This publication lists the name and value of each investment that TRS held in its six investment programs at the closing of the fiscal year. Cash, receivables, and collateral from securities-lending transactions are assets of TRS but not of the investment programs; therefore, they are not included in this report. TRS’ investments are described briefly below: The Pension Fund consists of U.S. and international equities and fixed-income instruments, with smaller allocations made to private equity and real estate investments. It contains the City’s contributions toward TRS members’ retirement allowances (pension reserves) and members’ contributions to the Qualified Pension Plan (QPP). It also includes the assets of the Fixed Return Fund, an investment option for members that provides a guaranteed rate of return; the rate is set by the New York State Legislature in accordance with applicable laws. The Diversified Equity Fund invests primarily in U.S. equities. The fund may also invest in international equities and other investments that may exhibit fixed-income characteristics. The objective is to achieve a rate of return comparable to the return of the broad equity market. The Stable-Value Fund invested in Guaranteed Investment Contracts (GICs), wrapped fixed-income securities, and other stable-value investment vehicles.
