sworn

safety employees of the City. The System serves the City’s sworn employees hired prior to July 1, 1976

who have not transferred to the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS). The

System is governed by a board of seven trustees; the Mayor or his/her designate, three Mayoral

appointees approved by the City Council, an elected active or retired member of the Police Department,

an elected active or retired member from the Fire Department, and an elected member position which

alternates between the Police Department and Fire Department membership. Trustees receive no

compensation.

The System has been funded by periodic employee and City contributions at actuarially determined

amounts sufficient to accumulate the necessary assets to pay benefits when due as specified by the City

Charter, unless the Board and the City have agreed to other funding options. In accordance with the

City Charter, active members hired after July 1, 1951, and prior to July 1, 1976, contribute a percentage

of their earned salaries based upon entry age as determined by consulting actuaries. During the years

ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the employee contribution rates were 0% and 5.47%, respectively. The

City Charter limits employee contributions to 13.00% of earned salaries. Employee contributions are

refundable with interest at 4.00% if an employee elects to withdraw from the System upon termination

with the City. There are no active participants in the Plan as of June 30, 2015.

In July 2012, the City deposited $210 million in pension obligation bond proceeds into the System and

entered into a funding agreement with the System Board, which suspended contribution until the fiscal

year beginning July 1, 2017.

In June 2012, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 67, Financial Reporting for Pension Plans – An

Amendment of GASB Statement No. 25 to improve financial reporting by state and local governmental

pension plans. The System implemented the provisions of GASB Statement No. 67 for the year ended

June 30, 2014.

As of June 30, 2015, the total pension liability of $635.6 million less the fiduciary net position of $419.3

results in a net pension liability of approximately $216.3 million. The fiduciary net position as a

percentage of the total pension liability is 66.0%.

The System membership is currently 961, which includes 668 retirees and 293 beneficiaries. The

following are the significant assumptions used to compute contribution requirements in the July 1, 2014

Actuarial Valuation Report:

Select and ultimate rates, equal to 6.54% single equivalent investment rate of return

2.75% inflation rate, US

2.85% inflation rate, Bay Area

3.25% long-term post-retirement benefit increases

City contributions are based on spreading costs as a level percentage of the City’s total uniform payroll

to July 1, 2026. The System uses the entry age normal cost method for its disclosure and reporting. The

next required City contribution is projected to be approximately $35.1 million in FY 2017/2018.

FINANCIAL STATEMENT OVERVIEW

This annual financial report consists of three parts – management’s discussion and analysis (this

section), the financial statements and required supplementary information. The financial statements

include Statements of Fiduciary Net Position; Statements of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position; and the

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements.

16

The Statements of Fiduciary Net Position and the Statements of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position

report information to assist readers in determining whether the System’s finances as a whole have

improved or deteriorated as a result of the year’s activities. These statements report the net position of

the System and the activities that caused the changes in the net position during the year, respectively.

The Statements of Fiduciary Net Position present information on all System assets and liabilities, with

the difference between the two reported as net position restricted for pensions. Over time, increases or

decreases in net position restricted for pensions may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial

condition of the System is improving or deteriorating.

While the Statements of Fiduciary Net Position provide information about the nature and amount of

resources and obligations at year-end, the Statements of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position present the

results of the System’s activities during the fiscal year and information on the change in the net position

restricted for pensions during the fiscal year. The Statements of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position

measure the results of the System’s investment performance as well as its additions from contributions

and deductions for payment of benefits and administrative expenses. The Statements of Changes in

Fiduciary Net Position can be viewed as indicators of the System’s progress on the set goals of fully

funding all current and past service costs and possessing sufficient additional resources to pay for

current refunds of contributions and administrative and investment expenses.

The Notes to the Basic Financial Statements and Required Supplementary Information provide

explanations and other information that is helpful to a full understanding of the data provided in the

financial statements. The Notes to Financial Statements and Required Supplementary Information are

found starting on page 24 and page 41, respectively.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS: 2015 VS. 2014

Table 1 summarizes net position restricted for pensions as of June 30, 2015 and 2014:

Net position restricted for pensions decreased $44,554,177 from June 30, 2014 to June 30, 2015. The

main sources of this decrease were reductions in the System’s investment portfolio and a reduction in

the System’s security lending activity. The System’s security lending was lower as a result of a

reduction in lendable assets and loan volume. The fluctuations in receivables and investments payable

are primarily due to investment trading at year–end, where the outstanding balances represent

investments either sold or purchased, but not yet settled.

Table 2 summarizes changes in net position restricted for pensions for the years ended June 30, 2015

and 2014:

The System’s investment income (loss) for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were $15,335,097

and $66,233,018, respectively. The actual time-weighted annual returns for these two years were 4.0%

and 16.4%, respectively, compared to benchmark returns of 4.0% and 14.6%, respectively.

The System paid $59,007,536 in Police and Fire Retiree pension payments in fiscal year 2015 and

$57,409,113 in fiscal year 2014. This increase is due to mandated increases in Police and Fire Retiree

pension benefits and expiration of Fire Retiree concessions.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS: 2014 VS. 2013

Table 3 summarizes net position restricted for pensions as of June 30, 2014 and 2013:

Net position restricted for pensions increased $8,211,625 from June 30, 2013 to June 30, 2014. The

main source of this increase was an increase in investment income. Securities lending substantially

increased due to a change in the securities lending vendor. As a result of the new vendor, substantially

more of the System’s assets were included in the securities lending program. The fluctuations in

receivables and investments payable are primarily due to investment trading at year-end, where the

outstanding balances represent investments either sold or purchased, but not yet settled.

Table 4 summarizes changes in net position restricted for pensions for the years ended June 30, 2014

and 2013:

The System’s net investment income for the years ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $66,233,018 and

$37,302,667, respectively. The actual annual returns for these two years were 16.4% and 9.7%,

respectively, compared to benchmark returns of 14.6% and 7.1%, respectively.

In July 2012 the City issued deposited $210 million in pension obligation bond proceeds into the System

and entered into a funding agreement with the System Board which suspends contributions until July 1,

2017.

The System paid $57,409,113 in Police and Fire Retiree pension payments in fiscal year 2014 and

$59,547,296 in fiscal year 2013. This decrease reflects the ongoing reduction in the System’s

membership.

Notes to Basic Financial Statements For Years Ended June 30, 2015 and 2014

1. Description of the Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System

The Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System (the System) is a closed, single-employer

defined benefit pension plan (the Plan) established by the City of Oakland (City) Charter. The

System is governed by a board of seven trustees (the Board); the Mayor or his/her designate,

three Mayoral appointees approved by the City Council, an elected active or retired member of

the Police Department, an elected active or retired member from the Fire Department, and an

elected member position which alternates between the Police Department and Fire Department

membership. Trustees receive no compensation. The System covers the City’s uniformed

employees. As a result of a City Charter amendment, known as Measure R approved by the

electorate on June 8, 1976, membership in the plan is limited to uniformed employees hired

prior to July 1, 1976.

The System is exempt from the regulations of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of

1974 (ERISA). The System is also exempt from federal income taxes and California franchise

tax.

System Membership

At June 30, 2015 and 2014, the System membership consisted of only retirees and beneficiaries.

The System’s membership is as follows:

2015 2014

Basic Benefit Provisions

The City Charter establishes plan membership, contribution, and benefit provisions. The

System provides that any member who completes at least 25 years of service, regardless of age,

or completes 20 years of service and attains age 55, or has attained age 65 is eligible for

retirement benefits. The basic retirement allowance equals 50% of the compensation attached to

the average rank held during the three years immediately preceding retirement, plus an

additional allowance of 1 and 2/3% of such compensation for each year of service (up to ten)

subsequent to (a) qualifying for retirement and (b) July 1, 1951. However, any member retiring

at age 65 with less than 20 years of service shall receive a reduced retirement allowance based

upon the number of years of service. A member is eligible for early retirement benefits after 20

to 24 years of service with a retirement allowance based upon 40% to 48% of the compensation

attached to the average rank held during the three years preceding retirement. Additionally, a

member with 10 to 19 years of service may retire and, on or after the 25th anniversary of his/her

date of employment may receive a retirement allowance based upon 20% to 38% of the

compensation attached to the average rank held during the three years preceding retirement.

The System also provides for various death, disability and survivors’ benefits. Death and

disability benefits are paid to eligible members who became disabled or passed away prior to

retirement. If the member’s death or disability is duty related, then the member or widow is

paid a pension equivalent to an immediate service retirement. The duty related death or

disability pension is paid at a level no less than 50% of the pay attached to the rank. If a death

occurs after retirement, then a one-time payment of $1,000 is paid to the member’s designated

beneficiary.

After retirement, members receive benefits based on a fixed monthly dollar amount. Pension

amounts change based on changes to the compensation attached to the average rank. Upon a

retiree’s death, benefits are continued to an eligible surviving spouse at a two-thirds level for

service and non-duty disabled retirees and at a 100% level for retirements for duty disability.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The System is reported as a pension trust fund in the City’s basic financial statements. The

financial statements of the System present only the financial activities of the System and are not

intended to present the financial position and changes in financial position of the City in

conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting

The financial statements are prepared on a flow of economic resources measurement focus using

the accrual basis of accounting. Contributions are recognized in the period in which the

contributions are due pursuant to formal commitments as well as statutory or contractual

requirements, and benefits and refunds are recognized when payable under plan provisions.

Methods Used to Value Investments

Investments are reported at fair value. Securities traded on a national or international exchange

are valued at the last reported sales price at current exchange rates. Investments that do not have

an established market are reported at estimated fair values based on the net asset value as

determined by the fund manager based on quoted market prices of fund holdings or values

provided by the custodian or the applicable money manager.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting

principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and

assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results

could differ from those estimates.

Reclassifications

Certain comparative amounts for the prior period have been reclassified to conform to the

current period presentation. The fiduciary net position was not affected by such

reclassifications.

Implementation of New Accounting Pronouncements

In accordance with GASB Statement No. 63, the System renamed net assets held in trust for

pension benefits as net position, held in trust for pension benefits. The System had no deferred

outflows of resources or deferred inflows of resources as of June 30, 2015 and 2014.

The System implemented the provisions GASB Statement No. 65, Items Previously Reported as

Assets and Liabilities, for fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. This statement clarifies the

appropriate reporting of deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources to

ensure consistency in financial reporting. The implementation of GASB Statement No. 65 had

no impact on the System’s statements of fiduciary net position and changes in fiduciary net

position.

In June 2012, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 67, Financial Reporting for Pension Plans

– An Amendment of GASB Statement No. 25 to improve financial reporting by state and local

governmental pension plans. The System implemented the provisions of GASB Statement No.

67 for the year ended June 30, 2014. The new standard enhances the note disclosures and

required supplementary information and requires disclosure of the components of the

employer’s net pension liability in the notes and the presentation of multi-year trend information

on (1) the changes in the employer’s net pension liability, (2) components of the employer

contributions, and (3) investment returns in the required supplementary information.

3. Contributions

In accordance with the City Charter, active members hired after July 1, 1951, and prior to July 1,

1976, contribute a percentage of their earned salaries based upon entry age as determined by

consulting actuaries. During the year ended June 30, 2015 there were no employee

contributions. During the year ended June 30, 2014, the member contribution rate was 5.47%.

