What This Means for You

Wisconsin Retirement System is in excellent financial health at 95% funded. This means for every dollar the plan owes in future benefits, it has 95 cents in assets to cover it. As a public pension, benefits are typically backed by the taxing authority of the sponsoring government. Participants in this plan have relatively low risk of benefit reductions.
