Pew Charitable Trusts has cited the WRS as one of three public employee pension plans that has maintained high funded ratios at predictable costs over the past 20 years. The WRS has “exemplary characteristics,” Pew noted, “including a path to retirement security for all workers within clearly defined cost targets, a plan for managing risk, and a commitment to ensuring that policies are transparent and clearly communicated to stakeholders.”
