61 | NOTES: | Bold indicates change from previous survey. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
62 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
63 | 1: This does not reflect the Judges I system closed in 1994: features include pay-as-you-go funding and a 3% assumed investment return | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
64 | 2: Legal agreement determines contribution level -- pegged to specified funded ratios | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
65 | 3 Ramping apllies only to the investment portion of the gain/loss; not to the non-investment component | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
66 | 4: 50% of "extraordinary" 2008/09 losses amortized over 30 years | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
67 | 5 System is now closed for non-Police but subject to ongoing litigation and court challenges | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
68 | 6 Amortization will revert to average future working lifetime, roughly 10 years, in event FR becomes < 100% | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
69 | 7 Extraordinary 2008 actuarial loss amortized over 30 years | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
70 | 8 Post-7/1/16 hires have option to elect to be in defined contribution ("DC") plan; to date, roughly 35% have elected DC | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
71 | 6% contribution will be made toward UAL for those in DC plan. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
72 | Additional state contributions may be required as 14% employer rate and 8% employee rate are below actuarial funding policy rate. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
73 | 9 Amortization payments increase at less than wage inflation; for San Jose General-2.75%; for San Jose Safety-2.50% | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
74 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
75 | Survey and related text will be posted on roederfinancial.com We can be contacted at (619) 300-8500 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
76 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
77 | FR = Funded ratio | G/L = actuarial gains/actuarial losses | "Layered" means a new amotization base is created each year. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
78 | POB = Pension Obligation Bond | DC = Defined Contribution | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
79 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
80 | Effective with the 2013 survey, the number of entities was reduced from 40 to 37, eliminating three small closed systems. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
81 | The amortization periods for assumption changes are often longer than for G/L and are not shown here. Often, there is a separate amortization policy applicable to benefit changes. |
