In response to the growing challenge of attracting and retaining talent in the public sector, NCPERS published the inaugural Public Pension Compensation Survey last year. The survey features comprehensive data on nine C-suite positions from more than 150 public pension funds, with information on benefits provided to staff, average salary and bonus data, and detailed compensation data for executive staff broken down by fund assets and employee tenure.

Approximately 63 percent of survey respondents indicated that attracting and retaining skilled staff is a problem or is expected to be a problem soon. NCPERS Compensation Survey has become an invaluable tool for funds of all sizes to benchmark compensation and benefits packages against peers.

Following the success of the inaugural survey—and based on input from NCPERS members—the 2023 Public Pension Compensation Survey will focus on mid- and senior-level roles. We invite all public retirement systems to participate in this year's survey.

By participating, your organization will receive complementary access to the final report this fall (for reference, the 2022 survey is currently available for purchase for $495). Participating NCPERS members – current and future – will also have complementary access to the interactive online dashboard that allows you to filter data to optimize the mix of funds for comparison.
