REPORT TO THE BOARD OF FIRE AND POLICE PENSION COMMISSIONERS

DATE: MARCH 16, 2017 ITEM: B.6.a FROM: RAYMOND P. CIRANNA, GENERAL MANAGER SUBJECT: FEBRUARY 2017 MONTHLY REPORT AND UPDATE

THIS REPORT IS PROVIDED FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES

DISCUSSION The February 2017 Monthly Report includes the following notable items:

1) Airport Police Transfer to Tier 6 and Technical Amendments to Administrative Code – In

anticipation that the Airport Safety Officers may transfer to our Plan as early as April, staff met with the Controller’s Office and the Information Technology Agency staff on February 16, 2017 to discuss the requirements needed in the City’s payroll system (PaySR). On February 22, 2017, the ordinance was approved by the City Council at its first reading and the second reading is scheduled for March 24, 2017. LACERS and LAFPP staff are preparing for a counseling session scheduled for March 29, 2017 for the Airport Safety Officers. There is currently one Airport Safety Officer participating in the Fire Department’s Drill Tower.

2) Proposed Financial Counseling Program – On April 6, 2017, staff will present to the Board the additional information that was requested on Four Square Financial Literacy Partners.

3) Pension Administration System Replacement – The issues and discrepancies found during the

prior build testing are being corrected. Staff will continue to test and validate these fixes. The issue concerning the method of calculating service credit in a leap year has been resolved. However, the initial “Go Live” date of the project has been pushed back from January 2018 to April 2018. To prevent similar issues from negatively impacting the project, Xerox and LAFPP staff will closely monitor the project requirements.

4) 2017 Fire Department Employee Member Board Election – The Notice of Intent packets have

been mailed by the Office of the City Clerk to eligible active Fire Department employee members to qualify as candidates for the ballot. The deadline for candidates to submit the Notice of Intent packets is March 17, 2017. Thereafter, the Office of the City Clerk will begin preparations to mail ballots to eligible voters.

5) Private Equity - The following private equity investments have closed since the last meeting

announcement:

On October 20, 2016, the Board, in closed session pursuant to Government Code Section 54956.81, approved a commitment of up to $25 million in the following alternative investment:

The Board approved the status of the two recommendations on October 2, 2014, leaving one in Progress. The one remaining active recommendation marked “In Progress” concerns the process that will be invoked when a potential conflict of interest arises with the City Attorney. This is being discussed by the Ad Hoc Committee – City Attorney on Engagement of Outside Counsel. The date this is expected to be completed and presented to the Board is contingent upon the work of the Ad Hoc Committee on Outside Counsel.

UPDATED PROJECTS

TECHNICAL AMENDMENTS TO ADMINISTRATIVE CODE In conjunction with the draft ordinance that will establish the dates and procedures for the transfer of Airport Police employees from LACERS to LAFPP, staff and the City Attorney have also worked together to prepare some technical amendments to the Administrative Code to clarify plan language/provisions and provide greater flexibility for members. The amendments will pertain to the following:

• Ensure that the inclusion of Airport Police in Tier 6 will not trigger the elimination of the 1% payment by the City of Tier 5 employee contributions as provided in Charter Section 1222.

• Late Tier 5 transfer election forms shall not be accepted. • Inclusion of Airport Police in the DROP plan provisions. • Clarify that the Board may contract with third-party administrators that provide or

contract for suitable health plans, including health care exchanges. • Remove references to special MOU health subsidies (this language is no longer

relevant as any impacted members are now eligible for a regular subsidy). • Clarify that retired members are eligible to be reimbursed for the basic/standard

Medicare Part B premium only (in accordance with current LAFPP practices). • Provide additional flexibility for pensioners who participate in the Health Insurance

Premium Reimbursement Program (i.e., retired members can be either the primary subscriber or a dependent on the plan for which they seek reimbursement; removed the requirement that members must live outside an HMO service area to provide more options for members who do not have access to an affordable PPO plan or those currently enrolled in LACERS’ plans).

It is also noted that LACERS has requested an amendment to their health plan provisions to state that effective December 31, 2017, any former employee retired from LAFPP shall be ineligible for enrollment in any LACERS health plans unless such former employee was enrolled in a plan administered by the Personnel Department on December 31, 1999. [UPDATE: The City Council approved the ordinance at its first reading on February 22. The second reading of the ordinance is scheduled for March 24.]

PENSION PERSPECTIVES – ACTIVE/DROP MEMBERS Staff has begun drafting the spring issue of the newsletter. All LAFPP staff have been asked to submit proposed topics and draft articles. The target distribution date is late March 2017. The proposed topics include:

• Pension benefit information in MyLAFPP • Requests for Contribution Letters or Divorce Calculation Letters • Pension contributions while at the Fire Drill Tower or Police Academy • DROP Program - Entering and Exiting • LAFPP’s funding status and other 2016 valuation results

[UPDATE: Section Managers and Executive staff have reviewed the newsletter. The newsletter is currently being reviewed by the General Manager. Thereafter, the newsletter will be forwarded to the graphics designer. The target distribution is scheduled in mid-March.]

