Placement Agent Policy
SWIB has hired StepStone Group to advise SWIB in evaluating investments in the private equity marketplace, and to manage existing investments. SWIB believes that StepStone Group has very comprehensive coverage of the universe of opportunities available to SWIB and, together, SWIB and StepStone Group work to perform all necessary due diligence before SWIB makes any new investments. SWIB recognizes that many private market fund managers use a placement agent to identify sources of capital, which could be located anywhere in the world. SWIB, however, never hires a placement agent to find investments, and SWIB never pays any fees to a placement agent. If, however, SWIB is contacted by a placement agent or a registered lobbyist regarding a potential investment or if a placement agent is otherwise involved in a fund investment, SWIB has a number of institutional controls in place to ensure full reporting of any potential conflicts of interest and to ensure that no SWIB board member or staff person benefits personally from any SWIB investment. All of SWIB’s investments are made within the context of SWIB’s fiduciary responsibility to the funds it manages.
