OMERS pensions to increase by 2.84% for 2012

 

OMERS announced that its pensions will increase by 2.84% as of Jan. 1, 2012. This increase reflects the change in the cost of living as reported by the Canadian Consumer Price Index.

Each January, OMERS pensions increase by the average increase in the CPP, to a maximum of 6%. If this figure is greater than 6%, the excess would be carried forward to the next year.
