About PRIM

The Pension Reserves Investment Management ("PRIM") Board is charged with the general supervision of the PRIT Fund. The Pension Reserves Investment Trust (“PRIT”) Fund was created through legislation, Chapter 661 of the Acts of 1983, to accumulate assets through investment earnings and other revenue sources in order to reduce the Commonwealth’s significant unfunded pension liability, and to assist local participating retirement systems in meeting their future pension obligations.
