On behalf of the Public Pension Coordinating Council (PPCC), we invite your organization to apply to be recognized with our Public Pension Standards award. Please note the deadline to submit your application is Friday, November 3.
The Public Pension Standards are intended reflect minimum expectations for public retirement system management and administration, as well as serve as a benchmark by which all defined benefit public pension plans should be measured. We wholeheartedly encourage retirement systems and the governmental entities that sponsor them to uphold these standards with unwavering commitment.
For the year 2023, the PPCC Standards Program maintains its focus on two pivotal categories: the Administrative Standard and the Funding Standard. Systems that meet the criteria for either standard shall be conferred with a Recognition Certificate. However, for those who exceed the threshold in both categories, the prestigious Public Pension Coordinating Council Standards Award awaits.
How to Apply: Comprehensive information and registration are accessible via our dedicated PPCC application page. A $125 fee covers program administration.
Deadline: Please submit your application by Friday, November 3 to allow time to process the applications and have certificates available for your Financial Report. The earlier we receive your application, the sooner you will receive the certificate.
