CalPERS: Notice of Intent to Award Contract to Creative Investment Research

WASHINGTON - May 31, 2019 - PRLog -- The California Public Employees' Retirement System (CalPERS or the System) is the nation's largest public pension fund with total fiduciary net position in the Public Employees' Retirement Fund (PERF) of $354 billion as of June 30, 2018.

According to the System, "CalPERS Investment Office seeks to establish a pool of service providers that CalPERS can engage on an as needed basis, to support project and ad hoc initiatives for all the Investment Office program areas, including each of the Asset Classes and support team. The Portfolio Assistance (Non-Fiduciary) Investment Consulting Spring-Fed Pool may be used by CalPERS for services including Sustainable Investments and Corporate Governance. Governance strategies are expected to earn excess return for the fund while driving market leadership in corporate governance initiatives. This requires access to timely, reliable, in-depth and complex analysis on both companies and industries. Analysis of this type must be of the highest caliber such as 'investment banking' research."

Creative Investment has been selected to participate in this pool of service providers and consultants.

According to William Michael Cunningham, Creative Investment's CEO and Economist,"We are delighted with this selection and look forward to providing our unique, high social impact investing analysis and highly accurate economic forecasting services to the Fund."

Creative Investment has been selected for multiple contracts with the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS). We were selected for the Corporate Governance Consulting Pool, Request for Proposal No. 2006-4066, and for the Diversity Consultant Pool, Request for Proposal No. 2010-5646.