The City Charter limits employee contributions to 13.00% of earned salaries. Employee

contributions are refundable with interest at 4.00% per year if an employee elects to withdraw

from the System upon termination of employment with the City.

In March 1997, the City issued pension obligation bonds and deposited $417 million into the

System to pay the City’s contributions through June 2011. In accordance with an agreement

entered into at the time the Pension Obligation Bonds were issued in 1997, the City was not

expected to contribute until July 2011. In the year ended June 30, 2005, the City transferred

excess proceeds of $17,709,888 from the Oakland Joint Powers Financing Authority Refunding

Revenue 2005 Series B Bond to fund a portion of the City’s future obligation to the System.

Effective July 1, 2011, the City resumed contributing to the System. The City contributed

$45,507,996 in the year ended June 30, 2012. Using the current actuarial cost method, these

contributions are based on spreading costs as a level percentage of all uniformed employees’

compensation through June 30, 2026. Budgeted administrative expenses are included in the City

contribution rates. The City must contribute, at a minimum, such amounts as are necessary, on

an actuarial basis, to provide assets sufficient to meet benefits to be paid to plan members.

On July 30, 2012, the City contributed $210 million to the System. As a result of a funding

agreement entered into between the System’s Board and the City of Oakland no additional

contributions are required until July 1, 2017.

As of June 30, 2015, the System’s Net Pension Liability is approximately $216.3 million.

4. Cash, Deposits and Investments

Investment Policy

The System’s investment policy authorizes investment in U.S. equities, international equities,

U.S. fixed income instruments including U.S. Treasury notes and bonds, government agency

mortgage backed securities, U.S. corporate notes and bonds, collateralized mortgage obligations,

yankee bonds and non U.S.-issued fixed income securities denominated in foreign currencies.

The System’s investment portfolio is managed by external investment managers, except for the

bond iShares which are managed internally. During the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014,

the number of external investment managers was twelve.

The System investments are also restricted by the City Charter. In November 2006, City voters

passed Measure M to amend the City Charter to allow the System’s Board to invest in non-

dividend paying stocks and to change the asset allocation structure from 50% equities and 50%

fixed income to the Prudent Person Standard as defined by the California Constitution.

The System’s Investment Policy limits fixed income investments to a maximum average

duration of 10 years and a maximum remaining term to maturity (single issue) at purchase of 30

years, with targeted portfolio duration of between 3 to 8 years and targeted portfolio maturity of

15 years. The System’s investment policy allows the fixed income managers to invest in

securities with a minimum rating of B- or higher as long as the portfolio maintains an average

credit quality of BBB (investment grade using Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s or Fitch ratings).

The System’s investment policy states that investments in securities known as Collateralized

Mortgage Obligations (CMOs) shall be limited to a maximum of 20% of a broker account’s fair

value with no more than 5% in any one issue. CMOs are mortgage-backed securities that create

separate pools of pass-through rates for different classes of bondholders with varying maturities.

The fair values of CMOs are considered sensitive to interest rate changes because they have

embedded options.

The Investment Policy allows for each fixed income asset manager to have a maximum of 10%

of any single security investment in their individual portfolios with the exception of U.S.

government securities, which is allowed to have a maximum of 25% in each manager’s

portfolio.

The following was the Board’s adopted asset allocation policy as of June 30, 2015:

The Board’s target allocation does not include cash and cash equivalents, which are designated

for approved administrative budget purposes.

Concentrations

GASB Statement No. 40 and GASB Statement No. 67 require the disclosure of investments in

any one organization that represent 5 percent or more of the System’s fiduciary net position. As

of June 30, 2015 and 2014, no investment in any single issuer exceeded 5% of the System’s

fiduciary net position.

Rate of Return

The money-weighted rate of return is a measure of the rate of return for an asset or portfolio of

assets that incorporates the size and timing of cash flows. For the years ended June 30, 2015

and 2014, the annual money-weighted rates of return on pension plan investments, net of

pension plan investment expense, were 3.9% and 16.4%, respectively.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, cash and cash equivalents consisted of cash in treasury held in

the City’s cash and investment pool as well as cash deposits held in bank and with a custodian.

These funds are invested according to the investment policy adopted by the City Council.

Interest earned on these pooled accounts is allocated monthly to all funds based on the average

daily cash balance maintained by the respective funds. Information regarding the characteristics

of the entire investment pool can be found in the City’s June 30, 2015 basic financial statements.

As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, the System’s share of the City’s investment pool totaled

$3,047,327 and $4,155,557, respectively. The System also had cash not included in the City’s

investment pool. As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, the System’s cash and cash deposits not held in

the City’s investment pool totaled $60,638 and $67,448, respectively.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an

investment. As described previously, the System’s Investment Policy limits fixed income

investments to a maximum average duration of 10 years and a maximum remaining term to

maturity (single issue) at purchase of 30 years, with targeted portfolio duration of between 3 to 8

years and targeted portfolio maturity of 15 years. The weighted average duration for the

System’s fixed income investment portfolio excluding fixed income short-term investments and

securities lending investments was 5.19 years as of June 30, 2015 and 4.82 years as of June 30,

2014.

Fair Value Highly Sensitive to Change in Interest Rates

The terms of a debt investment may cause its fair value to be highly sensitive to interest rate

changes. The System has invested in CMOs, which are mortgage-backed bonds that pay pass-

through rates with varying maturities. The fair values of CMOs are considered sensitive to

interest rate changes because they have embedded options, which are triggers related to

quantities of delinquencies or defaults in the loans backing the mortgage pool. If a balance of

delinquent loans reaches a certain threshold, interest and principal that would be used to pay

junior bondholders is instead directed to pay off the principal balance of senior bondholders,

shortening the life of the senior bonds.

Custodial Credit Risk

Custodial credit risk is the risk that, in the event of a failure of a depository financial institution

or counterparty to a transaction, there will be an inability to recover the value of deposits,

investments, or collateral securities in the possession of an outside party.

The California Government Code requires that governmental securities or first trust deed

mortgage notes be used as collateral for demand deposits and certificates of deposit at 110

percent and 150 percent, respectively, of all deposits not covered by federal deposit insurance.

As the City holds cash and certificates of deposit on behalf of the System, the collateral must be

held by the pledging financial institution’s trust department and is considered held in the City’s

name. For all other System deposits, the collateral must be held by the pledging financial

institution’s trust department and is considered held in the System’s name.

The City, on behalf of the System, does not have any funds or deposits that are not covered by

depository insurance, which are either uncollateralized, collateralized with securities held by the

pledging financial institution, or collateralized with securities held by the pledging financial

institution’s trust department or agent, but not in the City’s name. The System does not have

any investments that are not registered in the name of the System and are either held by the

counterparty or the counterparty’s trust department or agent but not in the System’s name.

Foreign Currency Risk

Foreign currency risk is the risk that changes in foreign exchanges rates will adversely affect the

fair values of an investment or deposit. Currency hedging is allowed under the System’s

investment policy for defensive purposes only. The investment policy limits currency hedging

to a maximum of 25% of the portfolio value.

The following summarizes the System’s investments denominated in foreign currencies as of

June 30, 2015 and 2014:

Securities Lending Transactions

The System’s investment policy authorizes participation in securities lending transactions,

which are short-term collateralized loans of the System’s securities to broker-dealers with a

simultaneous agreement allowing the System to invest and receive earnings on the collateral

received. All securities loans can be terminated on demand by either the System or the

borrower, although the average term of loans is one week.

The administrator of the System’s securities lending activities is responsible for maintaining an

adequate level of collateral in an amount equal to at least 102% of market value of loaned U.S.

government securities, common stock and other equity securities, bonds, debentures, corporate

debt securities, notes, and mortgages or other obligations. Collateral received may include cash,

letters of credit, or securities. If securities collateral is received, the System cannot pledge or

sell the collateral securities unless the borrower defaults.

As of June 30, 2015 and 2014, management believes the System has minimized its credit risk

exposure to borrowers because the amounts held by the System as collateral exceeded the

securities loaned by the System. The System’s contract with the administrator requires it to

indemnify the System if the borrowers fail to return the securities (and if the collateral is

inadequate to replace the securities borrowed) or fails to pay the System for income distributions

by the securities’ issuers while the securities are on loan.

Actuarial Method and Assumptions

The total pension liability was determined based on an actuarial valuation as of July 1, 2014,

using the entry age normal actuarial cost method and the following actuarial assumptions,

applied to all periods included in the measurement.

Measurements as of the reporting date are based on the fair value of assets as of June 30, 2015,

and the total pension liability as of the valuation date, June 30, 2014, updated to June 30, 2015.

There were no significant events between the valuation date and the measurement date so the

update procedures only included the addition of interest cost offset by actual benefits payments.

There are no active members of the plan, and thus no service cost.

Mortality rates for healthy lives changed from RP-2000 Combined Healthy Table to CalPERS

Healthy Table from the 2006-2011 Experience Study. Mortality rates for disabled lives changed

from CalPERS Industrial Disability Mortality Table from the 2006-2011 Experience Study.

Mortality improvement tables changed from Scale AA using base years of 2006 (healthy lives)

and 2010 (disabled lives) to MP-2014 from a base year of 2009.

The actuarial assumptions used in the July 1, 2014 valuation were based on the results of an

actuarial experience study for the period July 1, 2011 – June 30, 2014.

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a

building-block method in which best-estimates ranges of expected future real rates of return

(expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each

major asset class. These ranges are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return

by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target allocation percentage and by

adding expected inflation.

Investment Rate of Return 6.54%

Inflation Rate, U.S. 2.75%

Inflation Rate, Bay Area 2.85%

Long-term Post-Retirement Benefit Increases 3.25%

Best estimates of geometric real rates of return for each major class included in the pension

plan’s target asset allocation as of June 30, 2015 (see the discussion of the pension plan’s

investment policy) are summarized in the following table:

Discount Rate

The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 6.54%. The projection of cash

flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that the City would contribute to the Plan

based on its July 1, 2012 funding agreement with the System. This agreement suspends City

contributions until the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2017, after which they will resume, based

upon the recommendation of the actuary, with a City Charter requirement that the Plan’s

liabilities be fully funded by July 1, 2026. A cash flow projection showed that the projected

fiduciary net position would be greater than or equal to the benefit payments projected for each

future period. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on Plan investments was applied

to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.

Sensitivity of the net pension liability to changes in the discount rate

The following presents the net pension liability of the City, calculated using the discount rate of

6. Reserves

Active Member Contributions Reserve represents total accumulated member contributions.

Additions include member contributions and investment earnings; deductions include refunds of

member contributions and transfers to the Retired Member Contribution Reserve.

Retired Member Contribution Reserve represents the total accumulated transfers from active

member contributions and investments, less payments to retired members and beneficiaries.

Employer Reserve represents the total accumulated employer contributions for retirement

payments. Additions include contributions from the employer, investment earnings and other

income; deductions include payments to retired members and beneficiaries and administrative

expenses.

The aggregate total of the System’s major reserves as of June 30, 2015 and 2014 equals net

position restricted for pensions and comprises the following:

7. Administrative Expenses

The City provides the System with accounting and other administrative services. Staff salaries

included in administrative expenses for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 were $677,791

and $632,304, respectively. Other administrative expenses including accounting and audit

services, legal fees, annual report and miscellaneous expense for the years ended June 30, 2015

This lawsuit was initiated by the City of Oakland in June 2011, and sought to stop the System

from paying retirement benefits based on certain holidays and shift differential premium pay

(7.25%) to many police retirees. The City also sought an order requiring the System to collect

overpayments. The trial court ruled in favor of the City and the decision was partially upheld

upon appeal. The Court of Appeal agrees that those elements were overpayments, but limited

the extent to which shift differential overpayments could be recovered back from retirees.

