FUND STRATEGIES<br />
Return and Risk<br />
The Health Care Fund’s performance objective is to earn a long-term rate of return that exceeds the return<br />
of the Health Care Fund policy benchmark within an appropriately constrained risk framework. The table<br />
shows expected returns for 2010 along with its ranges. These are the ‘beta’ returns expected from each<br />
asset class, without regard to over- or under-performance relative to the benchmarks.<br />
