Our investment approach:
navigating changing markets
while keeping your pension strong
We manage your Plan with a long-term perspective, focused on delivering stable, sustainable results through changing market conditions. Over the past decade, strong performance has supported continued growth of the Fund and an improved funded position, reinforcing the Plan’s resilience and its ability to meet pension commitments.
Strengthening position
The Plan’s funded ratio continued to improve in 2025, reaching a record level of 120.6%. Funded status shows how well the Plan can cover its pension obligations. As this position strengthens, it reinforces the Plan’s ability to pay pensions over the long term, giving you greater confidence in the security of your benefits, now and in the future.

of growth
Over the past ten years, consistent investment performance has supported strong growth in total net assets. This progress strengthens the Plan’s financial position and helps ensure it can meet pension commitments now, and into the future.
A balanced investment strategy
We invest across a range of asset classes, regions, and strategies to support a well-balanced portfolio. This diversified approach helps reduce reliance on any single market and supports more consistent results over time.
Responding to a changing global environment
In 2025, global markets continued to be shaped by inflation, interest rate changes, and economic uncertainty. Our investment program is designed to adapt within these conditions, with different parts of the portfolio contributing in different ways to support stability.
“Having a defined benefit pension plan is important to me because it gives me confidence and reassurance about my retirement future.”

Working toward easier access to your pension information
In 2025, we continued to lay the groundwork for a new pension administration system to support more modern and flexible services for members. This includes exploring future digital options, such as secure access to pension information and self-service tools, an area we know is of interest to many members based on your feedback. These enhancements will be introduced over time as part of a phased approach to system modernization.
Your education and engagement
We continue to invest in tools, resources, and outreach that help you better understand your pension and the role it plays in your financial future. From digital content to targeted communications, our approach is designed to meet you where you are and make pension information more accessible and meaningful.
Introducing our Membership Advisory Focus Group
In 2025, we introduced a Member Advisory pilot program, bringing together members at different career stages to share their perspectives. This group provides valuable input on how we communicate, educate, and support you, helping ensure our services reflect your needs and experiences.
Retirement Ready webinar series
Approaching retirement? We’re here to help you feel confident. In 2025, our Retirement Ready webinars connected with you across the province, offering practical guidance, real examples, and opportunities to ask questions and better understand your pension.

Supporting
our pensioners
Our pensioners value staying connected and informed, with many expressing a strong understanding of how their pension supports them throughout retirement. Through ongoing communication and partnerships, we continue to support a positive and informed retirement experience.
24,624 pensioners across
Newfoundland and Labrador
Across the province, you’re part of communities of all sizes. Your pensions do more than support your retirement – they also contribute to local economies and communities throughout Newfoundland and Labrador.
$6 billion in pension benefits
paid since 2016
Every month, pension payments continue to support you in retirement. These payments reflect years of work and a commitment you can count on.
Staying connected through our partners
Through partnerships with the Newfoundland and Labrador Public Sector Pensioners Association and Connections for Seniors, we maintain meaningful connections with pensioners across the province and support older adults in our communities. In 2025, we took part in events like the NLPSPA Spring Fling and prepared 72 kindness kits for Connections for Seniors.
Working together
to support you
Our participating employers play an important role in helping you understand and engage with your pension. By working together, we help ensure you have access to information and support throughout your career.
Throughout the year, we connected with employers through working sessions and one-on-one conversations, focused on sharing updates and improving how we support you.
In 2025, we also came together at our Employer Appreciation event to share updates, recognize contributions, and continue building strong working relationships.
Strengthening how we engage
In 2025, we renewed our focus on employer relations and launched the development of an employer engagement strategy. A new role created within our organization, Manager of Plan Compliance and Employer Relations, is now dedicated to proactive engagement and improved service delivery for employers.
Our participating employers
We work with 43 participating employers across Newfoundland and Labrador, representing tens of thousands of you.
A secure future matters. Nearly 70% of members say the public service pension plan is a highly important factor in remaining with their current employer.
