The general assembly intends that, to the extent specified in this article, the payments to the fund by the state or the participating political subdivisions, the payment of all benefits, the payment of interest credits, and the payment of administration expenses are obligations of the state and the participating political subdivisions. However, this obligation is not a guarantee that the amount credited to a member in the annuity savings account will not vary in value as a result of the performance of the investment program selected by the member under IC 5-10.2-2, unless the member selected the guaranteed program (before its elimination on January 1, 2017), in which case the obligation is such a guarantee.
