Summary of Request:
Segal Consulting prepared an Actuarial Valuation and Review for MCERA as of June 30, 2016 (included). The study is being presented to the Board of Supervisors with a recommendation from the Retirement Board (GC Section 31453 (a)) to set the employer and employee contribution rates for fiscal year 2017/18 as computed and recommended by Segal.
The aggregate recommended employer and employee contribution rates for fiscal year 2016/17 are 32.05% and 9.65%, respectively. The total actuarially determined employer contributions, calculated using a projected payroll of $61.2 million, are estimated to be $19,621,000.
