5 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Louisiana School Employees Retirement System ended the first quarter of 2008 with a market value totaling $1,509.6 million. The System s assets decreased by $109.7 million during the three-month reporting period. The decrease consisted of $91.8 million in investment losses combined with $17.9 million in net withdrawals. As of March 31, 2008, 47% of the System s assets were allocated to domestic equities, 12% to foreign equities, 28% to fixed income, 7% to real estate, and 6% to cash. As of March 31, 2008, the System s two private equity investments totaled $11.3 million, representing nearly 1% of the total assets. The Retirement System is benchmarked to a Policy Index consisting of 54% to domestic equities, 10% to international equities, 30% to fixed income and 6% to real estate. The domestic equity target allocation will be reduced to 50% once the System's new private equity investments near the targeted allocation of 4% of the overall assets. The Total Composite returned negative 5.7% during the first quarter of 2008, lagging the negative 5.4% return of the Policy Index. During the first quarter, large cap manager C.S.
