The Combined Funds represent the assets of both active and retired public employees who participate in the defined benefit plans of three statewide retirement systems: Minnesota State Retirement System (MSRS), Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA), and Teachers Retirement Association (TRA).
The Combined Funds assets are allocated in public equity (domestic and international), fixed income, and private markets. Each asset class may be further differentiated by geography, management style and/or strategy. This diversification is intended to reduce wide fluctuations in investment returns on a year-to-year basis and enhance the fund’s ability to meet or exceed the actuarial return target over the long-term.
