As of June 2019, Indiana had $2.3 million in total cash and investment holdings in its public pension funds, according to the U.S. Census Bureau’s Annual Survey of Public Pensions.
Of that amount, $2.2 million was in state pension funds, and the remaining $103,249 was in local government pension funds.
The survey includes public pensions sponsored by local and state government entities with employees who are compensated with public funds. The local governments include counties, townships, school districts, and special districts.
The data gathered includes revenues, expenditures, financial assets, membership and liabilities information.
Residents in Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming do not pay state income taxes.
The Census Bureau cautions not all respondents answer all survey questions. Thus, some fields were left blank.
Indiana reported data from 257 pension systems, including 10 state-level pension funds and 247 local-level systems. The total number of pension system members was 427,875 (415,639 at the state level and 12,236 at the local level).
