Adopting Coverage



LOPFI is a statewide defined benefit retirement system for police officers and firefighters of political subdivisions in Arkansas. A defined benefit plan means: a monthly benefit is provided based on a formula provided by law for the Member's lifetime. When a Member has met eligibility requirements and decides to retire, they will receive a monthly retirement benefit for their lifetime. (Please refer to the Member Handbook for eligibility requirements and Board Rule 15 under LOPFI's Rules and Resolutions for the definition of a police officer and firefighter.)
