Background

Who Lowa Municipal Fire & Police Retirement System is.

Where the institution came from, whose capital it manages, and how that capital is allocated — from Dealroom's LP research.

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.
