California InvestmentsCalPERS is one of the largest investors in California - providing jobs, services, and a financial boost to the State's economy.
We recognize the significant investment opportunities that are present in California and have allocated some of our portfolio for direct California investments. Typically measured in dollars, these investments not only benefit our members, but also State and local economies.
The CalPERS Nationwide Single Family Housing Program and Member Home Loan Program, and our private equity investments through limited partnerships that are either headquartered in the State or have charters to invest in California, are just a few examples of programs designed to provide superior risk-adjusted returns for the System and invigorating support for the State's economy.
As of October 31, 2009, approximately 10.3 percent of CalPERS total assets are invested in California. The following breakdown illustrates our investments in California.
