Description:
About Us On January 1, 2024, the Public Employees Benefits Agency (PEBA) became the Public Pensions and Benefits Administration Corporation, operating as Plannera Pensions & Benefits (Plannera), a not-for-profit corporation (NPC) operating at arms’ length from the provincial government.
PEBA (now Plannera) began operating in 1983 in Regina as an agency of the Government of Saskatchewan within the department now called the Ministry of Finance. PEBA originally managed four pensions and three benefit plans. In 2025, Plannera manages 11 pension plans, and 16 benefits plans for more than 900 employers and 100,000 plan members. The Public Employees’ Pension Plan (PEPP) and the Municipal Employees’ Pension Plan (MEPP) are the two largest plans that Plannera administers, accounting for more than 80 per cent of Plannera’s budget and resources.
The Public Employees’ Pension Plan Board (the Board) and the Municipal Employees' Pension Commission (the Commission) serve two separate and distinct roles in the corporation: they are Plannera’s founding Members and are also the corporation’s largest clients. As clients, the Board and the Commission retain Plannera to provide executive management and administrative services to their respective pension plans.
To align the governance structure of Plannera as an NPC, a corporate board was established in 2023; the two Members jointly appoint directors to the board and perform other required functions in a role similar to shareholders of the corporation. The focus of the corporate board is to oversee the corporation and the services it provides to client plans.
