REGULAR AGENDA
REGULAR
600. General Services Department
Bogdahn Consulting [LLC] To Present Investment Review Report For The Quarter
Ended March 31, 2007.
Mr. David West, CF A, Bogdahn Consulting, UC, 340 West Central Avenue, Suite 300,
Winter Haven, Florida: distributed copies of the 'City of Winter Springs General
Employees' Defined Benefit Plan and Trust, March 2007' booklet.
Discussion ensued on the current Manager, Trusco Capital Management.
REGULAR
601. General Services Department
Bogdahn Consulting [LLC] To Provide Status Report Of Investment Managers And
Custodial Bank Transition.
Discussion of Fifth Third Bank.
Chairman Sardo commented, "Hopefully on the Meeting of the 24th [July 2007] we will
say that the transition is complete. So, at this point you are saying that 'yes', but for
some investment contract issues." Mr. West replied, "Right. The whole issue right now,
the whole process lies with the attorney and the review of the Investment Management
contracts. Everything else is good to go."
Discussion.
Chairman Sardo asked, "What would be the total time that we are un-invested at this
point?" Mr. West replied, "Basically, no time on investment, bottom line. The - Sun
Trust investments or the Trustco (Capital Management] Investments are all co-mingled
funds, so those will be liquated and simultaneously the cash will go into the accounts as
previously established. So, the Investment Managers will be prepared and they can begin
investing that cash - virtually same day, once those assets are transferred over. So,
bottom line answer, we should not be un-invested, except for the period of time that it
takes for each of the new Managers to get the money to work in accordance with their
strategy and - their target portfolios."
Discussion on un-invested time.
Mr. West reiterated, "By 'un-invested', I mean not invested in equities. - The money is
invested; there is no un-investment period." Mr. West continued, "We're using the
overnight sweep vehicles, so, we will be earning the equivalent of money market rates in
an unbroken manner."
Further discussion.
