Dear Selection Committee Members, I hope this finds you well. I would like to express my interest in a position of the Investment Board Member of the Pensions Agency. With around 15 years of experience in finance industry in Georgia and the UK and hands-on knowledge of macro, legal as well as corporate environment I believe I could strongly contribute towards Investment Board’s functions. Since my return to Georgia in 2014, I held management positions within the corporate banking and finance functions of the largest financial intuitions. Lately, as a CFO of Bank of Georgia Group I oversaw liquidity book of c. GEL 4bn+, made all investment and capital allocation decisions and managed reporting, budgeting, investor relations, tax and treasury operations of the bank. I am also well aware of the Georgian Law on Pensions as well as the local regulatory framework as I have been engaged with various entities in Georgia, including Business Association, NBG or ministries working on the Pensions Law and contributed with insights/comments and best practices while the law was being designed. Some of the specific examples of my achievements, relevant to this position, include:         Maximized yield on liquidity and investment book by c. 15% by broadening investment criteria within the existing risk profile of a bank; Utilized derivatives that were not used by the bank for hedging purposes. In the very first year, contribution from such overlays was c. 4% of overall PnL (c. GEL 15m); Improved cost to income by one percentage point (i.e. GEL 10m) within one year period; Redesigned the budgeting process which shortened the budgeting time cycle by c. 20%; Set-up a risk function and separated back and front office operations within the treasury to limit fraud, human error and at the same time avoid conflict of interest amongst investment/liquidity pool managers. Treasury operations delivered around 1/3rd of bank’s PnL in 2018; Led corporate business lines of the largest two banks in Georgia, eventually doubling portfolio within two years of operations. Therefore, have extensive knowledge of investable corporate entities and their operations; Participated and completed the largest publicly listed company de-merger process in Georgia within the 9 month period; Led the first ever Additional Tier 1 issuance from Georgia, completing the project successfully within a record 4 week period from the mandate; I believe I could add significant value to the Investment Board in delivering its objectives across the spectrum of responsibilities that it has, whether designing investment policy, performing monitoring functions of the agency, selection of an asset manager or a custodian to name the few. I have been at the forefront of Global markets, innovation, policy and regulatory framework setting well over a decade now, therefore I am confident that together with the fellow board members I will be able to deliver tangible results as part of the Agency’s Investment Board. I am attaching my resume for your consideration along with other required documents. Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me anytime. Thank you for your consideration, Davit Tsiklauri Mobile: +995 577 049494 Email: dtsiklauri@mba2008@london.edu

Hello recruiter, The following application has been submitted from execappointments.com Job title: Investment Board Member Job link: https://www.exec-appointments.com/job/1521473/investmentboard-member/ Recruiter: Georgia Pension Agency Application date: 10/04/2019 CV file: CV English 190407.docx Other information: Covering Message : Helsinki, April 8th 2019 To: The Selection Committee for Members of the Investment Board of the Pension Agency of Georgia I am applying for membership in the Investment Board. I find great interest in helping to build up the investment policy, operations and risk management for the important new organization. In my opinion, the early stages of setting up new operations are crucially important for the longterm success of a new pension plan. I believe that experiences from other government pensions funds can be of substantial benefit in this stage. I have extensive experience in designing and overseeing investment activities in various organizations, particularly in the public sphere. At present, I am the Chief Executive Officer of The State Pension Fund of Finland, which is a fund of 19.5 billion euros. From 2002 to 2010 I was Deputy CEO, responsible for investments and finance, of Finland’s Local Government Pensions Institution (Keva) which is presently Finland’s biggest pension fund. Apart from full-time jobs, I have been the chair or a member of investment committees of a number of institutions. At present, these include Aalto University, Foundation of Finnish Municipalities, Finnish Swedish Cultural Fund, Finnish National Gallery and Finnish National Theatre. Earlier in my career, I have had responsible roles in respect of government finances more generally in the Ministry of Finance where I have held, inter alia, the positions of Director General for Budget and Under-Secretary of Public Finance. Close international co-operation has been one part of my professional activities since early 1990’s when I started participating in various committees and working groups of the OECD and European Union. In my present role, international co-operation is a daily element. My doctoral thesis “Tax Incentives in Developing Countries and International Taxation” was published in 1991. I will be glad to provide further information and documents if needed and to share my thoughts in a possible interview or separately. Yours, Timo Viherkenttä Doctor of Laws, University of Helsinki CEO, The State Pension Fund of Finland

