[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FERS is fully funded for itself and always has been. (OPM increases the agency contribution piece if it's actuarially necessary.) The increased contribution that RAE and FRAE employees make is to make up for CSRS employees, whose pension has never been fully funded. But there are few CSRS employees left in active service, and the number of pensioners is going down. That's not to say something *couldn't* change, but FERS is not contributing one cent to the federal debt (except, I suppose, obliquely in that the agencies have to make contributions each year which raise their annual budgets).[/quote] Where is all FERS funds are? Are they also part of treasury bonds? If yes, then what would happen if the rates goes higher or any other problem from high national debt? [/quote] I would also like to know where the FERS $s are invested. G-bonds?[/quote]
