Rankings: 10 worst funded pensions in Northwest Illinois

Money 08

Savanna, Dixon and Freeport have government pension funds with the lowest funding levels in Northwest Illinois, according to the Illinois Department of Insurance.

If the amount a pension fund is obligated to pay pensioners outpaces the funds it has on hand, the fund is in the precarious position of carrying unfunded liabilities.

The healthiest funds have a funding position at or above 100 percent. Any fund whose position is below 100 percent is unable to meet its pension obligations.