Jean-Frederic moved to Georgia in late 2013 as an entrepreneur and investor, where he set up and managed numerous successful ventures until his appointment as Senior Advisor to the Minister of Economy and Sustainable Development of Georgia in summer 2017. We have remained in close contact on a regular basis over these years, continuing our exchanges on both the global economic and investment environment. Jean-Frederic displays a stimulating ability to understand and assess the underlying trends shaping society and the economy with along-term perspective. I assess Jean-Frederic as curious by nature; intelligently questioning and challenging our economic and financial zeitgeist. During a recent trip to Georgia, I was pleased to meet Jean-Frederic in his current capacity at the Ministry of Economy. Among the many challenges faced by the Georgian economy we also discussed the low structural savings within the economic structure of the country. We both concur that adefined-contribution pension scheme along the Iines of the Pension Reform introduced in 2018, is a major step forward in developing a more resilient economic system. Jean-Frederic's excitement and enthusiasm for the Pension Reform and Pension Agency is contagious. Jean-Frederic strongly believes in the potential and the future of Georgia and would add value to the Investment Board of the Pension Agency, as an impartial board member with entrepreneurial skills to shape a functioning board and ensure proper procedures are adhered to. Jean-Frederic would be an excellent external communicator, representing the board both within Georgia and to international stakeholders, increasing the confidence and clarity around the Pension Agency as an institution. Jean-Frederic has a keen understanding and interest in matters of governance and control structures. But most important Jean-Frederic is a person of both moral and intellectual integrity who would fit well on the board of a state-based Pension Agency. Throughout my many years of exchanges with Jean-Frederic on our shared passion for investments, how to prioritise and structure them, Jean-Frederic showed a genuine passion and ability for identifying and assessing investment opportunities both as an entrepreneur and as a long-term investor. I hope that Jean-Frederic will be able to apply those valuable skills as a member of the Investment Board of the Pension Agency of Georgia. remain available to provide any further information, Best Regards, Henrik Nor n President &CEO Nordic Investment Bank Chairman of the Board: Investeringsforening Maj Invest (mutual fund app. 3 billion EUR under management) Chairman of the Board: Saga Private Equity (app. 4 billion EUR under management, institutional money)

Jean-Frédéric Paulsen, FCMA, CGMA Investment Board Selection Committee Ms. Natia Turnava, Mr. Ivane Machavariani, Mr. Davit Sergeenko Mr. Zurab Chiaberashvili, Mr. Zurab Lalazashvili Mr. Irakli Kovzanadze, Mr. Akaki Zoidze Pension Agency of Georgia SelectionCommittee@pensions.ge Dear Members of the Investment Board Selection Committee, Most pension schemes in the world face the challenge of mistrust from the wider public. This is particularly the case in Georgia where the collapse of many pension schemes has affected the public’s perception of pension funds. Pension scheme participants want their pension to be safe and reliable, and the Investment Board will need to work hard to strike a balance between assets & liabilities, improving the general understanding of how long-term savings work and ensuring that consumers’ fears are understood. I believe that my reputation and proven track record in Georgia can positively influence pension reform and public support of the agency. I strongly believe in the proposed reform and the longstanding economic benefits associated with it. I am equipped to contribute to the Investment Board based on the below skills and experience: - Strong accounting, finance and investment credentials (education & experience) o MSc Accounting and Finance, London School of Economics o Fellow (highest rank), Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (UK) o Supervisory Council Member (5-year tenure), TPFF asset management (500m$ AUM) o Proven success in elaboration and monitoring of investment policy o Successful multisectoral entrepreneur and investment management in Georgia - Recognised commitment to Georgia o Georgian citizen with 6-year to date continuous residence in Georgia o Full-time Senior Advisor to four consecutive Ministers of Economy of Georgia - Independent senior Board leadership experience o Chairman of the Board, International School of Economics at Tbilisi State University o Past successful multisectoral corporate board membership (IT, Pharma, FMCG) I look forward to a personal meeting to discuss how I can best contribute to the success of the pension agency and its investment strategy. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Olivier Rousseau olivierjpnrousseau@yahoo.fr www.linkedin.com/in/olivier-rousseau-52aa1918 www.fondsdereserve.fr 29 March 2019 11, rue de Solferino 75007 Paris – France Attention: The Selection Committee for the Investment Board, Pension Agency of Georgia Dear members of the Selection Committee, This is my application letter for a position at the Investment Board of the Pension Agency of Georgia. I was appointed on the management board of the French Pension Reserve Fund (FRR) by presidential decree in November 2011 (renewed in February 2018). In this capacity I have been running FRR’s activities, jointly with my other full-time colleague. Reflecting my financial markets experience my main areas of focus are investment policies, strategic and tactical asset allocation, asset manager selection, risk control and performance attribution. FRR currently has assets of €34.3 billion. My experience includes 11 years with BNP Paribas in capital markets activities and corporate and institutional banking and 2 years serving on the resident Board of directors of the EBRD. I also spent 7 years at the French Treasury in Paris and 5 years at the French embassy in Stockholm, which gave me a deep understanding of economic and financial policy formulation. In my current capacity at FRR I have been associated with the French technical assistance mission to the Pension Agency of Georgia. I view the building up of the funded pension system of Georgia as a very positive enterprise and my recent discussions with the involved parties in Tbilisi have reinforced my wish to contribute further. It would be a privilege and an honour to be appointed on the Investment Board of the Pension Agency of Georgia and you can be assured of my very strong motivation, including being ready to commit time well in excess of requirements. I am ready to provide you with references. Yours truly, Olivier Rousseau Attachements: Curriculum vitae Copy of my degrees (Graduate of the Ecole Nationale d’Administration, Paris, 1986 Master’s in Economics, University of Aix-Marseille, 1982 Master’s in Law, University of Aix-Marseille, 1981 Institute of Political Studies BA diploma, University of Aix-Marseille, 1979).
