VW loan offer remains firm despite VW delays
The Pupue School Employes Retirement Board sticks to a 9 percent interest rate on an $8 million VW loan package aimed at luring a new assembly plant to New Stanton. VW says 9 percent is too high, while Gov. Shapp expects deal details to be resolved by mid-August. The board plans to seek acceptance by Aug. 16, with approval by the full boards required. The fund explains a temporary payout spike from a $46 million cost-of-living adjustment skewed the cash picture.

Wisdom urged in loan decision for Volkswagen funds
State Sen. W Thomas Andrews urged the State Employes Retirement System to use “wisdom” in disbursing a 1355 million loan to Volkswagen. The total loan pledge totals 155 million from two systems with 85 million from the Public School fund and 50 million from the other fund. He warned that disbursements may not be met by income and loss of capital could freeze investments for 30 years at nine percent income. He urged custodians to exercise prudent judgment reflecting the needs of beneficiaries as benefits expand.
