The charter or mission statement of the CIR or other body or a brief description of how the CIR is tasked to address social and environmental concerns :
University response: The governance of the University’s investment portfolio and oversight of the 9 DSO investment portfolios is the responsibility of the USF Investment Committee. This Committee’s authority and duties are described in the USF Investment Policy adopted by the University Board of Trustees. Membership of the Committee, appointed by the Trustees, is influenced strongly by the independence structures recommended by the SEC and Sarbanes-Oxley bill. A copy of this Policy, adopted in December 2006, is available on the website. Foundation response: The investment function of the Foundation is governed by the Foundation Board and its Investment Committee. The Committee has the oversight responsibility of all investment matters including investor responsibility. As part of our due diligence process in evaluating new and current investments, we review our manager's policies on social and environmental responsible investing and hold them to a high standard with respect to the investments that are made on our behalf.
