• Response to 2003 Wilshire Report on State Retirement Systems
  NCTR has issued a response and Norm Jones and Paul Zornof Gabriel, Roeder, Smith & Company have written to Wilshire's Stephen Nesbitt, expressing their concerns regarding certain conclusions drawn in the 2003 Wilshire Report on State Retirement Systems. In general, they believe the report's alarmist tone, selective use of statistics, and use of technical terms without better explanation paints a misleading picture of state and state teacher retirement plan funding. Consequently, its findings can be easily interpreted as suggesting the plans are in dire financial condition - as was reported by the Washington Post and Chicago Sun-Times.
