"2020 Public Plan Investment Update and COVID-19 Market Volatility"

Updated: Jul 5, 2022

The brief’s key findings are:

  • Despite the market rebound, most public pension plans ended FY 2020 with investment returns that fell short of actuarial expectations.

  • Moreover, the March crash raised concerns about the liquidity needs of public plans, which already must sell assets to pay benefits.

  • In particular, alternatives are harder to value and more illiquid, which make them a poor option for selling in a downturn.

  • However, plans do maintain a cache of Treasuries that could be easily liquidated, so most plans are equipped to weather a sharp downturn.
