S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 9668--A I N A S S E M B L Y March 28, 2022 ___________ Introduced by M. of A. ABBATE -- read once and referred to the Committee on Governmental Employees -- committee discharged, bill amended, ordered reprinted as amended and recommitted to said committee AN ACT to amend the retirement and social security law, in relation to investments by public pension funds THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Paragraph (a) of subdivision 9 of section 177 of the retirement and social security law, as amended by chapter 22 of the laws of 2006, is amended to read as follows: (a) the investments by a fund made pursuant to this subdivision shall not at any time exceed [twenty-five] THIRTY-FIVE per centum of the assets of such fund; § 2. This act shall take effect immediately. FISCAL NOTE.--Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50: This bill would amend subdivision 9 of Section 177 of the Retirement and Social Security Law to increase to 35% the percentage of assets which may be invested by the New York State Teachers' Retirement System in those investments that aren't otherwise specifically permitted under the other subdivisions of this section. The current limit is 25%. If this bill is enacted, any cost or savings to the employers of members of the New York State Teachers' Retirement System would depend on the investment performance of any assets that are invested in a different manner due to this change in the investment restrictions. Additional investment income will result in lower required employer contributions, and vice-versa. Member data is from the System's most recent actuarial valuation files, consisting of data provided by the employers to the Retirement System. Data distributions and statistics can be found in the System's Annual Report. System assets are as reported in the System's financial statements and can also be found in the System's Annual Report. Actuari- al assumptions and methods are provided in the System's Actuarial Valu- ation Report and the 2021 Actuarial Assumptions Report.
