An 80% funded ratio is often loosely considered a satisfactory level, even as most employers formally aim for full funding.
Public pension-plan funding topped a key benchmark for the first time in tracking history during the second quarter, buoyed by surging financial markets, according to a report released in July.
An 80% funded ratio is often loosely considered a satisfactory level for pensions sponsored by state and local governments and other municipal entities, even as most employers formally aim for full funding — that is, enough money on hand to cover all existing workers and retirees for the next 30 years.
Milliman estimates aggregate returns for the plans tracked to be 4.26% for the quarter, while the overall annualized return for the year ending June 30 was 19.95%. As the group points out, that kind of return “significantly exceeds the expected long-term earnings assumptions” for plans it covers. As previously reported, many public pension plan administrators have been reducing their assumptions for returns, believing that lower, more conservative assumptions are safer. Among state pensions, the median assumed return in 2021 is 7.20%, down about 1 percentage point since 2000.

New 'medical freedom' law outlaws requiring COVID-19 vaccine to access public spacesNew Hampshire residents cannot be required to get a COVID-19 vaccine in order to 'access any public facility, any public benefit, or any public service' according to a new bill signed into law by Republican Gov. Chris Sununu. The so-called 'medical freedom' bill does not override state vaccine law, which 'requires that all children enrolled in any school, pre-school, or child care have certain immunizations to protect them and those around them from vaccine preventable diseases,' according to the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services. Other exceptions to the new law include correctional facilities, such as jails and prisons, where immunizations can be mandated 'when a direct threat exists,' as well as county nursing homes and medical facilities operated by the state.
