Biz Beat: State pension fund solvent, report says

The state of Wisconsin gets positive marks for its pension fund under a new report issued by the Pew Center on the States.

Wisconsin was one of nine states designated as being a solid performer when it comes to state retiree health care and other non-pension benefits.

What the report didnâ??t mention, however, is that the State of Wisconsin Investment Board will begin using borrowed money to try and boost performance.
