Thanks Wynne.


Ontario’s public service pension plan records 10.8 per cent return in 2017

Ontario’s public service pension plan ended 2017 with an annual investment return of 10.8 per cent, which helped it maintain its funded status at about 97 per cent.

The Ontario Pension Board (OPB), which administers the plan, says net investment income during the year amounted to $2.5 billion and net assets grew to $26.4 billion by the end of the year.

The return came as OPB continued a strategy of shifting assets from public to private markets last year.

This included increasing its infrastructure portfolio by 15.8 per cent, private equity portfolio by 53.5 per cent and real estate portfolio by 18.1 per cent.

Overall, public market investments, which include public market equity, fixed income and cash, returned 13.3 per cent for the year.

To me 97% of funded status means 3% below funded status. So in other words, it lost 3% or failed to achieve 3% of its target Who picks up the 3%?

This is how Walter wishes he could talk in real life - but he's scared to.

Needs to be anonymous in order to speak his mind.

Typical of the white nationalists

Congress quietly formed a committee to bail out 200 pension funds
By Simon Black

Boston College estimates the nation’s 1,400 multiemployer plans (corporate) are facing a $553 billion shortfall. And around one-quarter of those are in the “red zone,” meaning they’ll likely go broke in the next decade or so.

And it doesn’t even begin to address the real problem – the $7 trillion funding gap faced by the government’s own pensions.

Nazis are always afraid.

That's the source of their authoritarian zeal.

just look at Sears.

if you have a pension via a private corp you are screwed if they say you are screwed.

Nazis are always afraid.

That's the source of their authoritarian zeal.
It is the very crux of why he (and they) are all here.

Here is where they can talk the talk.

According to Trudeau

"Canada continues to support people going through difficult times," Trudeau said. "Obviously pensioners who face uncertainty need to be supported, need to be reassured. That's why Canada has measures like the Canada Pension Plan, like employment insurance benefits — a broad range of ways we can support people who are facing unexpected downturns or layoffs."

"So nothing is going to happen to Sears," Fife responded.

Trudeau Suggests E.I. For Sears Workers Who Risk Losing Pensions

I too wonder what those people do all day.
