Operating Portfolio Update• Bond markets, in general, experienced a relatively flat quarter as future
inflation concerns, budget troubles, nuclear crisis, and Middle East unrest placed various pressures on the market.
• While short-term bond yields remain low, we’ve seen yields on those with maturities greater than one year increase as investors demand a higher return for holding against all of the above mentioned challenges.
• The City’s Aggregate Cash Balance fluctuates over the course of the year due to seasonal property tax receipts and subsequent spend-down; balances reached their high point last quarter and are now beginning their natural drawdown to fund operations. The portfolio is considered to be postured in a moderate risk stance by the Investment Committee (p. 6).
• Duration is a measure of how much a portfolio changes in value (volatility) when interest rates change. Shorter durations are less volatile while longer durations are more volatile. The current duration measure is 2.56, down from 3.19 at September 30th, 2010. This means that the portfolio is more defensive against a general increase in rates (p. 7).

Operating Portfolio Update (cont’d)
• Quality is a measure of the creditworthiness of a bond as recognized by the major rating services (i.e. Moody’s, Standard & Poors), with Treasuries the safest. The portfolio’s average credit quality is of investment grade (p. 8).
• Sectors are the means by which bonds are classified (i.e. Governments, Corporates, Mortgage Backed Securities) (p. 9).
• Manager Overview provides the category in which each money manager is included as well as information about the firm (p. 10).
• Portfolio performance compares individual manager performance relative to a benchmark; active returns have dominated respective benchmarks since program inception (p. 11).
• The portfolio is structured according to guidelines provided in the Investment Policy Statement; each month the portfolio is measured to ensure compliance. You can see that the portfolio was in compliance in all categories at the end of the most recent quarter (p. 12).
• Investment Committee members (p. 13).• Glossary of terms (p. 14).

Bond Market Overview
Despite a relatively flat market in bonds over the last two quarters, the portfolio has benefitted from broad gains in bonds over the past one year period.

We’ve seen a shift higher in rates recently as bond markets sold off with improvements in the economy. Changes were felt most in government bonds and in those with maturities greater than one year. This made for some slight downward pressure, but the portfolio’s shortened duration,
helps shield against such environments.

Performance Summary
March investment performance came in at 0.09% vs. 0.02% on the benchmark. This brings the portfolio to positive 0.63% for the quarter and 0.35% for the Fiscal Year, while the benchmark is
0.22% positive and negative 0.22% respectively. The Core Plus segment has contributed most as allocations to higher-yield and corporate bonds outpaced the broad market averages that tend to
have more Treasury exposure. Credit spreads held steady for the month, and remain slightly elevated against longer-term averages.

Glossary of Terms• Benchmark – An index used to compare the relative performance of a portfolio; it
should share many of the characteristics of the portfolio itself (credit quality, duration, sector allocation, etc.) and represent a feasible alternative to active management.
• Duration – A measure of how much a security will fluctuate in value when interest rates change. For example, a bond with a duration of 5.0 could be expected to decline in value by 5% for a 1% increase in interest rates. Lehman Aggregate Bond Index – A high quality index that is representative of the overall bond market. It is comprised of government, mortgage-backed, corporate, and asset-backed securities with a maturity of more than one year.
• Emerging Market – Bonds issued by countries whose economies are growing rapidly and modernizing, but not considered fully developed. They include Brazil, Russia, India, China, and Mexico, and while considered more risky than developed market bonds compensate investors with higher yields and often increased credit worthiness.
• High Yield – Bonds with a credit rating below Baa3 (Moody’s) or BBB- (Standard & Poors) that carry higher yields than investment grade bonds to compensate investors for the greater risk of default (failure to pay principal and/or interest when promised).
• MBS – Mortgage Backed Securities are mortgages that are bundled together and sold to investors, with cash flows representing homeowners’ monthly mortgage payments.
• Yield Curve – A graph that plots the yields of U.S. Treasury bond across the maturity spectrum. A ‘normal’ yield curve is upward sloping; that is, yields that increase as maturities lengthen.
