A brief description of the socially responsible investment option for retirement plans:
USF has several vendors who provide a variety of investment options for retirement plans. Several have options that are socially responsible. For example, 1) Valic offers three options: - Valic offers three options: - USF Supplemental TSA 403(b): Global Social Awareness Fund (Pinebridge Investments) and Socially Responsible Fund (SunAmerica) - State of Florida Deferred Compensation 457(b): Calvert Social Investment Equity A; 2) ING offers the Neuberger Berman Socially Responsive Fund and 3) TIAA-CREF offers the CREF Social Choice account and the TIAA-CREF Social Choice Equity fund. The Social Choice account is a balanced portfolio, consisting of two asset classes, Stocks and Bonds. The Social Choice Equity fund normally invests at least 80% of its assets in equity securities. Both give special consideration to having a screen to eliminate investments that are not considered socially responsible.
