SFA Analysis of Retirement Proposals |
|
Wednesday, 10 March 2010 |
As part of the fiscal year (FY) 2010-11 budget recommendation, Governor Granholm proposed numerous long-term reforms and short-term incentives for the State's two largest pension systems: the State Employees' Retirement System (SERS) and the Michigan Public School Employees' Retirement System (MPSERS). Two memos published in February by the Senate Fiscal Agency (SFA) detail the proposals along with estimates of savings published by the State Budget Office, and can be found at here. This memo will discuss the SFA estimates of costs and savings for the MPSERS plan, and compare those to the assumptions and figures published by the State Budget Office (SBO).

In response to your valued feedback and in an effort to increase customer service, reduce hold times and allow participants to gain timely access to the most appropriate NGE representative, we are taking proactive steps to improve our call center capabilities.
During the upcoming days we will be installing a completely new phone system. Therefore on Wednesday, March 3rd from 8pm EST to Thursday, March 4th 8:30am EST voicemail capabilities and direct contact through extensions will be disabled. If attempts are made to reach our offices during this time, you will receive a greeting indicating the actions we are taking. We expect our phone system to be fully operational Thursday, March 4th at 8:30am EST.
We appreciate your patience during this time.
Thank you,
