WRS
The fully-funded Wisconsin Retirement System (WRS) consistently ranks among the top 10 largest in the U.S. WRS participants include current and former employees of Wisconsin’s state agencies and universities and most local governments and public school districts. Investing WRS assets is the responsibility of the State of Wisconsin Investment Board (SWIB). Individual WRS accounts are managed by the Department of Employee Trust Funds (ETF).

Contributions made to the WRS by employees and their employers are invested by the Investment Board. The accumulated funds in the retirement system trusts are used to pay retirement benefits.
The WRS has two funds: the Core Fund, a fully diversified fund, and the Variable Fund, an all-stock fund.