The writ and judgment entered by the trial court after the appeals process directed the System’s

board to cease paying excessive holidays and the shift differential premium. In September and

October 2014, the System’s Board passed resolutions #6819 and #6824 to seek 100% recovery

of the combined overpayments, which totals approximately $3.9 million. On October 28, 2015,

the System’s Board approved a collection methodology that would collect the overpayments

from police members over 48 months. The repayments will commence on the February 2016

pension payment, payable March 1, 2016. These actions could increase the fund by

approximately $3.5 million, depending on the recovery from retirees and survivors.

Retired Oakland Police Officers Association v. Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System, et al., Alameda County Superior Court Action No. RG15758831

This lawsuit is an outgrowth of prior litigation entitled City of Oakland v. Oakland Police and

Fire Retirement System, et al., Alameda County Superior Court case number RG11580626. The

Plaintiffs allege that the System failed to grant them proper notice and an opportunity to be

heard before the Board adopted the resolutions calling for the recoupment of past

overpayments. This lawsuit is pending in the Alameda County Superior Court and a trial date

has been set for March 18, 2016.

Retired Oakland Police Officers Association v. Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System, et al., Alameda County Superior Court Action No. RG14753080

A lawsuit was filed on December 30, 2014, by Petitioners Retired Oakland Police Officers

Association (ROPOA) and several System retirees against the System, the System’s Board, and

the City of Oakland. The lawsuit argues that Master Police Officer Pay (“MPO Pay”) should be

considered “compensation attached to rank” and should be included in the pension pay of

certain police retirees per the City of Oakland Charter. This lawsuit is pending and a merit

hearing has been set for May 23, 2016.

SUMMARY OF ACTUARIAL VALUE, ASSUMPTIONS AND FUNDING METHODS

PURPOSE OF ACTUARIAL VALUATION

The Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System (PFRS) is a closed defined benefit pension plan. It was

closed to new members on June 30, 1976. As of July 1, 2014, there are no active member. All members

are retirees and beneficiaries.

The actual costs of a defined benefit plan are determined entirely by the amount of the benefit promise,

the actual salaries and service of the plan participants, and how long they and their beneficiaries live to

receive payments. In addition, the actuarial methodology provides a reasonable plan, or method, towards

funding the expected costs of the plan. This information assists the plan trustees so they can make

informed decisions regarding plan investments and how much in contributions will be required from the

employer to eventually fully pay for the plan’s costs.

The most recent actuarial valuation was as of July 1, 2014. The Key Results of the actuarial valuation

are as follows:

The City of Oakland issued Pension Obligation Bonds (POBs) in July 2012. The City then

contributed $210 million from the bond proceeds to the Plan. These proceeds act as prepayments for

Oakland PFRS contributions from the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2012 through the fiscal year

beginning July 1, 2016. Contributions are expected to resume during the fiscal year beginning July

1, 2017, in accordance with the funding agreement dated July 1, 2012 between the City and the

PFRS.

In accordance with the 2012 funding agreement, the employer contribution amount remains at $0 for

Fiscal Year 2015-2016 due to the $210 million contribution from the POBs.

During the year ended June 30, 2014, the return on Plan assets was 15.53% on a market value basis

net of investment expenses, as compared to the 7.00% assumption. This resulted in a market value

gain on investments of $37.4 million. The Actuarial Value of Assets (AVA) is calculated as the

expected Actuarial Value of Assets plus 20% of the difference between the Market Value and the

expected Actuarial Value of Assets. This smoothed value of assets returned 9.37%, for an actuarial

asset gain of $10.7 million.

The Plan experienced a gain on the actuarial liability of $19.9 million, due primarily to the removal

of shift pay in the determination of the benefit amounts. Combining the liability and asset gains, the

Plan experienced a total gain of $30.6 million.

DRAFT

Page 72: SPECIAL MEETING of the AUDIT / OPERATIONS COMMITTEE of … › oakca1 › groups › hrm › documents › ... · Annual Report of the Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System for

56

As a result of higher than expected asset returns, the Plan’s smoothed funded ratio, the ratio of

actuarial assets over actuarial liability, increased from 67.2% last year to 67.8% on an AVA basis as

of June 30, 2014 before any changes in assumptions. The Plan’s funded ratio increased from 69.5%

to 74.8% on a Market Value of Assets (MVA) basis.

The Plan’s funded ratio was reduced from 67.8% to 64.6% on an AVA basis, and from 74.8% to

71.2% on an MVA basis as a result of the various assumption changes adopted as part of the most

recent Experience Study, in particular the change in the discount rate and the implementation of new

generational mortality assumptions.

The unfunded actuarial liability (UAL) is the excess of the Plan’s actuarial liability over the

actuarial value of assets. The Plan experienced a decrease in the UAL from $215.0 million to $199.6

million as of July 1, 2014 before any assumption changes, and increased to $230.2 million after

assumption changes.

Overall participant membership decreased compared to last year. 25 members died, 10 of whom

who had their benefits continue to a surviving spouse. In addition, 22 surviving beneficiaries died.

The last remaining active member of the Plan also retired during the year.

As was done in the prior actuarial valuation, we have projected an actuarially determined

contribution amount for the Fiscal Year 2017-2018, the first year after the POB-based prepayments

have expired, according to the 2012 funding agreement. The estimated contribution for FY 2017-

2018 is $35.1 million, based on the projected value of the liabilities and the projected Actuarial

Value of Assets. This represents a small decrease of $0.5 million from the amount determined in the

prior valuation for the same Fiscal Year. The decrease in the projected contribution is the combined

result of the asset and liability gains described above.

If the contribution were determined using a projected asset value based on the current market (i.e.

non-smoothed) value of assets, the estimated contribution for FY 2017-2018 would be $31.6

million. The contribution is smaller than that determined using the projected AVA, because the

current market value reflects the full amount of the investment gains experienced in FY 2013-2014

and prior years, while under the AVA projection a portion of those gains are deferred until years

after FY 2017-2018.

VALUATION SUMMARY

The table below is a summary of the results of the valuation. See notes following the table for a

definition of terms.

Below we present Table I-1 which summarizes all the key results of the valuation with respect to

membership, assets and liabilities, and contributions. The results are presented and compared for both

the current and prior plan year.

ACTUARIAL DEFINITIONS

The Present Value of Projected Benefits (PVPB) is the present value of all future benefits for current plan participants.

The Actuarial Liability (AL) represents the portion of the PVPB attributable to past service. Since all participants in this plan are either retired or assumed to retire at the valuation date, the Actuarial Liability is equal to the Present Value of Projected Benefits for this plan.

The Actuarial Value of Assets is a smoothed value of assets used to even out market fluctuations in asset values.

The Unfunded Actuarial Liability (UAL) is equal to the difference between the Actuarial Liability and the Actuarial Value of Assets.

ACTUARIAL METHODS AND ASSUMPTIONS

ACTUARIAL METHOD

The actuarial funding method used to determine the System’s normal cost and the unfunded actuarial

liability is the Entry Age Normal cost method. Under this method, the Plan’s Actuarial Liability (AL)

is determined as the Present Value of Future Benefits (PVFB) less the Present Value of Future Normal

Costs (PVFNC). Since all of the Plan’s members are retired or are assumed to retire immediately, the

AL and the PVFB are the same.

Actuarial Value of Plan Assets

The excess of the AL over the Actuarial Value of Assets (AVA) is the Unfunded Actuarial Liability

(UAL). In accordance with the Plan’s funding agreement with the City of Oakland, the UAL must be

amortized by July 1, 2026, with contributions resuming in the 2017-2018 fiscal year. The projected

fiscal year 2017-2018 contribution has been calculated using level percent of pay amortization, based on

total projected City payroll for all Safety employees.

ACTUARIAL ASSUMPTIONS

Rate of Return

The expected annual rates of return, net of investment expenses, on all Plan assets are shown in the table

below. The equivalent single discount rate for these returns using the Plan’s expected projected benefit

payments is 6.54%.

Inflation

The assumed rate of general inflation is 2.75% (entire US) and local inflation is 2.85% (Bay Area). The

general inflation rate is used in the determination of the investment return assumptions. The local

inflation rate is used in the determination of the growth in expenses and salaries (which determine the

COLA increases).

Cost of Living Adjustments

Cost-of-living adjustments are based on salary increases for a retiree’s rank at retirement.

The long-term rate of salary increase is assumed to be 3.25% (2.85% inflation plus 0.4% productivity).

The following schedule shows salary increases based on the current Police and Fire contracts, which

expire on June 30, 2015 and October 31, 2017, respectively. All assumed increases after those dates are

as follows:

The monthly indices cover 20 major metropolitan areas, which are also aggregated to form two composites – one an aggregation of 10 of the major metropolitan areas; the other including all 20.

The S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices are calculated monthly and published with a two month lag.

HANSBERGER GROWTH INVESTORS, LP (“HGI”) INTERNATIONAL GROWTH EQUITY COMPOSITEANNUAL DISCLOSURE PRESENTATION

Composite Disclosures

N.A – Information is not statistically meaningful due to an insufficient number of portfolios in the composite for the entire year.International Growth Equity Composite contains fully discretionary accounts invested according to HGI LP’s growth equity style in equities of companies domiciled outside the U.S. Cash is a residual of the investment process. For comparison purposes the composite is measured against the MSCI All Country World Index Excluding U.S.A. (“MSCI ACWI ex USA), which measures the returns of equities of companies which are domiciled outside the U.S., and the MSCI EAFE (Net) Index, which measures the returns of equities of companies domiciled in developed markets in Europe, Australasia, and the Far East. Both indexes are compiled by Morgan Stanley Capital International, and are float weighted with net dividends reinvested. Due to net of withholding tax returns not being available prior to January 1, 1999, the returns presented for the MSCI ACWI ex USA are a blend of the gross of withholding taxes from inception thru December 31, 1998 and net of withholding taxes from January 1, 1999 thru the current date. Prior to January 1, 2015, the composite was measured against the MSCI ACWI (Gross) ex USA Index, and the MSCI EAFE (Gross) Index. The benchmark changes were applied retroactively to provide a better comparison to the composite for which the return is net of withholding taxes. Investors may not invest directly in these indexes. For the period from July 31, 1996 through January 12, 1999, the track record presented here consists of portfolios with substantially similar investment objectives, policies and strategies managed by three senior members of HGI LP’s management team while they were employed by Indago Capital Management in Toronto, Ontario, an affiliate of The Canada Life Assurance Company, an advisor not affiliated with HGI LP. For periods between January 13, 1999 and July 31, 2014, the track record presented here consists of the composite of the same name maintained by Hansberger Global Investors, Inc., (“HGI Inc.”) an advisor not affiliated with HGI LP. See the disclosures below regarding the acquisition of the international growth strategy assets of HGI Inc. by HGI LP after July 31, 2014.(continued on the next page)

HANSBERGER GROWTH INVESTORS, LP (“HGI”) INTERNATIONAL GROWTH EQUITY COMPOSITEANNUAL DISCLOSURE PRESENTATION

Composite Disclosures

*The firm is defined as Hansberger Growth Investors, LP (HGI LP), a subsidiary of Madison Asset Management, LLC, and an investment adviser registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Investment Advisors Act of 1940. (Registration does not imply a certain level of skill or training.) The firm maintains a list of composite descriptions, which is available upon request. The International Growth Equity Composite was created on August 1, 2014 and continues the performance of the same composite created on December 2008 by HGI Inc. The international growth management team of HGI Inc. who were responsible for composite performance prior to August 1, 2014 joined HGI LP on August 1, 2014.

