Foreign Currency Risk – Deposits and Investments<br />
Foreign currency risk is the risk that changes in exchange rates will adversely affect the fair value of a deposit or an investment.<br />
The system does not have a formal deposit policy for foreign currency risk. The risk of holding investments in foreign currency is managed<br />
by engaging in currency overlay strategies. The maximum notional exposure of the fund to any single non-U.S. dollar developed market<br />
currency and any emerging market currency will be limited to 2% and 1% of the market value of the fund respectively. The system’s<br />
exposure to foreign currency risk at August 31, <strong>2011</strong>, is presented in the tables on the following pages.<br />
