Are Your Beneficiary Designations Current?

Make sure your SDCERA beneficiary designations are up-to-date because your beneficiaries may be entitled to receive certain SDCERA benefits upon your death. If you have married, divorced or had children, you should update your beneficiary information by completing a Beneficiary Designation form and submitting it to SDCERA.

Investment Market Volatility and Retiree Benefit Payments

There should be no concern whatsoever of SDCERA's ability to pay retired Members and beneficiaries their monthly retirement benefits. SDCERA's Trust Fund has $11 billion in total assets. Using just 10% of these assets and with regular contributions by the plan sponsors and employees, SDCERA can pay retired Members and beneficiaries for well over a decade. The remaining 90% of Trust Fund assets continue to be prudently invested in well-diversified financial markets and positioned to take advantage of market dislocations.
