Asset allocation policy
Target weights set by the board in the plan's Investment Policy Statement. Each class has a rebalancing range — drift outside the range triggers a rebalance.

| Fixed income | 22% | 15–30% | $17B |

| Real estate / real assets | 9% | 5–15% | $7B |
| Hedge funds / other alternatives | 9% | 0–15% | $7B |

Holdings overview
Public equity is held mostly through index sleeves (S&P 500, Russell 3000, MSCI ACWI ex-U.S.) plus active mandates. Private market exposure is implemented through 50–150 fund commitments across vintages.
Board mandates
- Single statutory duty: pay current and future retirement benefits to plan members.
- Asset allocation set by the board within statutory limits; reviewed every 3–5 years.
- Most equity managed passively; alternatives accessed via external managers.
- Diversification and prudent-investor rules govern manager selection.
