01 · Background
Who Lowa Municipal Fire & Police Retirement System is.
- Historical Background
- The Municipal Fire and Police Retirement System of Iowa (MFPRSI) was established by the 1990 General Assembly and became effective on January 1, 1992. It was created to consolidate the 87 local police and fire retirement systems that existed in 49 of Iowa's largest cities into a single statewide system.
- Source of Capital
- The system is funded by contributions from its members, who are full-time firefighters and police officers, and their employing cities. Upon a member's retirement, benefits are paid solely from MFPRSI's assets, not from city accounts.
- Allocation Strategy
- The system's Board of Trustees is responsible for reviewing and setting the asset allocation policy, which includes a diversified portfolio of asset classes. In the past, the system has considered infrastructure as an asset class, though it has also made adjustments to this allocation. The board employs an investment consulting firm to provide advisory services and technical information.
