Asset Allocation

The PERA Board determines the strategic asset allocation policy for the fund. The PERA Board’s policy specifies the desired target allocation for each asset class as well as the ranges within which each asset class may operate. The PERA Board commissioned an asset/liability study during 2019, which resulted in the approval of the following 2022 Policy Benchmark weights and long-term asset allocation and ranges, effective January 1, 2022:

Asset Class	2022 Policy Benchmark Weight	Long-Term Target Allocation	Permissible Range
Global Equity	55%	54%	49% to 61%
