TRSL recognized for excellence in financial reporting and administration

June 16, 2014

Baton Rouge – The Teachers’ Retirement System of Louisiana (TRSL) recently received three prestigious honors for its financial reporting and system management.

For the 23rd consecutive year, TRSL was honored for its 2013 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, and the system’s 2013 Popular Annual Financial Report received recognition for the 12th consecutive year. The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) presented TRSL with the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting, for both its comprehensive annual report and its less technical, summary report. The GFOA recognizes state and local governments that go beyond the minimum requirements of generally accepted accounting principles to prepare financial reports that evidence the spirit of transparency and full disclosure.

Additionally, TRSL was awarded the Public Pension Standards Award for Funding and Administration by the Public Pension Coordinating Council (PPCC), a coalition of three national associations that represent more than 500 of the largest pension plans in the U.S. Public pension standards are used to measure public defined benefit plans in the areas of management, administration, and funding. This was the 11th year TRSL received the PPCC standards award.
