Corporate Advisory Committee

Purpose

NCTR recognizes the extreme importance of its Associate Corporate Members helping to sustain many of its core activities through payment of annual dues and sponsorship of many NCTR events. It is further recognized that there should be a vehicle for Associate Corporate Members to provide advice and counsel to NCTR’s governance process. The Corporate Advisory Committee was established to facilitate attainment of this objective.

Composition

The Corporate Advisory Committee shall be comprised of 12 Associate Corporate Members.

Term of Office

Each member shall be invited to serve a four-year term. Terms will be staggered such that the terms of three members will expire each year. No member shall serve two (2) consecutive terms.

Appointment Process

Each year, the current NCTR President shall select three (3) Associate Members to serve on the Corporate Advisory Committee. If there are additional vacancies on the Corporate Advisory Committee, the President may appoint new members to complete unexpired terms at any point during the year that the vacancy occurs.

Individuals appointed to the Corporate Advisory Committee may not hold a similar position in a comparable national public pension association during their term on the NCTR Advisory Committee; however, this does not preclude another individual in the same firm from holding such position.

Duties

At the minimum the members of the Corporate Advisory Committee will attend NCTR’s Spring Executive Committee meeting and serve as co-host of the Past Presidents’ Dinner at the Annual Conference. They may also be invited to attend other NCTR events during the year.

Fees

There will be a bundled fee to be a member of the Corporate Advisory Committee, which will be determined each year by the NCTR Executive Director. The fee may cover:

• NCTR annual dues for one year
• One Annual Convention registration
• Co-sponsorship of the Spring Executive Committee Meeting
• Co-sponsorship of the Past Presidents' Dinner
