  • System assets totaled over $18.5 billion on a market basis.
  • The investment rate of return for Fiscal Year 2015-16 was 1.18 percent, which is less than our actuarial assumed rate of return of 7.5 percent. However, over the 3- and 5-year periods, the System’s return was 7.49 percent and 7.42 percent, respectively.
  • An Asset Liability Study was completed by the Plan’s investment consultant, RVK, which was used by the Board to help establish the appropriate asset allocation for the Fund.
