Subject: Official Information request - Pension Fund Return

 

Dear Christchurch City Council,

My name is Matteo Madrigali, and I am reaching out on behalf of PitchBook
Data's research team.
I am currently seeking updated quarterly performance data from your
pension plan’s alternative asset holdings for the following date(s):
1Q2010 through the most recent available report.

Thank you in advance for the time you take in sending me the documents,
and if there is another person or distribution email I should resend this
to, please let me know.
Below follows the formal request.

On behalf of PitchBook Data, Inc., under the Freedom of Information Act, I
request a copy of the quarterly public records from 1Q 2010 through the
most recent available report for the following information, preferably in
Excel or PDF format.

1. Names and vintage years of all private equity, venture capital,
mezzanine, distressed, real estate/REIT, debt and infrastructure
partnerships in each fund's portfolio.
2. Commitments made to each partnership.
3. Contributions drawn down since inception.
4. Distributions made to each Pension Fund to date by each individual
partnership.
5. Net Asset Value of each partnership.
6. Internal rates of return (IRRs) for each partnership with and without
the use of credit facility. Please note if the IRRs are not net.
7. Investment multiple (TV/PI) for each individual partnership.
8. The dollar amount of “total management fees and costs paid” for each
individual partnership.
9. Date as of which all the above data was calculated.
10. Names of all alternative asset partnerships partially and fully sold
by the Pension Funds, including date of sale.
11. For each fund, please indicate whether or not the fund uses
Subscription Credit Facilities.

I also request a copy of any documents which contain some or all of the
following information:
12. Names of all hedge fund holdings (including hedge fund of funds) in
Christchurch City Council Pension Fund's portfolio.
13. Month by Month Market Value for each hedge fund holding (including
hedge fund of funds) since Christchurch City Council Pension Fund's
initial investment up to the most recent available report.
14. Month by Month Contributions to each hedge fund holding (including
hedge fund of funds) since Christchurch City Council Pension Fund's
initial investment up to the most recent available report.
15. Month by Month Returns (net of fees) earned by Christchurch City
Council Pension Fund for each hedge fund holding (including hedge fund of
funds) since initial investment up to the most recent available report.

If there are any fees for searching for, reviewing, or copying the
records, please inform me before you task the request. If you deny all or
any part of this request, please cite each specific exemption you think
justifies your refusal to release the information and notify me of appeal
procedures available under the law.

Yours faithfully,
Matteo Madrigali
