The Combined Funds represent the assets of active and retired public employees in the three statewide retirement systems, which include Minnesota State Retirement System (MSRS), Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA), and Teachers Retirement Association (TRA).  

Asset Allocation

The Combined Funds assets are allocated in public equity (domestic and international), fixed income, and private markets. Each asset class may be further differentiated by geography, management style and/or strategy. This diversification is intended to reduce wide fluctuations in investment returns on a year-to-year basis and enhance the fund’s ability to meet or exceed the actuarial return target over the long-term.
