MPERS

At MPERS, our team of 21 employees never fail to inspire us with their kindness and commitment to giving back. Their generosity this year has been nothing short of amazing! ✨ Missouri State Employee Charitable Campaign Highlights: Total Employee Donations: $767,157 (statewide) MPERS Contributions: $7,824 Participation Rate: 57.14% ✨ Exceeding Expectations: This holiday season, we set a goal to raise $640 for the Samaritan Center to support 3 seniors, 1 large family, and 1 small family. Our team didn’t just meet that goal—we raised $800! We’re incredibly proud of our team for their generosity and their dedication to giving back to the community. Together, we’re making an impact that matters.

What are milestones? Milestones mark key achievements or significant points along a journey. They provide a sense of progress, accomplishment, and direction. Reaching meaningful milestones signifies that you’re on the right path, while missing them might highlight areas that need attention. We have taken a similar approach when evaluating MPERS, your retirement system. What are the critical milestones of the System? How do these milestones help us measure the System’s progress and success? We’re proud to share that MPERS has recently achieved several significant milestones. These accomplishments reflect the System’s ongoing strength and dedication to serving its members. So, where does the System currently stand, and what milestones lie ahead? Join Executive Director Scott Simon as he explores the vital sign categories of benefit administration, financial/audit, budget, communication, and investments.

It's annual report season for public funds as most funds have a fiscal year end of June 30th. It was another great year for MPERS' investment portfolio! Year by year comparisons are always challenging, but MPERS' 3, 5, 10, and 20 year returns all rank among the top of the peer universe. A shout out to all our staff, consultants, and partners for their role in this success. 20 years ago, our fund was one of the worst performing funds in the country - this is a true turnaround story! #AnnualReport #Investments #SuccessStory #MPERS #TurnaroundStory
