Welcome to the

Pennsylvania Association of Public Employee Retirement Systems

 

PAPERS is an organization designed to serve the needs of all public employee retirements systems in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.  The primary purpose of PAPERS is to provide an educational forum that leads to improved performance and management of the public employee retirements systems in the State.  The Association will function as a central resource for educational purposes and act as a networking agent for all public plan staff and board members in the State.  PAPERS will provide the State’s public retirement systems with educational conferences, seminars, newsletters, operational handbooks, referral systems and an internet-based website for items of interest, membership information and updates.

Happy New Year!

 

I hope everyone had a joyous and healthy holiday season.

 

First off, I want to thank Karen, Doug, and Lori for the great job they did on the Fall Forum.  I also want to take the time to thank the Education Committee for setting up the informative topics, the Presenters for sharing their insights and talents, and a big thank you to our Sponsors, without whose support we could not conduct the forums.

 

The Education Committee is already hard at work planning session presentations for the May Forum which will be upon us before we know it.

 

With the ever-changing landscape in Washington, it is more important than ever for Pension Plan Trustees to keep educated on changes affecting Pension Plans.

 

The primary mission of PAPERS is Trustee Education, something we do well. If you know of any plans that would benefit from our Trustee Education, please feel free to send their names to either Karen or myself to follow up.  In that way we can grow the organization and spread training to more Trustees to help them function better in their capacity.

 

In closing, have a great rest of winter and spring, and see you in Harrisburg in May.

 

Bob
