State and Local Pensions

Book Description
In the wake of the financial crisis and Great Recession, the health of state and local pension plans has emerged as a front burner policy issue. Elected officials, academic experts, and the media alike have pointed to funding shortfalls with alarm, expressing concern that pension promises are unsustainable or will squeeze out other pressing government priorities. A few local governments have even filed for bankruptcy, with pensions cited as a major cause. Alicia H. Munnell draws on both her practical experience and her research to provide a broad perspective on the challenge of state and local pensions. She shows that the story is big and complicated and cannot be viewed through a narrow prism such as accounting methods or the role of unions. By examining the diversity of the public plan universe, Munnell debunks the notion that all plans are in trouble. In fact, she finds that while a few plans are basket cases, many are functioning reasonably well. Munnell's analysis concludes that the plans in serious trouble need a major overhaul. But even the relatively healthy plans face three challenges ahead: an excessive concentration of plan assets in equities; the risk that steep benefit cuts for new hires will harm workforce quality; and the constraints plans face in adjusting future benefits for current employees. Here, Munnell proposes solutions that preserve the main strengths of state and local pensions while promoting needed reforms.

Updated for 2017! "Retirement Income for Illinois Fire and Police," written for the men and women in uniform, provides detailed but simple information on the benefits from each public safety pension system, Social Security, and public employee deferred compensation. Illinois police and fire professionals receive retirement income from a variety of sources, most of which differ from their private-sector friends and neighbors. Their pensions are regulated only by the state; there is no federal oversight or insurance. Social Security benefits may be affected by their police and fire earnings. Their deferred compensation is accumulated and paid out under different rules. Understanding the variations and unique situations is necessary to plan and execute a successful retirement. This book is a one-stop shop for retirement benefit information for Illinois state and local police officers and firefighters. Chicago, suburban and downstate, state police, Cook County, other counties, university and college officers, and small-town professionals in the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund. It's all here.The author then expands the scope to examine how public pension plans are structured and funded and discusses some of the "hot topics" in Illinois. How big of a cost-savings will come from the Tier 2 structure? Do police and fire personnel really not live as long as the rest of us? Will municipal bankruptcy endanger Illinois pensions? What can we all do to protect public pensions in Illinois? And more? This information, plus your own knowledge and experience in Illinois public safety, will greatly enhance your understanding of not only your benefits, but also the public pension issues faced by each department, union, employer and the citizens you protect.
