City Of Chino Study Session
The study session focused on a presentation regarding the potential establishment of a Section 115 trust for city pension and other post-employment benefit (OPEB) obligations. The discussion highlighted the benefits of having independent fiduciary oversight and the ability to customize investment portfolios compared to limited options available through CALPERS. Detailed analysis was provided on how such a trust could help manage liabilities, improve investment returns through diversified portfolios, and provide greater control over city assets to hedge against market volatility.
