Board Report, April 2026
INVESTMENT PERFORMANCE IS IN TOP PERCENTILE AMONG PEER PENSION FUNDS
According to a report from OP&F’s investment consultant, Wilshire, the OP&F investment portfolio was in the first percentile for performance during the 2025 calendar year.
The gross return for the year of 18.52% ranked in the first percentile in Wilshire’s peer rankings, which included 560 public pension plans. OP&F also was in the top percentile for returns in the fourth quarter of 2025, with a gross return of 3.26%.
The performance of OP&F’s allocations to gold, international equity, commodities and U.S. equity led the way to achieving these results.
OP&F INTRODUCES EMPLOYER KNOWLEDGE HUB FOR NEW PENSION SYSTEM
As OP&F transitions to a new pension administration system later this year, a website has been created specifically for employers to support this change. The new site, the OP&F Employer Knowledge Hub, is designed to be a go-to place for transition information for employers and includes resources and guidance to navigate changes to reporting, workflows, and system access.
Employers can access the OP&F Employer Knowledge Hub via a link under the Employer tab on the OP&F home page. The site is intended for employers only and is password protected. Once logged in, employers will find: information about what’s changing and how to prepare for the change; transition updates and important dates; training information and resources; and helpful tools and reference materials.
