F.S. 112.662
112.662 Investments; exercising shareholder rights.
(1) As used in this section, the term “pecuniary factor” means a factor that the plan administrator, named fiduciary, board, or board of trustees prudently determines is expected to have a material effect on the risk or returns of an investment based on appropriate investment horizons consistent with the investment objectives and funding policy of the retirement system or plan. The term does not include the consideration of the furtherance of any social, political, or ideological interests.
(2) Notwithstanding any other law, when deciding whether to invest and when investing the assets of any retirement system or plan, only pecuniary factors may be considered and the interests of the participants and beneficiaries of the system or plan may not be subordinated to other objectives, including sacrificing investment return or undertaking additional investment risk to promote any nonpecuniary factor. The weight given to any pecuniary factor must appropriately reflect a prudent assessment of its impact on risk or returns.
(3) Notwithstanding any other law, when deciding whether to exercise shareholder rights or when exercising such rights on behalf of a retirement system or plan, including the voting of proxies, only pecuniary factors may be considered and the interests of the participants and beneficiaries of the system or plan may not be subordinated to other objectives, including sacrificing investment return or undertaking additional investment risk to promote any nonpecuniary factor.
(4)(a) By December 15, 2023, and by December 15 of each odd-numbered year thereafter, each retirement system or plan shall file a comprehensive report detailing and reviewing the governance policies concerning decisionmaking in vote decisions and adherence to the fiduciary standards required of such retirement system or plan under this section, including the exercise of shareholder rights.

2. All other retirement systems or plans shall submit their reports to the Department of Management Services.
(b) By January 15, 2024, and by January 15 of each even-numbered year thereafter, the Department of Management Services shall submit a summary report to the Governor, the Attorney General, the Chief Financial Officer, the President of the Senate, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives that includes a summary of the reports submitted under paragraph (a) and identifies any relevant trends among such systems and plans.
(c) The Department of Management Services shall report incidents of noncompliance to the Attorney General, who may institute proceedings to enjoin any person found violating this section. If such action is successful, the Attorney General is entitled to reasonable attorney fees and costs.
(d) The Department of Management Services shall adopt rules to implement this subsection.
(5) This section does not apply to individual member-directed investment accounts established as part of a defined contribution plan under s. 401(a), s. 403(b), or s. 457 of the Internal Revenue Code.
