Can a member borrow against their OPERS fund?

No, members of the Ohio Public Employees Retirement System (OPERS) cannot borrow against their retirement fund. However, they may be eligible for a loan from their account if they are part of the OPERS defined contribution plan. Members of the OPERS traditional pension plan cannot take loans but can withdraw their contributions under certain conditions after terminating employment. Always consult with OPERS or a financial advisor for specific options and requirements.