PENSIONS DIVISION

AIRPORT POLICE TRANSFER TO TIER 6 Currently, sworn personnel of the Airport Department (“Airport Police”) are members of the Los Angeles City Employees’ Retirement System (LACERS). During labor negotiations with the Airport Police bargaining units, the City agreed to place on the November 8, 2016 State General Election ballot a Charter amendment that proposes certain retirement benefit enhancements for this group. Staff has worked with the City Attorney’s Office, outside tax counsel, CAO, and LACERS in reviewing the draft Charter amendment which would: 1) Enroll new Airport Police into Tier 6; 2) Allow current Airport Police to transfer into Tier 6 from LACERS at their own expense; and 3) Permit new Airport Police Chiefs to transfer into LACERS rather than participate in Tier 6. Additionally, staff worked with the Plan actuary to commission a study demonstrating the impact of allowing Airport Police to participate in Tier 6. On June 16, 2016, the Plan actuary completed the cost study showing the increases in normal cost rates for Airport Police Officers to enter Tier 6, utilizing a simplified method to estimate the cost differences. A follow-up study using a detailed methodology was completed on July 7. The proposed ballot measure was approved by City Council on July 1. On October 4, 2016, Staff met with representatives from the CAO’s office, Airports, LACERS, and City Attorney’s office to discuss the possible need to move up the transfer counseling for Airport Safety Officers currently assigned to Ontario International Airport. This group of approximately 30 employees is expected to attend the Fire Drill Tower in groups of 10 and their transfer counseling would need to occur in March 2017. The remaining 500 Airport Police would be counseled in groups later in 2017. The November 2016 ballot measure was approved by voters. On December 2, 2016, the County certified the election results and on December 13, 2016, the City Council adopted the results. On January 12 and 31, 2017, LAFPP Staff met to discuss the payroll and pension administration system changes needed for Airport Police transferring to our plan. On January 31, 2017, the City Council instructed the City Attorney to prepare and present all ordinances necessary to implement the measure. [UPDATE: LAFPP staff met with the Controller’s Office and Information Technology Agency (ITA) staff on February 16, 2017 and discussed the requirements needed in PaySR (the City’s payroll system) in anticipation of Airport Safety Officers that may transfer to our Plan as early as April. The City Council approved the first reading of the ordinance on February 22, 2017 and the second reading is scheduled for March 24, 2017. LACERS and LAFPP staff are preparing for the Airport Safety Officers counseling session currently scheduled for March 29, 2017.]

PENSIONS DIVISION

RFP FOR FINANCIAL PLANNING EDUCATION SEMINAR CATERING SERVICES At the December 15, 2016 Board meeting, staff requested authority to release a Request for Proposal (RFP) for catering services for the Financial Planning Education Seminars. The proposed contract would be for a three-year term. If approved, the RFP is scheduled to be released in mid-December, and the proposed deadline for responses from potential contractors would be early February 2017. On December 16, 2016, the RFP was posted on the LAFPP website and the City's contracting opportunities website (Business Assistance Virtual Network - BAVN). Emails were also sent to notify companies who had previously provided bids or services for the prior one-year contract. Responses to the RFP were due on February 1, 2017. Staff anticipates the evaluation of responses, cost information and a contract award recommendation will be presented to the Board in March 2017. [UPDATE: Staff received a total of 4 proposals and is evaluating the services and fees of each. Staff will present a recommendation to the Board at the March 16, 2017 meeting.] PROPOSED FINANCIAL COUNSELING PROGRAM Staff is conducting research to determine the scope and feasibility of offering individual financial counseling sessions to members. Members who attend one of the Financial Planning Education (FPE) seminars (for education only) would be given the opportunity to schedule a follow-up session with a financial planner for a personalized review of their financial situation. This would allow members to apply the education provided in the FPE seminar to take the next step and develop a comprehensive financial plan. Staff previously met with representatives of United Firefighters of Los Angeles City, Los Angeles Police Protective League, Los Angeles Firemen’s Relief Association, Los Angeles Police Relief Association, and Los Angeles Retired Fire and Police Association, to request their input on the individual financial counseling services. The representatives were supportive of the proposed services. The individual counseling sessions would be conducted through our current financial education consultant. The FPE seminar contract was awarded as a result of an RFP released in July 2015. At that time, staff requested to make a recommendation to award a financial counseling contract at a later date. The financial education and planning consultants would not be allowed to provide, sell or derive any income from the sale of any investment products to members. In addition, any advice to the member for certain investment choices should not affect or provide compensation to the advisor. Staff met with the City Attorney on May 27, 2016, to discuss the parameters of the proposed financial counseling program. Staff proceeded with the plan for a pilot study of the financial counseling program and to conduct focus group sessions with members to gather feedback that will assist staff and the contractor in the development of the program.

