Actuarial Reports

Each year MCERA's independent actuary completes an actuarial valuation, which is presented to the Retirement Board. The actuarial valuation measures the current and projected assets and liabilities of the retirement system as well as the system's funded status. Based on the results the Retirement Board adopts new member and employer contribution rates for all participating employers for the upcoming fiscal year.

On a triennial basis, the actuary also conducts an experience study of the members of MCERA and makes recommendations to the Board on all economic and non-economic assumptions.