HGI LP claims compliance with the Global Investment Performance Standards (GIPS®) and has prepared and presented this report in compliance with the GIPS standards. HGI LP has been independently verified from August 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014. HGI Inc. was independently verified for the periods from January 1 1995 through December 31, 2013.

Verification assesses whether (1) the firm has complied with all the composite construction requirements of the GIPS standards on a firm-wide basis and (2) the firm’s policies and procedures are designed to calculate and present performance in compliance with the GIPS standards. The International Growth Equity Composite has been examined for the periods August 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014. The verification and performance examination reports are available upon request. The International Growth Equity Composite, while being maintained by HGI Inc., was examined for the periods from July 31, 1996 through December 31, 2013. The HGI Inc. verification and performance examination reports are available upon request.

Results are based on fully discretionary accounts under management, including those no longer with the firm. Beginning with August 1, 2014, composite policy requires the temporary removal of any portfolio incurring a client-initiated significant cash inflow or outflow of greater than 75% of portfolio assets. Prior to August 1, 2014, there was not a significant cash flow policy. The returns presented represent past performance and do not indicate future results, which may vary.

Valuations and returns are computed and stated in U.S. Dollars. Returns are presented gross and net-of-fees and include the reinvestment of all income and are net of withholding taxes on dividends. Net returns are calculated using the highest fee of 0.75% within the product’s standard fee schedule, deducted quarterly in arrears. From inception thru December 31, 1998, the performance presented contains a certain percentage of portfolios that were mutual funds. During this time period, the net of fee mutual fund performance was used to calculate the gross of fee composite performance which was reduced by fund investment advisory fees, other fund expenses and then reduced again by the highest fee (0.75%). Period-end composite accounts using net mutual fund performance to calculate gross composite performance as a percent of total composite assets were as follows: 100% in 1996, 100% in 1997 and 28% in 1998. During some periods after December 1998 but prior to August 2014, the composite contained at least one portfolio which was net of a bundled fee consisting of trading expenses and custody costs. Both the gross and the net returns are net of the entire bundled fee. Period-end composite accounts with bundled fees as a percent of total composite assets were as follows: 0.5% in 2007, 0.5% in 2008, 0.5% in 2009, 0.5% in 2010, 0.5% in 2011, 0.3% in 2012 and 0.3% in 2013. The annual composite dispersion presented is an equal-weighted standard deviation calculated for the accounts in the composite the entire year, however, is not presented for periods when the statistic is not meaningful due to an insufficient number of portfolios in the composite over given time periods. On January 1, 2015, the three-year annualized ex-post standard deviation of the benchmarks were adjusted retroactively to coincide with the change from gross to net of withholding taxes as stated above. Policies for valuing portfolios, calculating performance, and preparing compliant presentations are available upon request.

This product’s standard fee schedule is 0.75% on the first 50 million, 0.50% on the next 100 million and 0.40% thereafter. Actual investment advisory fees incurred by clients may vary. Additional information regarding HGI LP’s fees is included in its Disclosure Brochure.

Attribution Explanation

The attribution report can provide insight into the source of a portfolio’s performance relative to the benchmark. The model attributes return by dividing the market into categories based on sectors or regions. The report breaks the return down into three components: allocation, security selection, and currency. Using different categories and components will yield different results.

Allocation Contribution is the portion of the active return (portfolio return minus benchmark return) attributable to having different sector/regional weights than the benchmark. The calculation is the portfolio’s active weight in the sector/region (portfolio weight minus benchmark weight) times the sector/region’s excess return (benchmark sector/region return minus the overall benchmark return).

Security Selection Contribution is the portion of the active return resulting from holding different securities, or having different weights on individual securities, than the benchmark. The calculation is the portfolio’s weight in the sector/region times the portfolio’s active return in the sector/region (portfolio sector/region return minus the benchmark’s sector/region return). This formula combines security selection with the interaction effect.

Currency Contribution is the portion of the active return attributable to holding a different mix of currencies than the benchmark. Due to system limitations, in order to correctly calculate the currency impact the underlying (parent) securities are used for ADRs and similar issues. However, in cases where the underlying security also does not trade in the local currency, the currency will be incorrect and some of the return may be reflected under Selection.

This attribution is calculated on a daily buy-and-hold basis using each day’s portfolio and benchmark holdings. Actual transactions, and their costs, are not included in the analysis. Individual day results are linked together to produce longer period reports. Total portfolio return is calculated externally and input into the finished report. The portfolio return calculated by the attribution system may differ.

For periods in excess of one year, returns are annualized. Other effects such as contribution are scaled to have the same relative impact on the active return as they had prior to being annualized.

FactSet’s attribution methodology employs the GRAP method of “smoothing” residuals in order to make the items on the report add up to the correct number.

When ETFs are held in the portfolio, FactSet “looks-through” to the underlying index’s holdings.

Caribbean countries are included in Latin America for emerging market portfolio attribution and in Emerging Markets in attribution for portfolios that include developed markets. Developed Middle Eastern countries appear in Europe for portfolios that include developed markets.

3 For comparison purposes only

Since being retained as OPFRS’s active international equity manager in January 2006,

Hansberger has outperformed its benchmark, the MSCI ACWI ex-US index, over all time periods

measured. This includes a very strong 2015, which saw Hansberger outperform its benchmark by

6.9% over the calendar year. When compared to its eVestment Alliance peers, the Hansberger

International Growth Equity performed well over the past year, but lagged the median manager

over the 3-, 5-, and 7-year periods.

Organizational Issues

Since being installed as one of OPFRS’s active international equity managers in 2011, there has

been considerable change to the organization and investment team. In early 2013,

Hansberger’s value equity product lost over a billion in assets when one of its largest clients,

Page 141: SPECIAL MEETING of the AUDIT / OPERATIONS COMMITTEE of … › oakca1 › groups › hrm › documents › ... · Annual Report of the Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System for

2

Vanguard, pulled out of the product. This led to a downsizing and then eventual separation of

the value equity product from the Hansberger origination. However, despite this disruption, the

Hansberger growth equity team and product did not experience any changes. Later, in April

2014, Hansberger Global Investors announced that it would partner with Madison Asset

Management to form a new stand-alone entity titled Hansberger Growth Investors, LP. The

Hansberger Growth team completed its transition to Madison Asset Management’s back office

system on August 1, 2014.

The significant organization changes resulted in the loss of several clients, a significant reduction

in product AUM, and a downsizing of the investment team; all of which resulted in Hansberger’s

current “Watch” status. Although the changes were troubling, PCA believed that the new

organizational structure and increased employee ownership was a positive attribute and could

help to reinvigorate investment performance. Since PCA’s last Watch memo regarding

Hansberger in September 2015, there have been no further changes to the investment team

and the international growth product’s total AUM and number of institutional clients seems to

have stabilized at approximately $500 million and 14, respectively.

Investment Philosophy & Process, per manager

Hansberger’s international growth equity philosophy is founded on the premise that superior

growth companies with attractive valuations provide the best opportunities for investment.

Hansberger believes that investors should seek to identify those companies, internationally, that

have consistently exhibited the ability to maintain a competitive market advantage through

innovative product design, exceptional management, strong market share and superior

profitability. Hansberger starts from a higher quality investment universe than most managers,

and their philosophy is applied using a disciplined mix of proprietary quantitative and qualitative

methodologies.

Hansberger’s approach to portfolio construction incorporates a matrix framework that allows

them to maintain clarity and precision regarding industry and regional weightings. Hansberger’s

matrix system is proprietary and provides them with the ability to monitor portfolio weightings

across industries and regions. Industry and regional considerations are top-down and are driven

by macro-economic considerations. A proprietary matrix was developed as a tool for analyzing

the overall portfolio structure relative to the benchmark, and allows Hansberger to analyze the

portfolio structure from a regional as well as industry perspective. The matrix is constructed with

regions depicted in columns and industries depicted in rows with appropriate data provided for

the portfolio as well as for the index (ACWI ex US) in the columns and rows. This information is

used to identify unintended exposures within the portfolio and monitor allocations to both

regions and industries on an ongoing basis.

• Equity volatility rose significantly in January 2016, and the U.S. equity market declined by over 5% .

• Prices of all growth risk exposed assets (equities, credit) declined.

• Commodity prices continued their five-year decline, as equities and oil prices traded in tandem for much of the month.

• The PCA Market Sentiment Indicator turned red at month end. The spread element of the indicator has been negative since last year; and, year-over-year equity returns followed suit in January. (page 4) PCA will be looking to see if this sentiment signal is confirmed in coming months.

• While U.S. public equity valuations dropped out of top decile levels, they are still at high valuation levels relative to history. Non-U.S. equity valuations continue to cheapen.

• Credit spreads have widened to above average levels, indicating falling valuation levels for credit(cheaper relative to their history).

• Low levels of global inflation, driven by commodity price declines, are weighing on markets. Breakeven inflation (page 10) dropped below 1.5% to levels not seen since the financial crisis.

METRIC DESCRIPTION, RATIONALE FOR SELECTION AND CALCULATION METHODOLOGY

US Equity Markets:

Metric: P/E ratio = Price / “Normalized” earnings for the S&P 500 Index

To represent the price of US equity markets, we have chosen the S&P 500 index. This index has thelongest published history of price, is well known, and also has reliable, long-term, published quarterlyearnings. The price=P of the P/E ratio is the current price of the market index (the average daily price ofthe most recent full month for the S&P 500 index). Equity markets are very volatile. Prices fluctuatesignificantly during normal times and extremely during periods of market stress or euphoria. Therefore,developing a measure of earnings power (E) which is stable is vitally important, if the measure is toprovide insight. While equity prices can and do double, or get cut in half, real earnings power does notchange nearly as much. Therefore, we have selected a well known measure of real, stable earningspower developed by Yale Professor Robert Shiller known as the Shiller E-10. The calculation of E-10 issimply the average real annual earnings over the past 10 years. Over 10 years, the earnings shenanigansand boom and bust levels of earnings tend to even out (and often times get restated). Therefore, thisearnings statistic gives a reasonably stable, slow-to-change estimate of average real earnings power forthe index. Professor Shiller’s data and calculation of the E-10 are available on his website athttp://www.econ.yale.edu/~shiller/data.htm. We have used his data as the base for our calculations.Details of the theoretical justification behind the measure can be found in his book Irrational Exuberance[Princeton University Press 2000, Broadway Books 2001, 2nd ed., 2005].

