This translates into great returns for those invested in the stock market. WCERS is pleased to report the Defined Benefit We’re on the Web!

Each year we aim to earn more than the assumed rate of return required by our Actuarial Funding Policy, which is currently 7.25%. When the fund performs better than the assumed rate of return, the fund’s assets will grow, which may increase the funding lev- el of the defined benefit plan. Assets in the defined benefit plan as of October @WCERS 1, 2016, were $ 883,861,879.00, and as of September 30, 2017, the assets grew to $923,073,290.00.
