New video series answers your questions about PERA’s investment program.

What investments are included in PERA’s portfolio? How does PERA staff make those decisions? How does PERA manage the risk that comes with any kind of investment?

Questions like these are addressed in a new series of videos recently released by PERA. The genesis of the series started with frequently asked questions from PERA members and stakeholders. Titled the “We Hear You” series, the video collection features interviews with PERA’s Chief Investment Officer as well as members of the investment staff answering questions from actual members. The purpose of the series is to broaden awareness of PERA’s investment program, guiding practices and the goals it seeks to achieve on behalf of the membership.

The video program is designed to complement the extensive information about these practices – everything from asset allocation to performance metrics – available on PERA’s website and included in the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.

The first video in this series covers the ABCs of PERA’s Investment Program. You can watch it below, on the copera.org website, or on PERA’s YouTube channel. Have a question?
