Languid Summer for
Private Markets
PRIVATE EQUITY
With the public market
zig-zagging sideways,
private equity activity
slowed modestly. Fundraising
picked up in the quarter but is
slightly behind last year’s irst half. Company investments and exits
trended down, with the venture-
backed IPO market a bright spot.

HEDGE FUNDS/MACs
Event-driven hedge
funds were the quarter’s steadier contributors.
Emerging market-focused hedge funds fell but avoided the big losses of underlying indices. Rising rates should be a tailwind for managers. Callan’s MAC Style Groups strug-
gled and trailed a 60/40 benchmark.

The Callan DC Index™
fell 0.2% in the irst quar-ter, although it performed
better than the Age 45 Target Date

equity allocation fell for the irst time in seven quarters.

Inlation Year-Over-Year

Real GDP growth in the U.S. hit 4.1% in the second quarter of 2018, the strongest quarterly gain since 2014. Many indi-cators corroborate the story of a thriving American economy: low unemployment, robust consumer spending, elevated busi-
ness and consumer conidence, and growth in non-residential investment. However, a big contributor to growth was a surge in
exports, likely due to stockpiling ahead of tariffs imposed at the end of the quarter, which may not be sustained for long. Global growth is de-synchronizing, with signs of deceleration emerging in Europe, Japan, and China. Oil prices have rebounded from the lows of 2014, and inlationary pressures such as wages are gradually building. The Fed raised interest rates for the second time this year in June, and it is telegraphing two more hikes
before the end of 2018 and perhaps three in 2019. While the tax cuts at the end of 2017 (a form of stimulative spending by the federal government) are buoying consumer spending, we may be reaching a peak in the current cycle.
Expansions do not die of “old age”; elapsed time is not an eco-
nomic variable. In addition, the current expansion has seen one
of the slowest rates of GDP growth, an average of just 2.2%, compared to a typical expansion average of 3% or greater. That said, the current expansion is one of the longest on record, and it is the imbalances that can develop during long expansions
that ultimately lead to a correction. Diverging global growth, and
the resetting of monetary policy in the U.S. to return to “nor-mal” ahead of plans by other countries’ central banks, means higher interest rates in the economy with the strongest growth
and upward pressure on the U.S. dollar. A more expensive dol-
lar will make U.S. exports more costly, at a time of increased trade uncertainty following the imposition of tariffs. Higher inter-est rates mean higher borrowing costs, after a decade of cheap debt for those who could get it. The tight labor market poses another source of imbalance, with unemployment dipping to a generational low of 3.8% in May, employers facing challenges hiring talent, and wage pressures gradually building.
The second quarter was clearly another high point for the U.S. economy in the long rebound since 2009. U.S. exports surged 9.3% in the quarter, accounting for a fourth of total GDP growth. With growth weakening in American trading partners, the
increase in exports to them does not likely represent a surge in
demand but a shift in timing, which will show up in subsequent

quarters. The tax cut represents a potentially large iscal stimu-
lus, and consumers have certainly responded, driving con-
sumption spending 4% during the quarter and accounting for two-thirds of GDP growth. Business investment of the tax cut is mixed; equipment spending grew more slowly in the irst half of the year compared to 2017, while investment in structures surged at an annual rate of more than 13% in each of the irst two quarters. One surprise in the quarter was a drop in inventory
investment, which actually subtracted 1 percentage point from GDP. The upshot is that GDP growth could have been as high
as 5%, and the economy now has greater capacity to rebuild inventory, suggesting a boost to future growth.
Another surprise in the GDP report was a drop in residential
investment. The housing market has been a bit of a riddle as this long recovery has unfolded. The inventory of existing sin-
gle-family homes reached its lowest reading on record for the month of May (1.65 million). Inventory levels keep dropping, reaching a supply of 4.1 months in June while a 6-month sup-
ply is considered normal. Yet home prices are high and rising everywhere. The FHA reported that home price indices rose
year-over-year in the irst quarter in all 50 states and in each of the 100 largest metro areas. The number of homes worth less than their mortgage has dropped by 80% since 2011, which should lead to an increase in potential inventory. Three factors have weighed on the inventory of homes for sale. A substan-
tial number of single-family homes were converted to rental units starting in 2006. Second, Americans don’t move as much; mobility in 2017 dropped to a post-World War II low. Third, starts have been hindered for 10 years on the supply side, with high
timber and construction costs, a shortage of building sites, and restricted access to credit. Demand may be there, but builders
have been unable to put up enough homes.

