Anyone can enlighten what is our CPF's return on investment? Is it published anywhere? This is so that we can compare it with the 2.5and 4 % (and the 1% extra for 1st $60k)that they pay us for our money locked long term (and longer with CPF Life) in the fund.

Calpers is different from CPF.

CPF is used for housing, education, retirement and many other things.

Therefore it is not possible to compare Calpers with CPF.

If CPF is restricted to retirement only, perhaps it can also generate a similar return.
