State Pension Systems Status
January 27, 2026 | Pension Analysis
The IFO published a new research brief that provides a summary of investment performance and funded status for the two state pension systems. The brief shows that SERS and PSERS have out-performed their investment return assumptions over 3-, 5- and 10-year periods and increased their respective funded status to nearly 70% (SERS) and 67% (PSERS). The document also provides an update on active membership by pension plan type following the enactment of Act 5 of 2017.
