APERS REGULATION 408 - REGULAR INTEREST SUMMARY OF AMENDMENT CHANGE TO REGULATION 408
This amendment fixes the interest rate charged and paid as "regular interest" under the provisions of Chapter 4 of Title 24 (laws governing APERS) at the actuarially assumed rate of return on APERS investments adopted by the APERS Board of Trustees. The amendment changes the regular interest rate from a fixed rate to that which mirrors APERS's investment's actuarially-assumed rate of return. Its immediate effect is to lower the rate charged by APERS from 8% to 7.75%.
