How Sensitive Is Public Pension Funding to Investment Returns? (PDF)
Center for Retirement Research at Boston College Oct. 1, 2013
"[T]he real return -- the nominal return net of inflation -- is the relevant concept for public plans because benefits are generally indexed for inflation both before (through salary increases) and after retirement (through cost-of-living adjustments)....