Developed Equity Markets Excluding the US:

Metric: P/E ratio = Price / “Normalized” earnings for the MSCI EAFE Index

To represent the price of non-US developed equity markets, we have chosen the MSCI EAFE index. Thisindex has the longest published history of price for non-US developed equities. The price=P of the P/Eratio is the current price of the market index (the average daily price of the most recent full month for theMSCI EAFE index). The price level of this index is available starting in December 1969. Again, for thereasons described above, we elected to use the Shiller E-10 as our measure of earnings (E). Since12/1972, a monthly price earnings ratio is available from MSCI. Using this quoted ratio, we have backedout the implied trailing-twelve month earnings of the EAFE index for each month from 12/1972 to thepresent. These annualized earnings are then inflation adjusted using CPI-U to represent real earnings inUS dollar terms for each time period. The Shiller E-10 for the EAFE index (10 year average real earnings) iscalculated in the same manner as detailed above.

However, we do not believe that the pricing and earnings history of the EAFE markets are long enough tobe a reliable representation of pricing history for developed market equities outside of the US. Therefore,in constructing the Long-Term Average Historical P/E for developed ex-US equities for comparisonpurposes, we have elected to use the US equity market as a developed market proxy, from 1881 to 1982.This lowers the Long-Term Average Historical P/E considerably. We believe this methodology provides amore realistic historical comparison for a market with a relatively short history.

METRIC DESCRIPTION, RATIONALE FOR SELECTION AND CALCULATION METHODOLOGY

Emerging Market Equity Markets:

Metric: Ratio of Emerging Market P/E Ratio to Developed Market P/E Ratio

To represent the Emerging Markets P/E Ratio, we have chosen the MSCI Emerging Market Free Index, whichhas P/E data back to January 1995 on Bloomberg. To represent the Developed Markets PE Ratio, we havechosen the MSCI World Index, which also has data back to January 1995 on Bloomberg. Although thereare issues with published, single time period P/E ratios, in which the denominator effect can cause largemovements, we feel that the information contained in such movements will alert investors to market activitythat they will want to interpret.

US Private Equity Markets:

Metrics: S&P LCD Average EBITDA Multiples Paid in LBOs and US Quarterly Deal Volume

The Average Purchase Price to EBITDA multiples paid in LBOs is published quarterly by S&P in their LCD study.This is the total price paid (both equity and debt) over the trailing-twelve month EBITDA (earnings beforeinterest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) as calculated by S&P LCD. This is the relevant, high-levelpricing metric that private equity managers use in assessing deals. Data is published monthly.

US quarterly deal volume for private equity is the total deal volume in $ billions (both equity and debt)reported in the quarter by Thomson Reuters Buyouts. This metric gives a measure of the level of activity inthe market. Data is published quarterly.

U.S Private Real Estate Markets:

Metrics: US Cap Rates, Cap Rate Spreads, and Transactions as a % of Market Value

Real estate cap rates are a measure of the price paid in the market to acquire properties versus theirannualized income generation before financing costs (NOI=net operating income). The data, published byNCREIF, describes completed and leased properties (core) on an unleveraged basis. We chose to usecurrent value cap rates. These are capitalization rates from properties that were revalued during thequarter. This data relies on estimates of value and therefore tends to be lagging (estimated prices areslower to rise and slower to fall than transaction prices). The data is published quarterly.

Spreads between the cap rate (described above) and the 10-year nominal Treasury yield, indicate ameasure of the cost of properties versus a current measure of the cost of financing.

Transactions as a % of Market Value Trailing-Four Quarters is a measure of property turnover activity in theNCREIF Universe. This quarterly metric is a measure of activity in the market.

Credit Markets US Fixed Income:

Metric: Spreads

The absolute level of spreads over treasuries and spread trends (widening / narrowing) are good indicatorsof credit risk in the fixed income markets. Spreads incorporate estimates of future default, but can also bedriven by technical dislocations in the fixed income markets. Abnormally narrow spreads (relative tohistorical levels) indicate higher levels of valuation risk, wide spreads indicate lower levels of valuation riskand / or elevated default fears. Investment grade bond spreads are represented by the Barclays CapitalUS Corporate Investment Grade Index Intermediate Component. The high yield corporate bond spreadsare represented by the Barclays Capital US Corporate High Yield Index.

Appendix

METRIC DESCRIPTION, RATIONALE FOR SELECTION AND CALCULATION METHODOLOGY

Measure of Equity Market Fear / Uncertainty

Metric: VIX – Measure of implied option volatility for U.S. equity markets

The VIX is a key measure of near-term volatility conveyed by implied volatility of S&P 500 index optionprices. VIX increases with uncertainty and fear. Stocks and the VIX are negatively correlated. Volatilitytends to spike when equity markets fall.

Measure of Monetary Policy

Metric: Yield Curve Slope

We calculate the yield curve slope as the 10 year treasury yield minus the 1 year treasury yield. When theyield curve slope is zero or negative, this is a signal to pay attention. A negative yield curve slope signalslower rates in the future, caused by a contraction in economic activity. Recessions are typicallypreceded by an inverted (negatively sloped) yield curve. A very steep yield curve (2 or greater)indicates a large difference between shorter-term interest rates (the 1 year rate) and longer-term rates(the 10 year rate). This can signal expansion in economic activity in the future, or merely higher futureinterest rates.

Measures of US Inflation Expectations

Metrics: Breakeven Inflation and Inflation Adjusted Commodity Prices

Inflation is a very important indicator impacting all assets and financial instruments. Breakeven inflation iscalculated as the 10 year nominal treasury yield minus the 10 year real yield on US TIPS (treasury inflationprotected securities). Abnormally low long-term inflation expectations are indicative of deflationary fears.A rapid rise in breakeven inflation indicates an acceleration in inflationary expectations as marketparticipants sell nominal treasuries and buy TIPs. If breakeven inflation continues to rise quarter overquarter, this is a signal of inflationary worries rising, which may cause Fed action and / or dollar decline.

Commodity price movement (above the rate of inflation) is an indication of anticipated inflation causedby real global economic activity putting pressure on resource prices. We calculate this metric byadjusted in the Dow Jones UBS Commodity Index (formerly Dow Jones AIG Commodity Index) by US CPI-U.While rising commodity prices will not necessarily translate to higher US inflation, higher US inflation will likelyshow up in higher commodity prices, particularly if world economic activity is robust.

These two measures of anticipated inflation can, and often are, conflicting.

Measures of US Treasury Bond Interest Rate Risk

Metrics: 10-Year Treasury Forward-Looking Real Yield and 10-Year Treasury Duration

The expected annualized real yield of the 10 year U.S. Treasury Bond is a measure of valuation risk for U.S.Treasuries. A low real yield means investors will accept a low rate of expected return for the certainly ofreceiving their nominal cash flows. PCA estimates the expected annualized real yield by subtracting anestimate of expected 10 year inflation (produced by the Survey of Professional Forecasters as collectedby the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia), from the 10 year Treasury constant maturity interest rate.

Duration for the 10-Year Treasury Bond is calculated based on the current yield and a price of 100. This is ameasure of expected percentage movements in the price of the bond based on small movements inpercentage yield. We make no attempt to account for convexity.

Definition of “extreme” metric readings

A metric reading is defined as “extreme” if the metric reading is in the top or bottom decile of its historicalreadings. These “extreme” reading should cause the reader to pay attention. These metrics havereverted toward their mean values in the past.

PCA has created the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI) tocomplement our valuation-focused PCA Investment Market RiskMetrics. This measure of sentiment is meant to capture significantand persistent shifts in long-lived market trends of economic growthrisk, either towards a risk-seeking trend or a risk-aversion trend.

This paper explores:

What is the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI)? How do I read the indicator graph? How is the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI) constructed? What do changes in the indicator mean?

PENSION CONSULTING ALLIANCE, LLC • Investment Market Risk Metrics

PCA has created a market sentiment indicator for monthly publication (the PMSI – see below) tocomplement PCA’s Investment Market Risk Metrics.

PCA’s Investment Market Risk Metrics, which rely significantly on standard market measures ofrelative valuation, often provide valid early signals of increasing long-term risk levels in the globalinvestment markets. However, as is the case with numerous valuation measures, the Risk Metricsmay convey such risk concerns long before a market corrections take place. The PMSI helps toaddress this early-warning bias by measuring whether the markets are beginning to acknowledgekey Risk Metrics trends, and / or indicating non-valuation based concerns. Once the PMSIindicates that the market sentiment has shifted, it is our belief that investors should considersignificant action, particularly if confirmed by the Risk Metrics. Importantly, PCA believes the RiskMetrics and PMSI should always be used in conjunction with one another and never in isolation.The questions and answers below highlight and discuss the basic underpinnings of the PCA PMSI:

What is the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI)?The PMSI is a measure meant to gauge the market’s sentiment regarding economic growth risk.Growth risk cuts across most financial assets, and is the largest risk exposure that most portfoliosbear. The PMSI takes into account the momentum (trend over time, positive or negative) of theeconomic growth risk exposure of publicly traded stocks and bonds, as a signal of the futuredirection of growth risk returns; either positive (risk seeking market sentiment), or negative (riskaverse market sentiment).

How do I read the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI) graph?Simply put, the PMSI is a color coded indicator that signals the market’s sentiment regardingeconomic growth risk. It is read left to right chronologically. A green indicator on the PMSIindicates that the market’s sentiment towards growth risk is positive. A gray indicator indicates thatthe market’s sentiment towards growth risk is neutral or inconclusive. A red indicator indicates thatthe market’s sentiment towards growth risk is negative. The black line on the graph is the level ofthe PMSI. The degree of the signal above or below the neutral reading is an indication the signal’scurrent strength.

Momentum as we are defining it is the use of the past behavior of a series as a predictor of itsfuture behavior.

The PMSI is constructed from two sub-elements representing investor sentiment in stocks andbonds:

1. Stock return momentum: Return momentum for the S&P 500 Equity Index (trailing 12-months)2. Bond yield spread momentum: Momentum of bond yield spreads (excess of the measured

bond yield over the identical duration U.S. Treasury bond yield) for corporate bonds (trailing12-months) for both investment grade bonds (75% weight) and high yield bonds (25% weight).The scale of this measure is adjusted to match that of the stock return momentum measure.

The black line reading on the graph is calculated as the average of the stock return momentummeasure and the bonds spread momentum measure. The color reading on the graph isdetermined as follows:

1. If both stock return momentum and bond spread momentum are positive = GREEN (positive)2. If one of the momentum indicators is positive, and the other negative = GRAY (inconclusive)3. If both stock return momentum and bond spread momentum are negative = RED (negative)

What does the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI) mean? Why might it be useful?

There is strong evidence that time series momentum is significant and persistent. In particular,across an extensive array of asset classes, the sign of the trailing 12-month return (positive ornegative) is indicative of future returns (positive or negative) over the next 12 month period. ThePMSI is constructed to measure this momentum in stocks and corporate bond spreads. A readingof green or red is agreement of both the equity and bond measures, indicating that it is likely thatthis trend (positive or negative) will continue over the next 12 months. When the measuresdisagree, the indicator turns gray. A gray reading does not necessarily mean a new trend isoccurring, as the indicator may move back to green, or into the red from there. The level of thereading (black line) and the number of months at the red or green reading, gives the useradditional information on which to form an opinion, and potentially take action.

I Momentum as we are defining it is the use of the past behavior of a series as a predictor of its future behavior.