PENSIONS DIVISION

On September 6, 2016, eleven members participated in a focus group session and provided valuable feedback. The purpose of the focus group was to determine if the proposed program would be beneficial to members by addressing the questions and decisions they face as they transition into retirement. Information was presented on how the program would work and each participant was provided a personalized report similar to what will be provided as part of the final program. After reviewing their personal reports and providing suggestions, the participants agreed that the proposed program will be of great value to LAFPP members, even with the members picking up the full cost of the individual counseling session. On December 15, 2016, the Board awarded a contract for financial counseling services to Four Square Financial Literacy Partners. Staff is working with the City Attorney to draft a contract and liability waiver to proceed with the Financial Counseling Program. [UPDATE: At the February 22, 2017 meeting, the Board requested further information on Four Square Financial Literacy Partners. Staff will present the information to the Board on April 6, 2017.]

UNCHANGED PROJECTS MULTIMEDIA EFFORTS As part of the prior fiscal year Business Plan (FY 2015-16), staff began developing a library of informational videos that are now posted on the LAFPP website. These videos cover topics regarding pension benefits and other plan information. In April 2016, a new "Multimedia" page was developed on our website to present these videos along with future multimedia postings. The 2016-17 Business Plan includes a project to expand our multimedia efforts and the range of communications methods used to reach members and other stakeholders (Project #12). As part of this effort, staff is working with our website consultant to update the user’s experience by adding a filter to the Multimedia page. This filter, which will be applied to the video library in October 2016, will sort videos as they apply to Active, Retired, and General membership topics. Staff is working to livestream Board meetings internally to Department employees. Thereafter, staff will work with the Board to determine whether we post audio or video to the website, and whether it will be livestreamed or archived.

ADMINISTRATIVE OPERATIONS DIVISION

UPDATED PROJECTS

PENSION ADMINISTRATION SYSTEM REPLACEMENT The monthly requirements gathering sessions with Xerox and staff Subject Matter Experts from impacted business units continue in order to develop the specifications for the configuration and customization of the CPAS system. Weekly meetings with the project management team (LAFPP, Xerox, and LRWL consultant) are also being conducted to review and check on the progress of various deliverables, including planning documents, data mapping and conversion, hosting services, as well as the implementation of the new imaging solution to replace Documentum.

[UPDATE: The Defect-Repair build/rollout to fix the issues and discrepancies found during prior build testing was completed as scheduled. Staff will be testing and validating the fixes made as well as verifying the refreshed data in the system resulted from a recent data conversion. The issue regarding the method of calculating service credit in a leap year has been addressed. Xerox and LAFPP has agreed to share the cost of fixing the calculation methodology and closely monitor project requirements to prevent similar issues from negatively impacting the project. This issue has pushed back the initial “Go Live” date of the project from January 2018 to April 2018, which will result in additional costs to the Department due to the dedicated LAFPP staff assigned to the project.] 2017 FIRE DEPARTMENT EMPLOYEE MEMBER BOARD ELECTION LAFPP provides for the election of employee and retired Board members in accordance with the City Charter, Los Angeles Administrative Code (LAAC), Division 23, Chapter 5, Articles 5 and 5.5, and Board rules. On September 1, 2016, the Board approved changes to the LAAC election procedures, which then required City Council to adopt an ordinance reflecting the changes. The City Attorney’s Office prepared the ordinance and on December 9, 2016, the City Council approved the ordinance with Mayoral concurrence. Some of the key changes include no longer requiring signatures for the nominating petition and making the employee member election process more consistent with the retired member election process. On December 15, 2016, the Board authorized staff to administer the 2017 Fire Department Employee Member Board Election. Below are some key dates for the election: February 24, 2017 Latest date the Office of the City Clerk shall notify by mail all

employee members of the Fire Department of the impending Board seat vacancy and that candidates are being sought to run for election.

March 9, 2017 First day for candidates to file the Notice of Intent (to run for office)

packet at the Office of the City Clerk – Election Division.


March 17, 2017 Last day for candidates to submit the Notice of Intent packet to the Office of the City Clerk – Election Division, by 5:00 p.m., to qualify for the ballot.

April 21, 2017 Deadline for candidates to submit an Observers List to the Office

of the City Clerk – Elections Division, by 5:00 p.m. April 25, 2017 Election Day, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. All ballots must be received by

the Office of the City Clerk – Elections Division by 5:00 p.m. to be counted.