Tough Quarter, but Long-Term Results Are Brighter
FUND SPONSOR
– The median fund sponsor in Callan’s database gained 0.9% in the second quarter.
– By fund type, Taft-Hartley plans (+1.4%) were the top per-formers; corporate plans (+0.6%) came in last.
– The dispersion of returns for funds by size was quite nar-row; small plans (under $100 million) rose 0.94% while large plans (more than $1 billion) were up 0.89% and medium plans grew by 0.87%.
– All fund types and sizes lagged a benchmark consisting of 60% S&P 500/40% Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate
Bond Index, which rose 2%. – Over the last year plans also trailed the benchmark, which
was up 8.3%. Endowments/foundations came close, while corporate plans (+6.7%) underperformed.
– Over longer time periods, plans advanced at rates closer
to that benchmark. The 60/40 benchmark rose 7.3% annu-
ally over the last 15 years. Endowments/foundations did best over that time period, up 7.6%, while Taft-Hartley plans were the laggards at 7.1%. Large plans (+7.7%) topped the benchmark, while medium and small plans reported returns
slightly below it.

– Plans continue to focus on managing an environment of ris-

desire for strong risk controls in anticipation of a late cycle market downturn.
– Some fund sponsors are looking for downside protection while others are seeking higher yield in less-eficient markets in order to reach return targets.

Callan Public Fund Database Average Asset Allocation (10 Years)
Source: Callan. Callan’s database includes the following groups: public deined beneit, corporate deined beneit, endowments/foundations, and Taft-Hartley plans.
Approximately 10% to 15% of the database constituents are Callan’s clients. All database group returns presented gross of fees. Past performance is no guarantee of future

– Still others want strong, transparent risk controls and lower
performance volatility while examining lower fee structures. – The debate continues about whether active or passive man-
agement provides investors with the right balance between
higher performance and lower costs. – Passive investing is primarily visible in equity asset classes,
including both large cap U.S. equity and non-U.S. equity.
– Some fund sponsors are considering new or additional investments in private assets including real estate, private
equity, and private credit.
– Topics that concern plan sponsors are rising interest rates
and the uncertain outcomes of tariffs with global trade partners. Despite these concerns, some plans will seek
enhanced returns at the expense of increased risk. – Corporate deined beneit (DB) plans are embracing de-risk-
ing (increasing ixed income and extending duration). They
are moving along their de-risking glidepath and working at
different stages of the process. Implementation of de-risking plans depends largely on interest rate movements this year.
– Return enhancement continues to be the focus of public plans and endowment and foundation funds. As endowments and foundations seek higher returns, asset classes such as global equity, non-U.S. equity, and real estate beneit. Risk and funded status for public plans are ongoing concerns.
– Deined contribution (DC) plans are evaluating different lev-
els of service offered by recordkeepers and shifting away from off-the-shelf target date funds (TDFs). Examination of managed account offerings on a standalone basis in order to improve participant outcomes and experiences is ongoing
and will continue into the future. – TDFs’ share of DC assets grew to 31.3% in the irst quar-
ter, marking another high for the category, according to the Callan DC Index™.

U.S. Equities
U.S. equities (S&P 500 Index: +3.4%) rose on a strong earn-
ings season and positive economic data. Energy was the best-
performing sector (+13.5%) as oil prices trended higher after the U.S. withdrew from the Iran nuclear accord.
Small cap (+7.8%) outperformed large cap (+3.6%) on trade war fears. Large cap companies derive a big portion of rev-
enues from foreign markets and are more negatively impacted by trade wars than domestically focused small cap irms.
Growth (+5.8%) continued to outperform value (+1.2%) due to the Consumer Discretionary (+8.2%) and Tech (+7.1%) sectors.
The concentration of returns within broad indices remains a concern. Excluding the performance of the FAANG stocks (Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netlix, Google), S&P 500 perfor-mance was negative.
Large Cap Trails Small Cap Amid Trade War Concerns
– Retaliatory tariffs hit the U.S. agriculture, auto, and indus-
trial metals sectors, among others. The ongoing decline
of U.S. export market share is exacerbating the impact on large caps, which may continue to face macro headwinds in the coming quarters.
Global Equity
– Small cap (+7.7% YTD) is outperforming large cap (+2.9% YTD) as investors view small companies as more insulated against potential trade wars/looming tariffs. S&P 500 com-
panies generate 38% of revenue overseas versus 20% for the S&P SmallCap 600.
– The rising dollar and concerns over the divergence between
the strong U.S. economy and slower global growth are also
driving investors to the relative safety of smaller companies.
Large Growth Continues to Dominate
– Large value trailed large growth by nearly 900 bps in the irst half of 2018 (-1.7% vs. +7.3%), driven by ongoing outper-formance of the Tech sector and tech-exposed Consumer Discretionary companies.
Concentration Risk
– FAANG stocks continue to drive an outsized proportion of returns within equity indices.
– Biotech represents half of the Health Care sector’s weight of the Russell 2000 Growth Index (12% vs. 25%), and many small growth managers have struggled in selecting
biotech names given the binary outcomes of research and depth of resources needed to do it well.

