State Compensation Insurance Fund: investments.
Summary
Existing law requires the board of directors of the State Compensation Insurance Fund to invest and reinvest, from time to time, all moneys in the State Compensation Insurance Fund in excess of current requirements in the same manner as is authorized in certain provisions applicable to private insurance carriers. Existing law prohibits the board from investing or reinvesting in certain investments, including real estate and call options on common stock. This bill would authorize, only until January 1, 2025, the board to invest or reinvest, an aggregated maximum of 20% of the moneys that are in excess of the admitted assets over the liabilities and required reserves, in specified investments, including the stock of certain corporations, specified mortgage-related investment instruments, and in the stock of a federal home loan bank. The bill would require the Department of Insurance to submit to the Legislature by January 31, 2019, a report that assesses the benefit and risk of the State Compensation Insurance Fund's equities investment history by measuring the volatility and total return of the fund's investment portfolio, as specified.
