FY 2017 Budget Review
7 FY 2018 Budget Update
A full FY 2017 General Funds budget was not
enacted prior to the end of the fiscal year
All payments for General Obligation and Build
Illinois bond debt service were made
Final FY 2017 General Funds revenue totaled
$29.405 billion
For the General Funds budget, certain
appropriations were enacted and spending
occurred through statutory transfers, statutory
continuing appropriations, court orders and
consent decrees. Such spending is estimated to
total $34.0 billion in categories such as:
– Elementary and secondary education
– Medicaid and certain social service grant
programs covered by consent decree
– State employee payrolls by court order
– Pension contributions
– Transfers to other State funds, including for
debt service
– FY 2017 Appropriations in some cases were
used to pay FY 2016 obligations
Approximately $2.8 billion in State General
Funds operational liabilities were not
appropriated in FY 2017, but these may be paid
from future year appropriations

FY 2018 Budget Update
8 FY 2018 Budget Update
As of May 31, 2017, no appropriations bills for spending for Fiscal Year 2018 had passed both chambers of
the General Assembly. After this date, the Illinois Constitution requires that changes in law and
appropriations may be immediately effective only with the approval of 3/5ths of the members of each
chamber rather than a simple majority
In early July, the General Assembly passed a Fiscal Year 2018 budget package, including appropriations and
revenue increases
– The Governor vetoed the bills related to the budget package on July 4, 2017, citing imbalances in the
proposed Fiscal Year 2018 General Funds budget
– The Senate and the House of Representatives overrode the Governor’s veto of the budget package
Three budget-related Public Acts went into effect on July 6, 2017 – PA 100-21 (appropriations), PA 100-22
(revenues) and PA 100-23 (the budget implementation statutory changes)
Included in PA 100-22 were permanent increases in the individual income tax rate from 3.75 percent to
4.95 percent and in the corporate income tax rate from 5.25 percent to 7.0 percent, effective July 1, 2017
Other revenue changes included revisions to certain tax credits and corporate income tax deductions
FY 2018 Budget Update (continued)
9 FY 2018 Budget Update
PA 100-23, the statutory budget implementation bill, included several legislative changes:
The General Assembly enacted pension funding reforms with the expectation that the revisions would
reduce the amount of contributions the State is required to make during Fiscal Year 2018
For Fiscal Year 2018, there is a 10% reduction in State income and sales tax revenue sharing with local
governments and transit districts, and also a shifting of this revenue sharing from a legislative transfer from
the General Revenue Fund after income and sales taxes are deposited into the fund to a direct deposit
Authorization for the State to issue up to $6 billion in Section 7.6 Bonds (which includes the Bonds and the
Series of November 2017D Bonds) to be used to reduce the State’s accumulated unpaid bills by paying State
vouchers incurred prior to July 1, 2017
Authorization for the Comptroller to reallocate in Fiscal Year 2018 up to $292.8 million from specific funds
Authorization for the Comptroller to temporarily transfer balances in other State funds in State Treasury to
General Funds or the Health Insurance Reserve Fund prior to December 31, 2018
– Any such interfund borrowing amounts are required to be paid back within 24 months of the borrowing
under current statute
– Outstanding interfund borrowing cannot at any time exceed $1.2 billion
As of September 30, 2017, the Comptroller had processed fund reallocations totaling $126 million and
interfund borrowing of $150 million for deposit into the General Revenue Fund
FY 2018 Estimated General Funds Revenues
10 FY 2018 Budget Update
Under current law, General Funds revenues are estimated to total $35.899 billion for FY 2018, a $6.494
billion increase, or 22.1%, from FY 2017 actual revenues
– When compared to the same group of 7 funds in the revised definition, the FY 2018 revenue estimate is
$5.566 billion, or 18.4% higher than in FY 2017
– The FY 2018 numbers also reflect the impact of the direct deposit of income tax and sales tax revenue
sharing with local governments and transit districts, estimated to total $1.558 billion
– Does not include potential revenues from interfund borrowing or fund reallocations
Federal revenue receipts will depend on the amount of reimbursable Medicaid spending and the timing of
the payments by the State, but payments are expected to be more timely in FY 2018. If the Bonds are used
to pay Medicaid bills, additional federal revenues may be received

1. Cash Basis. Does not include transfers from Budget Stabilization Fund or for FY 2018 interfund borrowing or fund reallocations. Note: General Funds in FY 2018 was
expanded to include 3 additional funds (the Commitment to Human Services Fund, Fund for the Advancement of Education, and the Budget Stabilization Fund) to a
total of 7 funds. FY 2017 and earlier reflects the original definition.
Estimated Spending for FY 2018 Budget Outlook
11 FY 2018 Budget Update
The estimated spending for the enacted FY 2018 General Funds budget is $37.4 billion
– Estimated spending from appropriations of $33.9 billion
– Debt service transfers to the GOBRI fund, including amounts needed for the Bonds, is estimated to total $2.9 billion
– Transfers to other State Funds is $573 million, significantly below previous year due to the direct deposit of local governments revenue sharing
The State’s base spending commitments are expected to exceed forecasted revenues by approximately
$1.5 billion
The FY 2018 General Funds budget will likely show a surplus reporting on a reporting basis due to:
– The transfer of a portion of the Bonds to the General Revenue Fund after issuance
– Potential additional federal revenues above the current federal revenue estimate if a portion of the Bonds are used to pay Medicaid bills
– Utilization of interfund borrowing and fund reallocations by the Comptroller in FY 2018