Non-U.S. / Global Equity
Non-U.S. markets ended in the red as trade war talk moved into
action. Although initial tariffs levied by the U.S. were targeted, retaliatory actions and supply chain disruptions broadened their
effects. – Growth outpaced value—although no factor category
showed signiicant strength. – Cyclical sectors were hurt later in the quarter as the prospect
of slower growth led to reduced expectations. – The U.S. dollar was up, hurting non-U.S. returns. The euro
and British pound were hit especially hard with the rise of populism and Brexit turmoil.
– Frontier markets were singed by Argentina (-42%) on con-
tinuing political unrest, severe drought, and a devaluing
currency.
– Emerging markets were among the hardest hit, with Latin
America taking the brunt of the sell-off. In May, Brazil’s cen-
tral bank unexpectedly left rates unchanged, while a trucking strike and growing concern about October elections weighed
on markets. The Brazilian real fell 14% in the quarter versus the U.S. dollar.
– China reversed a ive-quarter rally on concerns surrounding growing debt burdens, slower growth, and trade uncertainty.

Global Fixed Income
U.S. Fixed Income
Fixed income markets grappled with multiple issues, resulting
in continued volatility. Trade conlicts due to the imposition of tariffs, emerging market elections, and the rising U.S. dollar con-
tributed to the unstable environment.
U.S. rates rose in the second quarter and the yield curve contin-
ued its lattening trend.
Treasury Spreads Tightened
– The spread between the 2-year and 10-year ended at its lowest level (33 bps) in more than 10 years.
– The Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index fell 0.2%.
– Investment-grade (IG) corporates faced increased head-
winds during the quarter, dragging returns lower. Concerns
over potential trade wars and rising rates increasingly
weighed on IG credit despite rising earnings and revenues.
– High yield corporates (Bloomberg Barclays High Yield

– The impact of increased tariffs and iscal policy may lead to even higher levels.
– Only the recent strength of the U.S. dollar and a drop in energy prices have curtailed the dramatic rise over the past
year.
– With two more hikes forecasted for this year and three more next year, the curve is inching closer to inversion.
– While not an immediate cause of recession, an inverted curve has been a reliable signal of recession in the past.
Non-U.S. Fixed Income
Most Indices Fell in Second Quarter
– The Bloomberg Barclays Global Aggregate Bond Index
dropped 2.8%. – The ex-U.S. version of the Index fell even more, declining
4.8%. – Emerging market (EM) indices were especially hard hit (JPM
GBI-EM Global Diversiied Index: -10.4%). – For the last year, broad indices were narrowly positive but
EM indices were lower.
Uncertainty of Trade War May Have Biggest Impact
– Announced tariffs are not expected to have a meaningful impact on growth; however, the extent of the costs ultimately depends on the degree to which other countries counter.
– An OECD study that looks at the far larger shock of a 10% across-the-board increase in tariffs by the U.S., euro zone, and China inds that global GDP would fall by 1.4%.
– The more impactful result may be an increase in uncertainty, which tends to precede weaker economic activity.
– These effects will take time to ultimately play out and are even more dificult to quantify.

GLOBAL FIXED INCOME (Continued)

