Decision:
The Committee agreed the proposed strategic asset allocation for the Fund, and approved the updated ISS.
Minutes:
Mr Turner of Mercer took the Committee through this report. He explained the rationale and scope of the Phase 1 review, which focussed on formalising a plan to achieve the target allocation to the WPP sustainable active equities fund. There was also an objective to ensure that a clear and robust plan was in place to meet the Fund’s liquidity needs for covering regular pension payments and meeting private markets’ commitments, over the next two years. This was carried out with consideration for how potential strategy changes may assist the Fund in achieving its responsible investment objectives.
Mr Turner explained some of the potential strategy changes that were considered, and outlined the proposed changes to the strategic asset allocation and the Investment Strategy Statement (ISS) as a result of the review.
RESOLVED:
The Committee agreed the proposed strategic asset allocation for the Fund, and approved the updated ISS.
