A 2014 study by the
National Institute on Retirement Security (NIRS), Measuring the Economic Impact of DB Pension Expenditures,
reveals that benefits paid by state and local pension plans had a total impact
of $6.1 billion on Louisiana's economy.
$3.0 billion in direct
economic impacts were supported by retirees' initial expenditures, followed by
an additional $1.9 billion in indirect impact resulting when these businesses
purchased additional goods and services.