U.S. Returns Moderate; Interest in Overseas Markets Is High
REAL ESTATE
– U.S. core real estate returns continue to moderate and shift toward income. The limited appreciation that did occur in
the second quarter came from net operating income growth rather than further cap rate compression.
– The NCREIF Open End Diversiied Core Equity Index
rose 1.8% in the second quarter, while the Callan Real
Estate ODCE Style Group gained 1.6%. – Spreads remain relatively tight between core and value-add
due to large amounts of capital in both strategies chasing fewer available deals, combined with many investors seek-
ing to create core assets by using their non-core buckets to
buy and stabilize non-core properties.
– As private real estate valuations continue to test historical
highs, investors are looking at other sectors such as real
estate debt and REITs to access the best risk-adjusted returns from real estate. Both U.S. and non-U.S. REITs are trading at discounts to net asset value, indicating relative
value for public market securities compared to private real estate valuations.
– The EPRA/NAREIT Developed Index jumped 5.1% in the second quarter, versus the +4.5% return for the Callan
Global Real Estate Style Group. The EPRA/NAREIT
Develeped ex US Index increased only 0.6%, compared to the 0.4% gain for the Callan Global ex-U.S. Real Estate
Style Group. The NAREIT Equity REITs Index spiked
10.0%; the Callan U.S. REIT Style Group nearly matched
that with a 8.6% return. – Supply and demand fundamentals are balanced but peak-
ing. Supply is in check and aided by strict commercial real
estate lending standards. Demand continues on the back of synchronized U.S. growth. Transaction volumes have begun
to take a step back in recent quarters from current cycle peak levels but have yet to substantially affect pricing, as property remains expensive.
– The industrial sector performed the strongest (+3.4%), ben-
eiting as structural shifts in the economy, property markets, and consumer habits continue to dampen demand for tra-
ditional retail space. Ofice is performing as expected late
in the cycle (+1.7%), and tenant improvements and other capital expenditures are increasingly eroding cash low. Multifamily remains strong due to positive demographic trends, except for the Class A luxury segment in prime mar-kets such as New York.
– European real estate markets (ex-U.K.) are gaining momen-
tum due to strong fundamentals in major European cities and despite continued political concerns across the region.
– Value-add and opportunistic real estate owners and opera-
tors continue to see signiicant prospects for creating and selling core product to a robust market of buyers. Paris, Berlin, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Stockholm, and Madrid con-
tinue to see increased levels of investment activity. – Asian real estate products are seeing strong fundraising
momentum, with existing managers reaching target fund sizes and an increase in Asia-focused open-end funds.
– The Chinese government is implementing policies to
increase domestic growth and consumption, including sup-
port for the development of multi-family rental property, a rel-atively new concept in China. Over the summer, the Chinese
renminbi weakened against the dollar, due to monetary eas-
ing in China and global trade tensions, and more stringent

capital controls have increased the amount of capital look-
ing to invest within the country; investment activity remains steady in China.
– Other major markets such as Japan, Australia, South Korea,
and India continue to see investment activity across multiple
sectors.
– Infrastructure strategies are raising signiicant capital. Open-end infrastructure managers have secured substan-
tial new commitments this year. Infrastructure managers have reported mixed impact to their portfolios following the implementation of the latest tax law changes. The variety of closed-end infrastructure products continues to increase with new offerings in debt and emerging markets-focused strategies.

– Second quarter private equity partnership commitments
totaled $90.3 billion, with 329 new partnerships formed. The dollar volumes and number of funds both rose 36% from $66.5 billion and 242 in the prior quarter. (Source: Private
Equity Analyst) – For the irst half, 2018 is running $9 billion or 5% behind a

– During the quarter, Trump’s tough talk on trade upset mar-
kets, particularly abroad, while positive momentum from tax cuts and corporate earnings growth lifted U.S. markets.
– Beneiting from a strong corporate environment, par-ticularly in the U.S., event-driven strategies (Event-Driven
Multi, Distressed, Risk Arb) were the quarter’s steadier contributors.
– As iscal and monetary policies diverged globally, Global Macro gained 1.3% with its discretionary bets; however, Managed Futures (-0.3%) lacked any meaningful systematic trends.
– Actively managing risks in foreign markets hurt by a stronger dollar, Emerging Markets (-4.3%) suffered fewer losses than the underlying market indices.
– Long/Short Equity (-0.3%) went nowhere, on average, amid turbulent markets across geographies and styles.

Rates a Tailwind for Managers
– Rising short-term rates are now providing a tailwind to hedge fund performance with growing returns on cash and short-interest rebates.
– Higher rates, with accompanying inlation risks, are also likely to create more market volatility, leading to more trading
opportunities for active managers like hedge funds.
Multi-Asset Class (MAC) Strategies
Liquid alternatives to hedge funds have become popular among investors for their attractive risk-adjusted returns that are simi-larly uncorrelated with traditional stock and bond investments
but constructed at a lower cost.
– Callan’s Multi-Asset Class (MAC) style groups struggled with a tough top-down market environment, leading to lat or negative returns in the second quarter.
– CS Neuberger MARP (-0.5%) is an equal risk-weighted index of alternative risk factors (value, carry, momentum, and liquidity) across four capital markets (equity, ixed income, currency, and commodities) targeting 5% volatility.
– Equity Value (-4.6%) sank again after a similar loss in the irst quarter, relecting a continuing Tech-led growth story. Although Commodity Momentum (+9.5%) got traction, con-
licting economic signals around the world undermined other momentum factors.

Normally diversifying exposures of value and momentum risk factors were key detractors again this quarter. Relecting different vol targets and factor exposures, returns of under-lying Risk Premia managers showed signiicant dispersion over the quarter.

