CSRS Funding
Gao ID: GGD-95-200R April 3, 1995Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed information on the funding status of the Civil Service Retirement System. GAO noted that: (1) the system's unfunded liability is not a problem that needs to be fixed to avoid a steep increase in outlays from the Treasury or increases in the deficit; and (2) there should be sufficient assets in the retirement fund to cover benefit payments to all current and future retirees.
