INTRODUCTION

 

      This digest covers our compliance attestation examination of the Illinois State Board of Investment (Board) for the year ended June 30, 2007. A financial audit covering the year ending June 30, 2007 was previously released on March 4, 2008.  There were no report findings of noncompliance identified during our testing.

 

FUNDING LEGISLATION

 

      In June 2005, Public Act 94-0004 became law.  This legislation modified the funding plan of the State Employees’ Retirement System, Judges’ Retirement System and General Assembly Retirement System (Systems). The legislation included funding reductions of approximately $496.4 million in fiscal year 2007, for employer contributions to the Systems.   This funding resulted in member systems’ withdrawals from the Board in fiscal year 2007 of $642 million to meet their respective funding requirements for benefit obligations.

 

ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT

 

      We conducted a compliance attestation examination of the Board for the year ended June 30, 2007 as required by the Illinois State Auditing Act. The accountants’ report does not contain any scope limitations, disclosures or other significant non-standard language.