The Callan DC Index is an equally weighted index tracking the cash lows and performance of nearly 90 plans, representing more than one million
DC participants and over $135 billion in assets. The Index is updated
quarterly and is available on Callan’s website, as is the quarterly DC
Observer newsletter.
– The Callan DC Index™ fell 0.2% in the irst quarter, relecting widespread declines in global markets.
– But the DC Index outpaced the Age 45 Target Date Fund,
which lost 0.5%. – Since inception, the DC Index’s annual return of 6.2% has
trailed the Age 45 TDF by 76 basis points. – Driven primarily by participant inlows, DC plan balances
slightly increased by 0.1% during the quarter. Inlows (par-ticipant and plan sponsor contributions) added 0.3% to total growth, overcoming the 0.2% drop in returns.
– Over the long term, participant balances have increased an
average of 8.1% annually, with market appreciation contrib-
uting 6.2% and net cash lows adding the remainder. – U.S. ixed income experienced net inlows of 13.1% dur-
ing the period. Riskier assets like U.S. equity and company stock experienced signiicant outlows.
– For the quarter, nearly 70 cents of every dollar that moved within DC plans lowed to TDFs.
– Turnover (i.e., net transfer activity levels within DC plans) in the DC Index of 0.3% came in well below the historical average at 0.6% and was at its lowest level since the irst quarter of 2011.
– The Callan DC Index’s overall equity allocation fell for the irst time in seven quarters, ending at 70%, still slightly above the Index’s historical average (68%).
– TDFs’ share of DC assets grew to 31.3% during the quarter, another all-time high. The allocation to U.S. large cap equity
declined slightly from last quarter, but U.S. large cap contin-
ues to be the second-highest allocation, at 23.3%. – When TDFs are available in a DC plan, they hold a much
greater portion of assets (34%) than any other option.

ASSET ALLOCATION AND PERFORMANCE
Asset Allocation and PerformanceThis section begins with an overview of the fund’s asset allocation at the broad asset class level. This is followed by a topdown performance attribution analysis which analyzes the fund’s performance relative to the performance of the fund’s policytarget asset allocation. The fund’s historical performance is then examined relative to funds with similar objectives.Performance of each asset class is then shown relative to the asset class performance of other funds. Finally, a summary ispresented of the holdings of the fund’s investment managers, and the returns of those managers over various recent periods.

Quarterly Total Fund Relative Attribution - June 30, 2018
The following analysis approaches Total Fund Attribution from the perspective of relative return. Relative return attributionseparates and quantifies the sources of total fund excess return relative to its target. This excess return is separated into tworelative attribution effects: Asset Allocation Effect and Manager Selection Effect. The Asset Allocation Effect represents theexcess return due to the actual total fund asset allocation differing from the target asset allocation. Manager Selection Effectrepresents the total fund impact of the individual managers excess returns relative to their benchmarks.

Marathon Asset MgmtPeriod Ended June 30, 2018
Investment PhilosophyAt the heart of Marathon’s investment philosophy is the "capital cycle" approach to investment. This is based on the ideathat the prospect of high returns will attract excessive capital (and hence competition), and vice versa. In addition, theassessment of how management responds to the forces of the capital cycle - particularly whether they curtail investmentwhen returns have been poor - and how they are incentivized are critical to the investment outcome. Given the contrarianand long-term nature of the capital cycle, the investment philosophy results in strong views versus the market and longholding periods (5 years plus). The attractiveness of an individual security, therefore, should be evaluated within thistimeframe. The Fund’s inception date is May 2016.
Quarterly Summary and HighlightsMarathon Asset Mgmt’s portfolio posted a (2.00)% return forthe quarter placing it in the 58 percentile of the Non-U.S.Equity Database group for the quarter and in the 68percentile for the last year.
Marathon Asset Mgmt’s portfolio outperformed the MSCIACWI ex US IMI by 0.61% for the quarter andunderperformed the MSCI ACWI ex US IMI for the year by0.64%.

