Conn. Gen. Stat. § 3-13d

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision in the general statutes or elsewhere to the contrary, the Treasurer may invest as much of the state's trust funds as are not required for current disbursements in Connecticut mortgage pass-through certificates. As used in this section, “Connecticut mortgage pass-through certificate” means (1) a certificate evidencing ownership of an undivided interest in a pool of mortgage loans, each of which is secured by a first mortgage on real property located in this state improved by one-to-four-family residential dwellings or units, where such mortgage loans are assigned to a trust company or bank having the powers of a trust company within or without the state, as trustee for the benefit of the holders of such certificates, or (2) any Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation pass-through certificate or Federal National Mortgage Association securities backed by mortgage loans, each of which is secured by a first mortgage on real property located in this state improved by one-to-four-family residential dwellings or units; provided such mortgage loans are originated by any bank, trust company, national banking association, savings bank, federal mutual savings bank, savings and loan association, federal savings and loan association, credit union, or federal credit union authorized to do business in this state or by any lender authorized to do business in this state and approved by the federal Secretary of Housing and Urban Development for participation in any mortgage insurance program under the National Housing Act. In exercising his discretion to invest the state's trust funds in Connecticut mortgage pass-through certificates and in considering the yield on such investments, the Treasurer shall give preference to pools of mortgage loans which contain loans to persons who at the time of mortgage application are contributors to state pension and retirement funds included among the trust funds defined in section 3-13c or who have been past contributors to such funds and who continue to maintain a financial interest therein, and may consider furtherance of the public policy of increasing the amount of reasonably priced mortgage loans available to state residents. Nothing in this section shall prevent the Treasurer from investing state trust funds in mortgage pass-through certificates other than Connecticut mortgage pass-through certificates.

(c) Except in the event of an express repeal of this subsection, no pool of mortgage loans, the ownership of which is evidenced by Connecticut mortgage pass-through certificates, shall be subject to any tax imposed by the state if all of the outstanding Connecticut mortgage pass-through certificates respecting such pool were at any time owned by or on behalf of any one or more of the state's trust funds.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision in the general statutes or elsewhere to the contrary, the Treasurer may enter into contracts with any life insurance company authorized to do business in Connecticut under which any amounts held in the state's trust funds may be used to purchase pension funding contracts and contracts providing for participation in separate accounts or under which funds become a part of the general account of any such life insurance company.

(e) Notwithstanding any provision of the general statutes, neither the Treasurer, the Deputy Treasurer nor any acting Treasurer shall make a private equity or real estate investment without the approval of the Investment Advisory Council, for the balance of the Treasurer's term of office, on or after any of the following events: (1) The defeat of the Treasurer (A) in a ballot for the party nomination for Treasurer at a convention where said Treasurer was a candidate for nomination, (B) in a primary for nomination for said office where said Treasurer was a candidate for nomination, or (C) upon the completion of a recanvass of the returns from such primary under section 9-445 or 9-446 , whichever is later, (2) the defeat of the Treasurer (A) in the election for said office or (B) upon the completion of a recanvass of the returns from such election under section 9-311 , 9-311a or 9-311b , or (3) the resignation of the Treasurer.