TOTAL PORTFOLIO SUMMARY As of December 31, 2015, the City of Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System (OPFRS) portfolio had an aggregate value of $386.8 million. This represents a ($1.1) million decrease in value, which includes ($15) million in benefit payments, over the quarter. During the previous one-year period, the OPFRS Total Portfolio decreased by ($57.3) million, including ($60) million in withdrawals during the period. Asset Allocation Trends The asset allocation targets (see table on page 80) reflect those as of December 31, 2015. Target weightings reflect the Plan’s evolving asset allocation (effective 3/31/2014). With respect to policy targets, the portfolio ended the latest quarter overweight Domestic Equity, Covered Calls, and cash, while underweight International Equity, Fixed Income, and Real Return. Recent Investment Performance During the most recent quarter, the OPFRS Total Portfolio generated an absolute return of 3.6%, gross of fees, underperforming its policy benchmark by (20) basis points. The portfolio has also underperformed its benchmark over the fiscal YTD and latest 1-year period, while continuing to outperform over the 3- and 5-year periods. The Total Portfolio outperformed the Median fund’s return over the most recent quarter, 1-, and 3-year periods, while underperforming the Median fund’s return over the fiscal YTD and 5-year period. Performance differences with respect to the Median Fund continue to be attributed largely to differences in asset allocation.

INVESTMENT MARKET RISK METRICS Takeaways

• The Fed hiked short term rates in December, as expected.

• Prices of all growth risk exposed assets (equities, credit) declined well into January.

• U.S. public equity, private equity, and real estate corporate based valuations are all at top decile levels, while non-U.S. equity valuations declined and are below historical average valuation levels (cheap relative to the U.S.).

• Commodity prices continued their five-year decline, and the 10-year breakeven inflation level remained near 1.5% in December – a level of anticipated inflation not seen since the 2008 global financial crisis.

• The PCA Market Sentiment Indicator remained neutral at month end. The spread element of

the indicator has been negative since last year; however, year-over-year equity returns remain slightly positive.

• A sustained year-over-year decline in U.S. equities could send sentiment into a tailspin. • The yield curve remains upward sloping but not as steeply as last year. • Low levels of global inflation, driven by commodity price declines, are weighing on markets.

Credit spreads for companies related to energy continued to expand, impacting other market sectors.

• The PCA Market Sentiment Indicator turned red at month end. The spread element of the indicator has been negative since last year; and, year-over-year equity returns followed suit in January. PCA will be looking to see if this sentiment signal is confirmed in coming months.

Any change in the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator needs to be confirmed for a couple of months prior to making any judgements. While not a market timing indicator, should this negative reading be sustained, clients should consider this to be a less favorable growth environment.

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW

US GDP growth for the fourth quarter (advanced estimate) has slowed since the fourth quarter, falling from 2.0% to 0.7%. Ggrowth during the fourth quarter was driven mostly by consumer spending in healthcare, which was partly offset by an increain imports, which is a subtraction in the GDP calculation. The unemployment rate dropped to 5.0% as of the quarter encontinuing its downward trend over the last 2+ years. After decreasing by 0.4 percent last quarter, the Consumer Price Index All Urban Consumers increased by 0.5% in the quarter. Commodities continued to decrease as they returned (10.5%) for tquarter. The US dollar appreciated against the Euro, British Pound, and the Yen this quarter. After floundering in the thquarter, US Equities were able to rebound strongly as they posted positive returns across the board. Global Equities performwell for the quarter, but a strong quarter was not enough to establish positive returns for the trailing 1-year period. The BUniversal Index returned (0.6%) during the quarter, but performance in the 1-year period managed to stay slightly positive 0.4%. Economic Growth

Real GDP increased at an annualized rate of 0.7 percent in the fourth quarter of 2015, which is the lowest rate of growth since the first quarter of 2015.

Consumer spending on health care, non-durable goods, and durable goods such as vehicles and recreational goods had the largest impact on GDP.

Business investment, residential investment, inventory investment, state and local government spending, and exports also contributed to an increase in GDP during the quarter.

Inflation The Consumer Price Index for All Urban

Consumers (CPI-U) increased by 0.5 percent in the quarter on an annualized basis after seasonal adjustment.

Quarterly percent changes may be

adjusted between data publications due to periodic updates in seasonal factors.

Core CPI-U increased by 2.1 percent for

the quarter on an annualized basis. Over the last 12 months, core CPI-U

increased 2.1 percent after seasonal adjustment.

Unemployment The US economy gained approximately

851,000 jobs in the quarter.

The unemployment rate dropped to 5.0% at quarter end.

The majority of jobs gained occurred in professional and business services, construction, health care, and food services and drinking places.

Glossary

Alpha

The premium an investment

earns above a set standard. This

is usually measured in terms of a

common index (i.e., how the

stock performs independent of

the market). An Alpha is usually

generated by regressing a

security’s exces s return on the

S&P 500 excess return.

Annualized Performance

The annual rate of return that

when compounded t times

generates the same t -period

holding return as actually

occurred from period 1 to period

t.

Batting Average

Percentage of periods a port folio

outperforms a given index.

Beta

The measure of an asset’s risk in

relation to the Market (for

example, the S&P 500) or to an

alternative benchmark or factors.

Roughly speaking, a security with

a Beta of 1.5, will have moved,

on average, 1.5 times t he market

return.

Bottom-up

A management style that de -

emphasizes the significance of

economic and market cycles,

focusing instead on the analysis

of individual stocks.

Dividend Discount Model

A method to value the common

stock of a company that is based

on the present value of the

expected future dividends.

Growth Stocks

Common stock of a company that

has an opportunity to invest

money and earn more than the

opportunity cost of capital.

Information Ratio

The ratio of annualized expected

residual r eturn to residual risk. A

central measurement for active

management, value added is

proportional to the square of the

information ratio.

R-Squared

Square of the correlation

coefficient. The proportion of the

variability in one series that can

be explaine d by the variability of

one or more other series a

regression model. A measure of

the quality of fit. 100% R-square

means perfect predictability.

Standard Deviation

The square root of the variance.

A measure of dispersion of a set

of data from its mean.

Sharpe Ratio

A measure of a portfolio`s excess

return relative to the total

variability of the portfolio.

Style Analysis

A returns -based analysis using a

multi-factor attribution model.

The model calculates a product’s

average exposure to particular

investment styles over time (i.e.,

the product’s normal style

benchmark).

Top-down

Investment style that begins with

an assessment of the overall

economic environment and

makes a general asset allocation

decision regarding various

sectors of the financial markets

and various industries.

Tracking Error

The standard deviation of the

difference between the

performance of a portfolio and an

appropriate benchmark.

Turnover

For mutual funds, a measure of

trading activity during the

previous year, expressed as a

percentage of the average total

assets of the fund. A turnover

rate of 25% means that the value

of trades represented one -fourth

of the assets of the fund.

Value Stocks

Stocks with low price/book ratios

or price/earnings ratios.

Historically, value stocks have

enjoyed higher average returns

than growth stocks (stocks with

high price/book or P/E ratios) in a

variety of countries.

US Equity Markets:

Metric: P/E ratio = Price / “Normalized” earnings for the S&P 500 Index

To represent the price of US equity markets, we have chosen the S&P 500 index. This index hasthe longest published history of price, is well known, and also has reliable, long-term, publishedquarterly earnings. The price=P of the P/E ratio is the current price of the market index (theaverage daily price of the most recent full month for the S&P 500 index). Equity markets are veryvolatile. Prices fluctuate significantly during normal times and extremely during periods of marketstress or euphoria. Therefore, developing a measure of earnings power (E) which is stable is vitallyimportant, if the measure is to provide insight. While equity prices can and do double, or get cut inhalf, real earnings power does not change nearly as much. Therefore, we have selected a wellknown measure of real, stable earnings power developed by Yale Professor Robert Shiller knownas the Shiller E-10. The calculation of E-10 is simply the average real annual earnings over the past10 years. Over 10 years, the earnings shenanigans and boom and bust levels of earnings tend toeven out (and often times get restated). Therefore, this earnings statistic gives a reasonably stable,slow-to-change estimate of average real earnings power for the index. Professor Shiller’s data andcalculation of the E-10 are available on his website at http://www.econ.yale.edu/~shiller/data.htm.We have used his data as the base for our calculations. Details of the theoretical justificationbehind the measure can be found in his book Irrational Exuberance [Princeton University Press2000, Broadway Books 2001, 2nd ed., 2005].

Developed Equity Markets Excluding the US:

Metric: P/E ratio = Price / “Normalized” earnings for the MSCI EAFE Index

To represent the price of non-US developed equity markets, we have chosen the MSCI EAFEindex. This index has the longest published history of price for non-US developed equities. Theprice=P of the P/E ratio is the current price of the market index (the average daily price of the mostrecent full month for the MSCI EAFE index). The price level of this index is available starting inDecember 1969. Again, for the reasons described above, we elected to use the Shiller E-10 as ourmeasure of earnings (E). Since 12/1972, a monthly price earnings ratio is available from MSCI.Using this quoted ratio, we have backed out the implied trailing-twelve month earnings of the EAFEindex for each month from 12/1972 to the present. These annualized earnings are then inflationadjusted using CPI-U to represent real earnings in US dollar terms for each time period. The ShillerE-10 for the EAFE index (10 year average real earnings) is calculated in the same manner asdetailed above.

However, we do not believe that the pricing and earnings history of the EAFE markets are longenough to be a reliable representation of pricing history for developed market equities outside of theUS. Therefore, in constructing the Long-Term Average Historical P/E for developed ex-US equitiesfor comparison purposes, we have elected to use the US equity market as a developed marketproxy, from 1881 to 1982. This lowers the Long-Term Average Historical P/E considerably. Webelieve this methodology provides a more realistic historical comparison for a market with arelatively short history.

RISK METRIC DESCRIPTION – Rationale for selection and calculation methodology

OPFRS Quarterly Report – 4Q 2015

Emerging Market Equity Markets:

Metric: Ratio of Emerging Market P/E Ratio to Developed Market P/E Ratio

To represent the Emerging Markets P/E Ratio, we have chosen the MSCI Emerging Market Free Index,which has P/E data back to January 1995 on Bloomberg. To represent the Developed Markets PE Ratio,we have chosen the MSCI World Index, which also has data back to January 1995 on Bloomberg.Although there are issues with published, single time period P/E ratios, in which the denominator effect cancause large movements, we feel that the information contained in such movements will alert investors tomarket activity that they will want to interpret.

US Private Equity Markets:

Metrics: S&P LCD Average EBITDA Multiples Paid in LBOs and US Quarterly Deal Volume

The Average Purchase Price to EBITDA multiples paid in LBOs is published quarterly by S&P in their LCDstudy. This is the total price paid (both equity and debt) over the trailing-twelve month EBITDA (earningsbefore interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) as calculated by S&P LCD. This is the relevant, high-level pricing metric that private equity managers use in assessing deals. Data is published monthly.

US quarterly deal volume for private equity is the total deal volume in $ billions (both equity and debt)reported in the quarter by Thomson Reuters Buyouts. This metric gives a measure of the level of activity inthe market. Data is published quarterly.

U.S Private Real Estate Markets:

Metrics: US Cap rates and Annual US Real Estate Deal Volume

Real estate cap rates are a measure of the price paid in the market to acquire properties versus theirannualized income generation before financing costs (NOI=net operating income). The date is published byNCREIF. We chose to use current value cap rate. These are capitalization rates from properties that wererevalued during the quarter. While this data does rely on estimates of value and therefore tends to belagging, (estimated prices are slower to rise and slow to fall than transaction prices), the data series goesback to1979, providing a long data series for valuation comparison. Data is published quarterly.

