NOT CONSIDERED 03/02/2012
Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:
"NEW SECTION. Sec. 1 A new section is added to chapter 28B.10
RCW to read as follows:
The boards of regents of the University of Washington and
Washington State University must adopt policies that govern investments
of university funds. The policies must be consistent with the uniform
prudent management of institutional funds act, chapter 24.55 RCW, and
must address investment objectives, asset allocation, investment
parameters and guidelines, and the delegation of authority over
investments. The policies must address potential personal conflicts of
interest under RCW 42.52.190 as well as potential institutional
conflicts of interest with the university's other enterprise and
research activities in accordance with applicable state and federal
laws. The policies must be available to the public. The boards of
regents of the University of Washington and Washington State University
also must provide for the preparation, at least annually, of a publicly
available investment performance report that describes asset
allocations and performance of investments."
Correct the title.
EFFECT: Refers to the "boards of regents of the University of Washington and Washington State University" (instead of the "regents of each state research university").
