*By law, Tier One members receive the PERS Board-adopted assumed interest rate in effect each calendar year. See OAR 459-007-0005 (11).

**Starting in 2018, the investment strategy of the IAP changed from a one-size-fits-all approach to target-date funds (TDFs) that reduce investment risk and volatility as members age.
