The
Public Fund Survey is intended to promote sound public retirement
system policies and administration by increasing transparency
and understanding of the public retirement system community.
More than 85 percent of all state and local government pension
assets and members in the U.S. are represented in the Public
Fund Survey. Survey data is taken primarily from retirement system
annual financial reports, and also comes from actuarial valuations,
benefits guides, and interviews with retirement system staff
members. |
