The SURS Lifetime Income Strategy (LIS) option is designed to help SURS members meet basic income needs in retirement. It is a flexible, target date portfolio that automatically adjusts its asset allocation based on your age, target retirement date, and selected secure income level. As you near retirement, you have the option to secure guaranteed retirement income that you can’t outlive. 

If you invest in the SURS LIS and do nothing, you will automatically be on the path to receive guar-anteed monthly income for life in retirement that will increase with market gains and not decrease with market declines.