Annual US real estate deal volume is the total deal transaction volume in $ billions (both equity and debt)reported by Real Capital Analytics during the trailing-twelve months. This metric gives the level of activityin the market. Data is published monthly.

Measure of Equity Market Fear / Uncertainty

Metric: VIX – Measure of implied option volatility for U.S. equity markets

The VIX is a key measure of near-term volatility conveyed by implied volatility of S&P 500 index optionprices. VIX increases with uncertainty and fear. Stocks and the VIX are negatively correlated. Volatilitytends to spike when equity markets fall.

OPFRS Quarterly Report – 4Q 2015

Measure of Monetary Policy

Metric: Yield Curve Slope

We calculate the yield curve slope as the 10 year treasury yield minus the 1 year treasury yield. When theyield curve slope is zero or negative, this is a signal to pay attention. A negative yield curve slope signalslower rates in the future, caused by a contraction in economic activity. Recessions are typically precededby an inverted (negatively sloped) yield curve. A very steep yield curve (2 or greater) indicates a largedifference between shorter-term interest rates (the 1 year rate) and longer-term rates (the 10 year rate).This can signal expansion in economic activity in the future, or merely higher future interest rates.

Definition of “extreme” metric readings

A metric reading is defined as “extreme” if the metric reading is in the top or bottom decile of its historicalreadings. These “extreme” reading should cause the reader to pay attention. These metrics have revertedtoward their mean values in the past.

Credit Markets US Fixed Income:

Metric: Spreads

The absolute level of spreads over treasuries and spread trends (widening / narrowing) are good indicatorsof credit risk in the fixed income markets. Spreads incorporate estimates of future default, but can also bedriven by technical dislocations in the fixed income markets. Abnormally narrow spreads (relative tohistorical levels) indicate higher levels of valuation risk, wide spreads indicate lower levels of valuation riskand / or elevated default fears. Investment grade bond spreads are represented by the Barclays CapitalUS Corporate Investment Grade Index Intermediate Component. The high yield corporate bond spreadsare represented by the Barclays Capital US Corporate High Yield Index.

Measures of US Inflation Expectations

Metrics: Breakeven Inflation and Inflation Adjusted Commodity Prices

Inflation is a very important indicator impacting all assets and financial instruments. Breakeven inflation iscalculated as the 10 year nominal treasury yield minus the 10 year real yield on US TIPS (treasury inflationprotected securities). Abnormally low long-term inflation expectations are indicative of deflationary fears. Arapid rise in breakeven inflation indicates acceleration in inflationary expectations as market participantssell nominal treasuries and buy TIPs. If breakeven inflation continues to rise quarter over quarter, this is asignal of inflationary worries rising, which may cause Fed action and / or dollar decline.

Commodity price movement (above the rate of inflation) is an indication of anticipated inflation caused byreal global economic activity putting pressure on resource prices. We calculate this metric by adjusted inthe Dow Jones UBS Commodity Index (formerly Dow Jones AIG Commodity Index) by US CPI-U. Whilerising commodity prices will not necessarily translate to higher US inflation, higher US inflation will likelyshow up in higher commodity prices, particularly if world economic activity is robust.

These two measures of anticipated inflation can, and often are, conflicting.

Measures of US Treasury Bond Interest Rate Risk

Metrics: 10-Year Treasury Forward-Looking Real Yield and 10-Year Treasury Duration

The expected annualized real yield of the 10 year US Treasury Bond is a measure of valuation risk for USTreasuries. A low real yield means investors will accept a low rate of expected return for the certainly ofreceiving their nominal cash flows. PCA estimates the expected annualized real yield by subtracting anestimate of expected 10 year inflation (produced by the Survey of Professional Forecasters as collected bythe Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia), from the 10 year Treasury constant maturity interest rate.

Duration for the 10-Year Treasury Bond is calculated based on the current yield and a price of 100. This isa measure of expected percentage movements in the price of the bond based on small movements inpercentage yield. We make no attempt to account for convexity.

RISK METRICS DESCRIPTION – PCA Market Sentiment Indicator

What is the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI)?

The PMSI is a measure meant to gauge the market’s sentiment regarding economic growth risk. Growthrisk cuts across most financial assets, and is the largest risk exposure that most portfolios bear. The PMSItakes into account the momentum (trend over time, positive or negative) of the economic growth riskexposure of publicly traded stocks and bonds, as a signal of the future direction of growth risk returns;either positive (risk seeking market sentiment), or negative (risk averse market sentiment).

How do I read the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI) graph?

Simply put, the PMSI is a color coded indicator that signals the market’s sentiment regarding economicgrowth risk. It is read left to right chronologically. A green indicator on the PMSI indicates that the market’ssentiment towards growth risk is positive. A gray indicator indicates that the market’s sentiment towardsgrowth risk is neutral or inconclusive. A red indicator indicates that the market’s sentiment towards growthrisk is negative. The black line on the graph is the level of the PMSI. The degree of the signal above orbelow the neutral reading is an indication the signal’s current strength.

How is the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI) Constructed?

The PMSI is constructed from two sub-elements representing investor sentiment in stocks and bonds:

1.Stock return momentum: Return momentum for the S&P 500 Equity Index (trailing 12-months)

2.Bond yield spread momentum: Momentum of bond yield spreads (excess of the measured bond yieldover the identical duration U.S. Treasury bond yield) for corporate bonds (trailing 12-months) for bothinvestment grade bonds (75% weight) and high yield bonds (25% weight). The scale of this measure isadjusted to match that of the stock return momentum measure.

The black line reading on the graph is calculated as the average of the stock return momentum measureand the bonds spread momentum measure. The color reading on the graph is determined as follows:

1.If both stock return momentum and bond spread momentum are positive = GREEN (positive)

2.If one of the momentum indicators is positive, and the other negative = GRAY (inconclusive)

3.If both stock return momentum and bond spread momentum are negative = RED (negative)

What does the PCA Market Sentiment Indicator (PMSI) mean? Why might it be useful?

There is strong evidence that time series momentum is significant and persistent. In particular, across anextensive array of asset classes, the sign of the trailing 12-month return (positive or negative) is indicativeof future returns (positive or negative) over the next 12 month period. The PMSI is constructed to measurethis momentum in stocks and corporate bond spreads. A reading of green or red is agreement of both theequity and bond measures, indicating that it is likely that this trend (positive or negative) will continue overthe next 12 months. When the measures disagree, the indicator turns gray. A gray reading does notnecessarily mean a new trend is occurring, as the indicator may move back to green, or into the red fromthere. The level of the reading (black line) and the number of months at the red or green reading, gives theuser additional information on which to form an opinion, and potentially take action.

Momentum is defined as the persistence of relative performance. There is a significant amount of academic evidence indicating that positive momentum (e.g.,strong performing stocks over the recent past continue to post strong performance into the near future) exists over near-to-intermediate holding periods. See,for example, “Understanding Momentum,” Financial Analysts Journal, Scowcroft, Sefton, March, 2005.

2016 vs. 2015 ASSUMPTIONS

A comparison of PCA’s 2016 10-year compound asset class total return assumptions versus those in 2015.

1. We use a building block method for estimating arithmetic returns as detailed on page 3: (Inflation) + (Real Risk Free Rate of Cash) + (Premium over Real Risk Free Rate)

2. All risky-asset class return expectations (all asset classes that are not cash) are built as risk premiums over cash. Our expectations for long-term cash returns are 25 basis points below inflation at 2.00%.

3. Compound expected return estimates are the result of first estimating arithmetic average asset class returns and volatilities, which are then converted to geometric return estimates.

4. We project cash to return less than inflation over the next 10-year period.

5. Based on these assumptions, an allocation of 60% global public equities, 20% core bonds, 10% core real estate, and 10% private equity, has an expected long-term compound return of approximately 6.9%.

6. Mean-variance analysis is a reasonable starting point for portfolio analysis; other approaches are warranted.

Lord Abbett Investment Team Update

Robert I. Gerber Announces Retirement as CIO; Robert A. Lee Will Transition to Top Role

JERSEY CITY, NJ – February 4, 2016 − Lord Abbett & Co. LLC (“Lord Abbett”), an independent, privately held investment management firm, announced that Robert I. Gerber, Ph.D., Partner & Chief Investment Officer, will retire from the firm, effective June 30, 2016. As a result, Robert A. Lee, Partner & Deputy Chief Investment Officer, will assume the role of Chief Investment Officer on July 1, 2016. Mr. Gerber joined Lord Abbett in 1997, and was named a Partner in 1998. He came to the firm to build its taxable fixed-income capabilities, an important area wherein he achieved notable success. Based on the strength of his leadership, Mr. Gerber, in 2005, was given additional responsibility for overseeing and expanding the firm’s tax-free, fixed-income capabilities. In 2007, Mr. Gerber became Chief Investment Officer. In this crucial role, he has served as an outstanding leader for the firm’s investment professionals. Over the past nine years, Mr. Gerber diversified Lord Abbett’s capabilities across fixed income and equities, broadened the firm’s knowledge base, and introduced new tools and investment approaches, all of which have strengthened and elevated the overall investment organization. In the months ahead, Mr. Gerber will be working to ensure Mr. Lee’s successful transition to his new role as Chief Investment Officer.

M E M O R A N D U M Date: February 24, 2016 To: Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System (OPFRS) From: Pension Consulting Alliance, LLC (PCA) CC: David Sancewich – PCA Sean Copus – PCA Teir Jenkins – OPFRS Katano Kasaine - OPFRS RE: Fisher Investments – Contract Renewal Summary and Recommendation

PCA recommends that OPFRS renew its contract with Fisher before the current contract date of expiration. OPFRS contracts reserve the right for the Board to terminate the agreement, with or without cause, at any time upon 30 calendar day’s prior written notice.

Discussion In making this recommendation, PCA considered investment performance and recent organizational / personnel issues. PCA believes that there are no issues that should prevent a contract extension for this manager.

MSCI ACWI ex-US --- --- 3.3 -5.3 1.9 --- 0.9 --- ** Inception date reflects the month when portfolio received initial funding.

Since being retained as OPFRS’s active international equity manager in April 2011, Fisher has performed well, having strongly outperformed its benchmark, the MSCI ACWI ex-US index, over all time periods measured.

Organizational Issues

Since the last manager update memo in July 2015, there has been minimal turnover among research analysts at Fisher but no turnover among portfolio managers. Since being installed as one of OPFRS’s active international equity managers in 2011, one portfolio manager left the investment team, which occurred in 2013. Over the same period, Fisher has added 29 research analysts, while losing 11. Fisher’s company culture involves constant rotation of employees, which helps explain the relatively high number of analysts added since 2011. There has also continued to be no change to the Investment Policy Committee, which is responsible for

directing all of the firm’s strategic investment decisions. PCA does not see any material concerns with the Fisher organization at this time.

Investment Philosophy, per manager

Fisher Investment’s International Equity strategy utilizes a top-down investment process based on applying capital markets technology to the analysis of a wide range of economic, political, and sentiment drivers to formulate forecasts and develop portfolio themes. The firm attempts to exploit the structure of foreign markets and capitalize on country and sector/industry cycles as they come into and out of favor. The firm also seeks to add value at the security level, but believes individual security research is most effective when used to complement higher-level portfolio themes and characteristics rather than as the sole focus of the investment process. Fisher expects approximately one-third of the strategy’s performance will be attributable to each of the country, sector, and security decisions. Fisher also adheres to a strict application of portfolio management discipline such that it remains continuously cognizant of the composition of the relevant benchmark and the relative risks engineered into portfolios against the benchmark.

