E-mail for GASB questions: Pension Accounting at TMRS
Effective December 31, 2015, the long-term expected rate of return on TMRS pension plan investments is 6.75%. The pension plan’s policy in regard to the allocation of invested assets is established and may be amended by the TMRS Board of Trustees. Plan assets are managed on a total return basis with an emphasis on both capital appreciation and the production of income in order to satisfy the short-term and long-term funding needs of TMRS. The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments is determined by weighting the expected return for each major asset class by the respective target asset allocation percentage. The target allocation and best estimates of arithmetic rates of return for each major asset class are summarized in the following table:
Asset Class | Target Allocation | Long-Term Expected Real Rate of Return (Arithmetic) |

Global Equity | 35% | 7.7% |