May 18, 2017 Board Meeting – Elections Results July 1, 2017 New five-year term begins for the Fire Department Employee

Member of the Board. [UPDATE: The Office of the City Clerk has mailed the Notice of Intent packets to eligible active Fire Department employee members to qualify as candidates for the ballot. After the March 17, 2017 deadline for candidates to submit the Notice of Intent packets to qualify for the ballot, the Office of the City Clerk will begin preparations to mail ballots to eligible voters.]

UNCHANGED PROJECTS PERFORMANCE METRICS As part of the Mayor’s “Back to Basics” philosophy, the Mayor has directed departments to submit performance metrics that will measure the effectiveness of the departments in key areas. Monthly, staff submits performance metrics and business plan project updates to Mayoral staff including data in following areas: payment of pension payments; disability applications; customer satisfaction; contractor disclosure; and investment benchmarks.

In addition, the General Manager has expanded the use of performance metrics to internally measure and track performance and assist management decision making, taking into consideration resource requirements needed to compile and analyze the data. These internal metrics are reviewed by management on a regular basis.

As part of the 2017-18 budget process, management has been asked to review all metrics to determine if they need to be changed or refined in any way for the Fiscal Year 2017-18. ‘SIDE A’ DIRECTOR’S AND OFFICER’S (D&O) LIABILITY INSURANCE \ While the City is statutorily required to indemnify Board members and staff acting in a fiduciary capacity, there are instances where the City can choose to not indemnify thereby obliging Board members or staff to defend themselves at their own expense. The City is not required to provide a legal defense to Board members or staff if:


• The defense would create a conflict of interest with the City; or • The act or omission involved is not within their scope of duties; or • The Board member or staff acted or failed to act because of actual fraud,

corruption, or malice; or • Criminal actions have been brought against the Board member of staff. (Note: The

City has the discretion to indemnify criminal actions, thereby potentially obliging Board members or staff to defend themselves at their own expense.

The California Government Code allows for pension boards to purchase liability insurance to bridge the risk exposure gap in cases where the City does not indemnify. In 2015, the Board authorized the General Manager to purchase an annual ‘Side A’ Director’s and Officer’s (D&O) liability insurance policy to cover only Board members and key executive staff. The LAFPP Side A D&O insurance policy is liability insurance payable to the Board members and key staff to cover defense costs and losses up to $10 million, in circumstances when the City chooses to not indemnify. The current policy covers the term 12/23/15 to 12/22/16 and was purchased for $33,500, a significant savings compared to a traditional fiduciary insurance policy which normally covers Board members, all staff, and Plan assets. Staff are currently working to secure quotes for a new policy with a new term starting 12/23/16. In the 2016-17 LAFPP Budget, the Board authorized up to $50,000 for this insurance policy and staff expects the policy cost to remain fairly flat. Staff will report to the Board when the policy has been executed and what the final cost was. As part of this insurance policy, a Waiver of Recourse endorsement is required that protects the insured against recourse by the insurer. Without this endorsement, those insured are not protected from personal liability. Staff expect the required endorsement fee to total $25 per insured, which would have to be paid by the insured individuals and not by System assets. Staff will collect this fee from the insured once the policy invoice has been delivered to LAFPP. A new policy effective 12/23/16 is now in place. Staff is working with the Board of Commissioners to collect fees associated with the Waiver of Recourse as addressed above.

HEDGE FUND OF FUNDS PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENTS2

1Marketing Cessation: The purpose of this policy is to prevent, and avoid the appearance of, undue influence on the Board or any of its members in the award of all contracts. In accordance with Section 9.0 of the

Investment Policy, from the time the search begins with the Board’s approval of the minimum criteria for the search until the search ends with the selection of the firm(s) to receive the contract(s), all direct marketing

contact with firms that meet the search criteria will be limited to meetings with the Consultant, information sent to the Consultant or Department, questions about the search directed to the Staff or Consultant, one meeting

at the Department’s office with Staff and any site visits. The Board members, Department Staff or Consultant will accept no entertainment or gifts of any kind from any firm qualifying for the search. This policy does not

prohibit contact with potential interview candidates at group social events, educational seminars, conferences, or charitable events so long as there is no direct marketing.

During the three months prior to the renewal of a contract with a firm currently under contract, the Board Members, Department Staff and Consultant will accept no entertainment or gifts from that firm until the contract

has been renewed or terminated by the Board. Firms who currently have contracts with the Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension System are allowed to continue contact related to the existing contract with Staff and

Consultant.

2Hedge Fund of Funds do not have contracts like our other managers. They have limited partnership agreements that do not have a fixed expiration date. They are on this list to include them in our regular three-year

manager review process.

*Expired contracts are listed in red. Expired investments contracts will remain on the list if the market cessation period is active and until a new contract is awarded.
