REPORT OF THE QUINCY RETIREMENT BOARD


REPORT OF THE QUINCY RETIREMENT BOARD


APRIL 29, 1938


To the HONORABLE THOMAS S. BURGIN, Mayor: Quincy City Hall, Quincy, Massachusetts


DEAR SIR:


Pursuant to the Provisions of Chapter 152 of the Acts of 1934, the Quincy Retirement Board submits its third annual report for the year ending December 31, 1937, with appended tables setting forth the financial and statistical results.


The Act that created the Retirement System provides that in addi- tion to an annual actuarial valuation of the assets and liabilities of the reserve funds of the system, an actuarial investigation into the mortality, service and compensation experience of the members and beneficiaries be made three years after the system became opera- tive, and at least once in each five-year period thereafter.


Actuarial valuations have in each year been made as of June 30. Therefore as of June 30, 1937, when the system had been in opera- tion two and one-half years, it was decided to make an actuarial in- vestigation required under the terms of the Act creating the system.


The report of the Actuary was submitted under date of Novem- ber 5, and states "the investigation indicates that on the whole the basic tables which were adopted by the Board on March 19, 1935, are conservative, and the recommendation is made that they be continued in use."


The Retirement Board has, therefore, adopted the recommenda- tion of its Actuary continuing such basic tables and rates.


Respectfully submitted,


GEORGE H. BONSALL, LEO E. MULLIN, JOHN J. KEEFE, Quincy Retirement Board.