Equity Market Indicators
The market indicators included in this report are regarded as measures of equity or fixed income performance results. The
returns shown reflect both income and capital appreciation.
Russell 1000 Growth measures the performance of those Russell 1000 companies with higher price-to-book ratios and
higher forecasted growth values.
Russell 1000 Index is composed of the top 1000 domestic equities, representing 88% of the U.S. equity market
capitalization.
Russell 1000 Value measures the performance of those Russell 1000 companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower
forecasted growth values.
Russell 2000 Growth contains those Russell 2000 securities with a greater than average growth orientation. Securities in
this index tend to exhibit higher price-to-book and price-earning ratios, lower dividend yields and higher forecasted growth
values than the Value universe.
Russell 2000 Index is composed of the 2000 smallest stocks in the Russell 3000 Index, representing approximately 11% of
the U.S. equity market capitalization.
Russell 2000 Value contains those Russell 2000 securities with a less than average growth orientation. Securities in this
index tend to exhibit lower price-to-book and price-earning ratios, higher dividend yields and lower forecasted growth values
than the Growth universe.
Russell 3000 Index is a composite of 3,000 of the largest U.S. companies by market capitalization. The smallest company’s
market capitalization is roughly $20 million and the largest is $72.5 billion. The index is capitalization-weighted.
Russell Mid Cap Growth measures the performance of those Russell Mid Cap Companies with higher price-to-book ratios
and higher forecasted growth values. The stocks are also members of the Russell 1000 Growth Index.
Russell MidCap Value Index The Russell MidCap Value index contains those Russell MidCap securities with a less than
average growth orientation. Securities in this index tend to exhibit lower price-to-book and price-earnings ratio, higher
dividend yields and lower forecasted growth values than the Growth universe.
Standard & Poor’s 500 Index is designed to measure performance of the broad domestic economy through changes in the
aggregate market value of 500 stocks representing all major industries. The index is capitalization-weighted, with each stock
weighted by its proportion of the total market value of all 500 issues. Thus, larger companies have a greater effect on the
index.
Standard & Poor’s/Citi Growth Index is a composite of the firms in the S&P 500 Index which, based on three growth and
four value factors, exhibit stronger growth characteristics. The index is designed so that it represents roughly fifty percent of
the market capitalization of the S&P 500 Index. Generally, companies in the Growth Index have higher growth rates of
earnings, sales and return on equity than those in the Value Index. Like the full S&P 500 Index, the Growth Index is
capitalization-weighted.
199
Fixed Income Market Indicators
Bloomberg Barclays Aggregate Bond Index is a combination of the Mortgage Backed Securities Index and the
intermediate and long-term components of the Government/Credit Bond Index.
200
International Equity Market Indicators
Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) EAFE Index is composed of approximately 1000 equity securities
representing the stock exchanges of Europe, Australia, New Zealand and the Far East. The index is capitalization-weighted
and is expressed in terms of U.S. dollars.
201
Real Estate Market Indicators
NCREIF Open Ended Diversified Core Equity The NFI-ODCE is an equally-weighted, net of fee, time-weighted return
index with an inception date of December 31, 1977. Equally-weighting the funds shows what the results would be if all funds
were treated equally, regardless of size. Open-end Funds are generally defined as infinite-life vehicles consisting of multiple
investors who have the ability to enter or exit the fund on a periodic basis, subject to contribution and/or redemption
requests, thereby providing a degree of potential investment liquidity. The term Diversified Core Equity style typically reflects
lower risk investment strategies utilizing low leverage and generally represented by equity ownership positions in stable U.S.
operating properties.
NCREIF Total Index is an index composed of existing, investment grade, wholly owned and joint venture investments that is
limited to non-agricultural, income-producing properties including apartments, hotels, office, retail, R&D, and warehouses.
The current quarter’s index returns are subject to revision and therefore are considered preliminary until next quarter’s
returns are released.

Callan Databases
In order to provide comparative investment results for use in evaluating a fund’s performance, Callan gathers rate of return
data from investment managers. These data are then grouped by type of assets managed and by the type of investment
manager. Except for mutual funds, the results are for tax-exempt fund assets. The databases, excluding mutual funds,
represent investment managers who handle over 80% of all tax-exempt fund assets.
Equity Funds
Equity funds concentrate their investments in common stocks and convertible securities. The funds included maintain
well-diversified portfolios.
Core Broad International Equity Style This is a hybrid group incorporating the Core, Core Growth and Core Value style
groups. It incorporates managers having Core, Core Growth, or Core Value mandates. Portfolios are broadly diversified and
exposure to emerging markets and smaller capitalization stocks is limited.
Core Equity - Managers whose portfolio holdings and characteristics are similar to that of the broader market as
represented by the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index, with the objective of adding value over and above the index, typically from
sector or issue selection. The core portfolio exhibits similar risk characteristics to the broad market as measured by low
residual risk with Beta and R-Squared values close to 1.00 and combined growth and value z-score values close to 0.00.
International Equity - Non-U.S. - The Non-U.S. International Equity Database consists of separate account international
equity products that do not generally invest in U.S. equities.
Large Cap Growth - Managers who invest mainly in large companies that are expected to have above average prospects
for long-term growth in earnings and profitability. Future growth prospects take precedence over valuation levels in the stock
selection process. Invests in companies with P/E ratios, Price-to-Book values, Return-on-Assets values, Growth-in-Earnings
values above the broader market. The companies typically have zero dividends or dividend yields below the broader market.
Invests in securities which exhibit greater volatility than the broader market as measured by the securities’ Beta and
Standard Deviation. Portfolios have high growth z-scores and low value z-scores.
Large Cap Value - Managers who invest primarily in large companies believed to be currently undervalued in the general
market and whose shares are priced below the market compared to their peers. Valuation issues take precedence over near
term earnings prospects in the stock selection process. The Large Cap Value Style invests in companies with P/E ratios,
Return-on-Equity values, and Price-to-Book values below the broader market and the middle capitalization segment. This
style invests in securities with risk/reward profiles in the lower risk range of the medium capitalization market. Portfolios have
low growth z-scores and high value z-scores.
Middle Capitalization (Growth) - Managers who invest primarily in mid-range companies that are expected to have above
average prospects for long-term growth in earnings and profitability. Future growth prospects take precedence over valuation
levels in the stock selection process. The average market capitalization is approximately $7 billion with market
capitalizations between core equity companies and small capitalization companies. Invests in companies with P/E ratios,
Price-to-Book values, and Growth-in-Earnings values above the broader market as well as the middle capitalization market
segment. Invests in securities with greater volatility than the broader market and the middle capitalization segment as
measured by the risk statistics Beta and Standard Deviation.

