The New York State Common Retirement Fund’s (Fund) estimated return in the second quarter of the State Fiscal Year (SFY) 2021-22 was 1.15% for the three-month period ending Sept. 30, 2021, according to New York State Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli. It ended the quarter with an estimated value of $267.8 billion.
“Market volatility brought returns down from their heights earlier in the year, but the Fund remains on a pace to generate solid returns overall,” DiNapoli said. “We’ll continue to manage investments with prudence and a focus on long term stability and risk management that has positioned us as one of the nation’s strongest public pension plans.”
The Fund’s estimated value reflects benefits of $3.57 billion paid out to retirees and beneficiaries during the quarter. Its audited value as of fiscal year end March 31, 2021 was $258.1 billion and the SFY 2020-21 annual return was 33.55%.
As of Sept. 30, 2021, the Fund had 52.14% of its assets invested in publicly traded equities. The remaining Fund assets by allocation are invested in cash, bonds and mortgages (21.84%), private equity (12.23%), real estate and real assets (8.44%) and credit, absolute return strategies and opportunistic alternatives (5.35%).
The New York State Common Retirement Fund is the third largest public pension fund in the United States. The Fund holds and invests the assets of the New York State and Local Retirement System on behalf of more than one million state and local government employees and retirees and their beneficiaries.
