Examples include assumptions about future employment, salary increases, and mortality. Amounts determined regarding the net pension liability are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. The Board of Trustees adopts actuarial assumptions, each of which individually represents a reasonable long-term estimate of anticipated experience for the Systems, derived from experience studies conducted every fifth year and from Board policies concerning investments and COLAs. The most recent comprehensive experience studies were completed in May 2021. All economic and demographic assumptions were reviewed and updated, where appropriate, based on the results of the studies and effective with the June 30, 2021 valuation. Significant actuarial assumption and methods are detailed below. For additional information please refer to the Systems’ Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR). The next experience studies are scheduled for 2026. Significant actuarial assumptions and other inputs used to measure the total pension liability: Measurement Date: June 30, 2021 - 53 -

Cost of Living Increases PSRS & PEERS: Given that the actual increase in the CPI-U index from June 2020 to June 2021 was 5.39%, the Board approved an actual COLA as of January 1, 2022 of 5.00%, in accordance with the Board's funding policy and Missouri statutes, compared to an assumed COLA of 2.00%. Future COLAs assumed in the valuation are 2.00% as of January 1, 2023 and January 1, 2024, and 1.35% each January 1 thereafter. This COLA assumption is based on the 20-year stochastic analysis of inflation performed in the 2021 experience study, the application of the Board's COLA policy, and the short-term expectations of COLA due to recent CPI activity. It is also based on the current policy of the Board to grant a COLA on each January 1 as follows: If the June to June change in the CPI-U is less than 2% for one or more consecutive one-year periods, a COLA increase of 2% will be granted when the cumulative increase is equal to or greater than 2%, at which point the cumulative increase in the CPI-U will be reset to zero. For the following year, the starting CPI-U will be based on the June value immediately preceding the January 1 at which the 2% cost-of-living increase is granted. - 54 -

If the June to June change in the CPI-U is greater than or equal to 5%, a COLA increase of 5% will be granted. If the CPI decreases, no COLA is provided. The COLA applies to service retirements and beneficiary annuities. The COLA does not apply to the benefits for in-service death payable to spouses (where the spouse is over age 60), and does not apply to the spouse with children pre-retirement death benefit, the dependent children pre- retirement death benefit, or the dependent parent death benefit. The total lifetime COLA cannot exceed 80% of the original benefit. PSRS members receive a COLA on the fourth January after retirement, while PEERS members receive a COLA on the fourth January after retirement.

The future salary growth assumption was decreased from 3.00%-9.50%, depending on service. The mortality assumptions were changed to reflect the PubT-2010 (Teacher) mortality tables, with adjustments based on actual member mortality experience from 2015-2020, and to incorporate future mortality improvement on a generational basis in accordance with the MP-2020 improvement scale. Other demographic assumptions were also changed based on actual member demographic experience from 2015-2020.  PEERS: The total payroll growth assumption was decreased from 3.25% to 2.50%. The future salary growth assumption was decreased from 4.00%-11.00%, depending on service, to 3.25%-9.75%, depending on service. The mortality assumptions were changed to reflect the PubG-2010(B)(General Employee, Below-Median Income) mortality tables, with adjustments based on actual member mortality experience from 2015-2020, and to incorporate future mortality improvement on a generational basis in accordance with the MP-2020 improvement scale. Other demographic assumptions were also changed based on actual member demographic experience from 2015-2020. Fiduciary Net Position: The Systems issue a publicly available financial report (ACFR) that can be obtained at www.psrs-peers.org. Expected Rate of Return The long-term expected rate of return on investments was determined in accordance with Actuarial Standard of Practice (ASOP) No. 27, Selection of Economic Assumptions for Measuring Pension Obligations. ASOP No. 27 provides guidance on the selection of an appropriate assumed rate of return. The long-term expected rate of return on the Systems’ investments was determined using a building-block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of returns (expected returns, net of investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. Best estimates of arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class included in the Systems’ target allocation as of June 30, 2021 are summarized below. - 57 -