Middle Capitalization (Value) - Managers who invest primarily in mid-range companies believed to be currently
undervalued in the general market. Valuation issues take precedence over near-term earnings prospects in the stock
selection process. The average market capitalization is approximately $7 billion with market capitalizations between core
equity companies and small capitalization companies. Invests in companies with P/E ratios, Return-on-Equity values, and
Price-to-Book value below the broader market and the middle capitalization segment. Invests in securities with risk/reward
profiles in the lower risk range of the medium capitalization market.
Non-U.S. Equity A broad array of active managers who employ various strategies to invest assets in a well-diversified
portfolio of non-U.S. equity securities. This group consists of all Core, Core Plus, Growth, and Value international products,
as well as products using various mixtures of these strategies. Region-specific, index, emerging market, or small cap
products are excluded.
Small Capitalization Generally benchmarked to an international small cap index (like MSCI EAFE Small or MSCI ACWI
ex-US Small or S&P/Citigroup EMI), International Small Cap managers focus on selecting smaller capitalization stocks.
They may pursue any combination of Growth, Value, or Core, or "Plus" strategies. Portfolios are diversified across countries,
and may have significant exposure to emerging markets.
Small Capitalization (Growth) - Managers who invest mainly in small companies that are expected to have above average
prospects for long-term growth in earnings and profitability. Future growth prospects take precedence over valuation levels in
the stock selection process. The Small Cap Growth Style invests in companies with P/E ratios, Price-to Book values, and
Growth-in Earnings values above the broader market, in addition to the small capitalization market segment. The companies
typically have zero dividends or dividend yields below the broader market. The securities exhibit greater volatility than the
broader market as well as the small capitalization market segment as measured by the risk statistics values Beta and
Standard Deviation. Portfolios have high growth z-scores and low value z-scores.
Small Capitalization (Value) - Managers who invest in small capitalization companies that are believed to be currently
undervalued in the general market. Valuation issues take precedence over near-term earnings prospects in the stock
selection process. The companies are expected to have a near-term earnings rebound and eventual realization of expected
value. The Small Cap Value Style invests in companies with P/E ratios, Return-on-Equity values, and Price-to-Book values
below the broader market in addition to the small capitalization market segment. This style invests in securities with dividend
yields in the high range for the small capitalization market. The Small Cap Value Style invests in securities with risk/reward
profiles in the lower risk range of the small capitalization market. Portfolios have low growth z-scores and high value
z-scores.
Special Equity (Small Capitalization) - Managers who hold portfolios with characteristics similar to that of the broader
market as represented by the Standard & Poor’s 600 or the Russell 2000 indices. Their objective is to add value over and
above the index, typically from sector or issue selection.
Fixed Income Funds
Fixed Income funds concentrate their investments in bonds, preferred stocks, and money market securities. The funds
included maintain well-diversified portfolios.
Core Bond - Managers who construct portfolios to approximate the investment results of the Bloomberg Barclays Capital
Government/Credit Bond Index or the Bloomberg Barclays Capital Aggregate Bond Index with a modest amount of variability
in duration around the index. The objective is to achieve value added from sector and/or issue selection.
204
Callan Databases
Core Plus Bond - Active managers whose objective is to add value by tactically allocating significant portions of their
portfolios among non-benchmark sectors (e.g. high yield corporate, non-US$ bonds, etc.) while maintaining majority
exposure similar to the broad market.
International Emerging Markets Fixed Income - The International Emerging Market Fixed-Income Database consists of all
separate account international fixed-income products that concentrate on newly emerging second and third world countries
in the regions of the Far East, Africa, Europe, and Central and South America.
Real Estate Funds
Real estate funds consist of open or closed-end commingled funds. The returns are net of fees and represent the overall
performance of commingled institutional capital invested in real estate properties.
Real Estate Open-End Commingled Funds - The Open-End Funds Database consists of all open-end commingled real
estate funds.
Other Funds
CAI Alternative Investments DB Database group representing managers within the alternative investments asset class.
This includes, but is not limited to, commodities and private equity.