The State Retirement Systems, in aggregate, were funded at 39.2% as of FY 2016 based on the
asset smoothing method and 37.6% using asset market value; individual percentages for each
fund vary
FY 2016 valuations show the impact of a reduction in funding levels due to actual returns
performing at lower than assumed rates of return in FY 2016 and the reduction in the assumed
investment rates of return by TRS and SERS and other SERS assumption changes
FY 2017 valuations and FY 2019 contributions will be available from the systems by November
1st. By statute, actuarial reports must be approved by each of the five systems’ boards before
then and forwarded to the State Actuary

Senate Bill 42 (P.A. 100-0023) Includes Several Reforms to Illinois’ Pension Systems
Introduction of Tier 3 Optional Hybrid Plan - Tier 3 will offer a hybrid DB and DC plan
The small defined benefit has a multiplier of 1.25% of pensionable salary per years of service
In addition to the defined benefit, members of Tier 3 will get a defined contribution plan
Employees are to contribute a minimum of 4% of their salary and employers are to contribute no less than 2%, but no more than 6% of salary
The systems do not expect to implement the Tier 3 plan within FY 2018 and are not projecting an implementation date
Local Cost Shift - One key aspect of Tier 3 reforms is that school districts, universities and community colleges will assume the normal costs of benefits for their new hires upon implementation of a Tier 3 plan, regardless of whether the employee chooses a Tier 3 Optional Hybrid benefit or a more traditional Tier 2 defined benefit plan
To smooth the transition to Tier 3, the State will supplement the costs of local employers by paying 2% of employee payroll through fiscal year 2020 for all members of Tier 3
Additionally, starting July 1, 2017 local employers in SURS and TRS will also assume the normal cost of benefits for the portion of benefits attributable to all members’ salaries that exceed the Governor’s salary
5-Year Smoothing of Contributions - If systems change their actuarial assumptions, P.A. 100-0023 also contains reforms to how the State realizes those changes in its contributions
Beginning in FY 2018, the impact on the State's contributions from any changes each year in actuarial assumptions is smoothed over 5 years. Smoothing in FY 2018 reflects the impact of changes from FY 2014-FY 2017
The State’s FY 2018 original certified contributions in January 2017 totaled $8.843 billion of all funds, of which $7.813 billion was general funds
As required by SB42, the systems will recertify the State’s FY 2018 contributions taking into account the changes made in the new legislation
The recertified FY 2018 State contributions is expected to total $7.910 billion of all funds, of which $6.983 billion is general funds

16 Debt Overview
Monies are transferred monthly to the GOBRI Fund and, by law, are used for the payment of GO Bonds issued under the Bond Act
and for the payment of Short-Term Debt
The Bond Act constitutes an irrevocable and continuing authority for and direction to the Treasurer and Comptroller to make the
necessary transfers to the GOBRI Fund
Approximately $2.816 billion in transfers from General Funds to GOBRI are estimated for FY 2018 with the balance expected to come
from other State funds
– In FY18, the State transfers will average approximately $250 million a month from General Funds to GOBRI after the issuance of the
Bonds and the capital projects bonds
– General Funds State Source Revenues available to make General Revenue Fund debt service total approximately $2.6 billion per
month on average and provide approximately 10.4x coverage on the amount required to be transferred into GOBRI each month for
General Funds share of debt service, after the issuance of the Bonds
As of September 30, 2017, $1.387 billion was available in GOBRI

Financial Management Policies
19 Debt Overview
Security
The full faith and credit of the State is pledged for the punctual payment of principal and interest
under the General Obligation Bond Act (the “Bond Act”) of the State
– The State can draw from all State funds in the State Treasury that are not restricted by
law to another use if needed to pay debt service on GO bonds
Statutorily
Mandated Debt
Service Set Asides
(GOBRI)
Under the Bond Act, monthly transfers are made from various State funds to the General
Obligation Bond Retirement and Interest Fund (GOBRI), in amounts sufficient to pay the next
interest and principal payments when due, which effectively results in the State transferring
1/12th of the next principal payment and 1/6th of the next interest payment every month
GOBRI is a separate fund in the Treasury that can be applied to debt service payable on GO bonds
and short-term debt
Appropriation of
Funds
The Bond Act requires the Governor to include an appropriation in each annual budget of monies
in an amount necessary to pay all principal and interest due and further requires the General
Assembly to make appropriations annually to pay debt service on outstanding GO Bonds from
GOBRI
In the absence of appropriations, the Bond Act itself constitutes an irrevocable and continuing
appropriation of all amounts necessary to pay principal and interest
Principal and interest on all outstanding GO Bonds must be paid even in the absence of a State
budget
Additional
Protection under
Illinois
Constitution and
State Laws
The Bond Act explicitly provides bondholders the remedy to sue the State to compel payment of
GO bonds
The provisions of the Bond Act, pledging the full faith and credit of the State to GO bonds issued
thereunder, are by their terms irrepealable to any outstanding GO bonds
The Illinois Constitution contains a “non-impairment” clause that prohibits action by the General
Assembly that would, under contract law, impair the obligations of a contract between the State
and its bondholders