Investment Process, per manager

Fisher’s International strategy focuses on three basic decisions that are ultimately made by the Investment policy Committee based on research conducted by the Capital Markets Research and Securities Research teams. The process begins by using certain economic indicators, known as “drivers” in order to determine country and sector allocations based on risk and return expectations. These indicators are continuously monitored in order to recognize shifts and determine if the market has discounted them. Next, a prospect list of individual securities is created using a quantitative screening process to minimize risk and screen out securities with insufficient liquidity or solvency. Finally, The Investment Policy Committee then further narrows the prospect list based on fundamental research performed by the Securities Research Team.

The fundamental research process includes an outlier analysis where buy candidates are examined to ensure their revenue streams and lines of business are closely linked to the strategy’s top-down themes. Companies are then subject to a "strategic attribute" review where a company’s comparative advantages are identified. Examples of "strategic attributes" include niche market, consolidator, regional advantage, high market share, etc. Next, an attribute execution analysis is conducted to understand how the company’s management is exploiting their advantage. Stocks are subjected to a relative valuation analysis to understand the stock's current price relative to the market, its peers, and its history. Finally, the firm examines the risks, if any, to the company’s operations. Fisher looks for “red flags" like customer concentration, environmental concerns, poor labor relations, etc. Based on the above analyses the Investment Policy Committee selects stocks for the portfolio.

Stocks are sold based on three disciplines: strategic shifts in country or sector allocations that require the sale of securities, changes in the stocks fundamentals that cause them to shift from

the strategic attributes that originally warranted their purchase, and partial sales related strictly to portfolio management risk control.

M E M O R A N D U M Date: February 24, 2016 To: Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System (OPFRS) From: Pension Consulting Alliance, LLC (PCA) CC: David Sancewich – PCA Sean Copus – PCA Teir Jenkins – OPFRS Katano Kasaine - OPFRS RE: T. Rowe Price – Contract Renewal Summary and Recommendation

PCA recommends that OPFRS renew its contract with T. Rowe Price before the current contract date of expiration. OPFRS contracts reserve the right for the Board to terminate the agreement, with or without cause, at any time upon 30 calendar day’s prior written notice.

Discussion

In making this recommendation, PCA considered investment performance and recent organizational / personnel issues. PCA believes that the issues identified below do not warrant contract expiration for this manager.

Investment Performance (as of 12/31/2016)

Manager Mkt Value ($000) Asset Class Quarter 1 YR 3 YR 5 YR Since

Inception* Inception

Date** T. Rowe Price 38,315 Core -0.2 1.0 1.8 --- 3.4 5/2011

BC Aggregate Index --- --- -0.6 0.5 1.4 --- 3.1 --- ** Inception date reflects the month when portfolio received initial funding.

Since being retained as OPFRS’s core fixed income manager in May 2011, T. Rowe Price has outperformed its benchmark by 30 basis points since inception. T. Rowe Price has also outperformed over the most recent quarter, 1-, and 3-year periods by 40, 50, and 40 basis points, respectively.

Organizational Issues

Since being installed in 2011 as OPFRS’s core fixed income manager, there has continued to be zero turnover among T. Rowe Price’s core investment team. Some turnover among the large analyst team has occurred during 2015 but not more than in prior years. More importantly, no portfolio managers have departed or been added to the management team since T. Rowe

Price was obtained as the OPFRS core fixed income manager. PCA does not see any material concerns with the T. Rowe Price organization at this time.

Investment Process, per manager

T. Rowe Price believes consistent, long-term alpha generation and attractive risk-adjusted returns can be captured through exposure to diversified sources of return. T. Rowe Price begins its process with a combination of macro-economic analysis, credit analysis, and security selection research efforts. These factors are evaluated within a framework of T. Rowe Price’s fundamental and quantitative global fixed-income and equity research capabilities with accurate risk management as a control mechanism for decisions and allocations. The objective of the investment team is to construct a well-diversified portfolio based on the best investment opportunities identified by a dedicated fixed-income research team. T. Rowe’s extensive research effort allows them to identify bond pricing anomalies in a particular issuer’s valuation where valuation is divergent from others in the same industry, and with the same credit quality. Inefficiencies existing between sectors of the bond market and along the yield curve also can contribute to returns. Through active management, these mispricings, predicated on disciplined risk management processes and understanding of headline factors that may be causing the mispricing, present opportunities for positive returns in the long term.

The portfolio managers are responsible for implementation of the overall portfolio strategy and day-to-day risk management, ensuring that portfolios are within risk and investment guidelines and exposures are in line with targets. Security selection responsibility resides with the heads of the various sector teams, who manage their sector exposures within risk guidelines and look to add alpha versus sector benchmarks.

In order to identify when a relative value opportunity exists between sectors, or when to sell an individual security, the portfolio strategy and analyst team continually monitors sector and individual security valuations. Economic outlooks, price valuations, technical indicators, liquidity, and transactional costs are all included in these determinations. Analysts will identify and communicate liquidity issues or rating changes that affect the portfolio to the portfolio management team. If a bond is identified for sale for credit reasons, the team will talk to the analyst to ascertain the urgency of the situation. Then the team will discuss the best method of liquidation, devise a plan, and implement it. Most importantly, the decision makers will have input from all relevant parties—the analyst, portfolio manager(s), and trader(s). By reviewing a credit before purchasing, the team generally mitigates selling for credit reasons. Once a decision is reached on a position, traders execute the trade most advantageously contingent upon needs for speed, liquidity, or transaction cost economization.

Ms. Kasaine summarized the details of the proposed hearing procedures and invited the Board to amend it as they wish. She noted that financial hardship applicants who sent incomplete information on their hearing request forms would be contacted to affirm these applicants’ submitted information. Ms. Kasaine said her office would review the financial hardship cases with the provided information and provide the Board with its recommendation regarding the financial hardship claim. Ms. Kasaine added that retirees who requested hearings not related to financial hardship do not have any additional paperwork for submission to the PFRS Board and staff will not have any recommendation for Board consideration on these cases.

Public Speaker Raymond Miller said there is no provision in the City Charter for consolidation of member hearings. He said each member requesting a hearing has unique circumstances regarding their hearing requests and should be afforded individualized hearings before the Board. He addressed the matter of denial of claimant evidence regarding Resolution No. 6866 and asked what grounds would the Board base the denial to a claimant, and are those grounds available for examination prior to the claimant’s hearing. Member Oznowicz asked Mr. Miller where he received the notice of group hearing. Mr. Miller said it was stated in the agenda report on today’s agenda.

Public Speaker and ROPOA President Muszar presented reasons why the Board should postpone all proceedings and actions regarding recovery of overpayments scheduled to begin with the March 1, 2016 Member Pension Payments. He also spoke at length about the reasons the board should not approve Resolution No. 6880 in its present form.

The Board discussed the guidelines set forth in proposed Resolution No. 6880. Members Cooper and Oznowicz asked questions about how the planned hearings would be conducted based on these procedures. Members Cooper and Oznowicz believed further discussion on these hearing procedures is required.

MOTION: Member Oznowicz made a motion to suspend consideration of Resolution No. 6880 until the March 2016 Board meeting, second by Member Cooper.

Member Oznowicz said his motion would allow further expansion of the concerns presented by the ROPOA to be brought forth and utilized to assist staff with creating more practical hearing guidelines. President Johnson acknowledged Mr. Muszar’s views on Resolution No. 6880 and the hearing procedures but said the Board reliance on the ROPOA to recommend guidelines for hearing procedures is not merited and the board needs only to rely on its expert staff, which it has historically done in years past.

AMENDED MOTION: Member Oznowicz amended his motion as follows: Suspend consideration of Resolution No. 6880 until the February 2016 Board meeting, second by member Cooper.

The Board discussed how staff and the Board will review financial hardship cases, focusing on how the board and staff manage the information that retirees choose to submit to the staff. Also discussed was the financial hardship status evaluation in the case of non-liquid assets, such as family heirlooms and whether there is an expectation that such assets would possibly be included for liquidation regarding financial hardship.

Member Wilkinson stated that loan eligibility reviews focus on the individual’s ability to pay for their fixed liabilities with liquid assets, and that non-liquid assets are not considered when assessing a person’s ability to make payments. Member Cooper said if questions of such non-liquid assets aren’t considered in evaluations, perhaps they can then be removed from the financial hardship form. He believed this form should be rewritten because he thinks that a retiree who receives this form as it appears now and may qualify for a financial hardship would be discouraged from completing it and may choose not to do so. Member Cooper said he would prefer the board to be responsive to their members.

Member Oznowicz said he hopes a retiree that who comes before the board to discuss a financial hardship case, even if their financial hardship declaration is not complete, that the Board will still hear their case and not automatically turn down their case. Ms. Kasaine clarified that staff will be contacting retirees who submitted financial hardship declaration forms to clarify the information they submitted.

A call for the question of the substitute motion was made and a hand vote was taken. Motion failed.

Ms. Kasaine asked the Board for direction to schedule hearings for the retirees who have submitted hearing requests. President Johnson said the next board meeting should present a calendar showing the hearing dates.

H. New Business – No Report.

I. Open Forum – Public Speaker Robert Muszar provided an answer to a question he did not believe was answered to Member Daniel about communication to retirees regarding the financial hardship declaration form. He also criticized the financial hardship declaration form for its invasive use of questions that are likely not used for the evaluation of financial hardship. Mr. Muszar told the story of a previous financial hardship case he managed between a member and Ms. Kasaine which did not require an invasive form and was negotiated equitably.

J. Future Scheduling – The next PFRS Committee and Board meetings was scheduled for Wednesday, February 24, 2016

The meeting adjourned at 2:33 pm.

TO: Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System Board

SUBJECT: Resolution No. 6886 Amending Resolution No. 6866 To Change To June 1, 2016, the Implementation Date Of The Recovery of Overpayments

BACKGROUND

AGENDA REPORT

FROM: Katano Kasaine, Plan Administrator Oakland Police and Fire Retirement Systems

DATE: February 08, 2016

At its October 28, 2015 Board meeting, the Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System Board ("PFRS Board") adopted Resolutions No. 6866, which set forth a repayment plan for certain benefit overpayments corresponding to Holiday Pay and Shift Differential Pay ("SSD Pay"). March 1, 2016 was the date to initiate recovery of these overpayments, as set forth in the Resolution.

The PFRS Board has filed a cross-complaint in the Superior Court of Alameda County in matter number RG 15758831 seeking a judicial declaration as to the legality of recovering said benefit overpayments through deductions from future retirement benefit payments. The trial of the cross-complaint is scheduled to take place on March 18, 2016, with a decision expected to be issued within approximately 30 days.

In order to avoid potential duplication of staff efforts, depending on the Court's decision, staff recommends that the date to initiate the recovery of overpayments under Resolution No. 6866 be amended from March 1, 2016, to June 1, 2016.

RECOMMENDATION

Staff Recommends the Board adopt Resolution No. 6886 amending Resolution No. 6866 to change the date to June 1, 2016, rather than March 1, 2016, to implement the recovery of overpayments.

Respectfully submitted,