New Research from Callan’s Experts
Handle With Extreme Care: Callan’s
Take on Cryptocurrencies | In this paper,
author Mark Wood provides a brief over-
view of cryptocurrencies and addresses
primary considerations for potential investors.
He describes why Callan does not currently recommend our clients
allocate to cryptocurrency investment strategies, and where we see
the greatest future potential in this space.
Risk Parity: Silver Bullet or a Bridge Too Far? | In this chapter
from the CFA Institute’s book “Multi-Asset Strategies: The Future of
Investment Management,” Callan’s Greg Allen describes risk parity
strategies, a category of investment strategies in which capital is
allocated across asset classes so that each contributes an equal
amount of volatility to the portfolio’s total volatility.
China A-Shares: Key Issues for Investors to Consider | China is
opening up its securities markets to more non-Chinese institutional
investors. In particular, expanded access to China A-shares creates
new opportunities for investors. But investing in China presents a
set of risks that range from the country’s slowing GDP growth to
stock trading suspensions. Although China A-shares present an
attractive opportunity, implementation is challenged by a shallow
manager universe and high fees.
June 2018 Regional Workshop Summary: Governance
Alpha | Investment committees face complex challenges oversee-
ing institutional investment funds. They must navigate myriad laws
and regulations, select the right managers and strategies, monitor
their portfolios, and ensure their funds can deliver the returns needed
for their beneiciaries. Governance describes the policies and prac-
tices established to guide these decisions. What if implementing the
astute governance required to meet these challenges also resulted
in better portfolio performance? At this workshop, Callan experts
described the most effective institutional fund governance practices
and explored new research that connects strong plan governance
with performance (i.e., governance alpha), and reviewed how in-
vestment managers it into this framework.
Quarterly Periodicals
Private Markets Trends | This newsletter offers the latest data on
activity in private equity fundraising, buyouts, venture capital, and
returns for this asset class.
Market Pulse Flipbook | A quarterly market reference guide cover-
ing investment and fund sponsor trends in the U.S. economy, U.S.
and non-U.S. equities and ixed income, alternatives, and deined contribution.
Capital Market Review | This quarterly publication provides analy-
sis and a broad overview of the economy and public and private
market activity each quarter across a wide range of asset classes.

agers alongside relevant benchmarks over the last two decades.
Real Estate Indicators: Too Hot to
Touch or Cool Enough to Handle? |

an understanding of prevailing market dynamics, have helped sig-
nal when the institutional real estate market is overheated or cooled.

Disclosures
List of Callan’s Investment Manager Clients
Confidential – For Callan Client Use Only Callan takes its fiduciary and disclosure responsibilities to clients very seriously. We recognize that there are numerous potential conflicts of interest encountered in the investment consulting industry and that it is our responsibility to manage those conflicts effectively and in the best interest of our clients. At Callan, we employ a robust process to identify, manage, monitor and disclose potential conflicts on an on-going basis. The list below is an important component of our conflicts management and disclosure process. It identifies those investment managers that pay Callan fees for educational, consulting, software, database or reporting products and services. We update the list quarterly because we believe that our fund sponsor clients should know the investment managers that do business with Callan, particularly those investment manager clients that the fund sponsor clients may be using or considering using. Please note that if an investment manager receives a product or service on a complimentary basis (e.g. attending and educational event), they are not included in the list below. Callan is committed to ensuring that we do not consider an investment manager’s business relationship with Callan, or lack thereof, in performing evaluations for or making suggestions or recommendations to its other clients. Please refer to Callan’s ADV Part 2A for a more detailed description of the services and products that Callan makes available to investment manager clients through our Institutional Consulting Group, Independent Adviser Group and Fund Sponsor Consulting Group. Due to the complex corporate and organizational ownership structures of many investment management firms, parent and affiliate firm relationships are not indicated on our list. Fund sponsor clients may request a copy of the most currently available list at any time. Fund sponsor clients may also request specific information regarding the fees paid to Callan by particular fund manager clients. Per company policy, information requests regarding fees are handled exclusively by Callan’s Compliance Department.
