New York State Comptroller

State Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli was elected to a full four-year term as New York State Comptroller in November 2010. Since first taking the position in February 2007, DiNapoli has transformed the way his office does business, instilling reforms to make government more effective, efficient and ethical. He has pushed for increased transparency and accountability in government, and identified billions of dollars in waste, fraud, abuse and mismanagement.

DiNapoli, New York’s chief fiscal officer, is responsible for auditing the operations of all State agencies and local governments, managing the State’s pension fund, overseeing the New York State and Local Retirement System, reviewing the State and New York City budgets, approving State contracts, and administering the State’s payroll and central accounting system.

As sole trustee for the $146.9 billion State pension fund, one of the largest institutional investors in the world, DiNapoli has safeguarded the interests of over one million members, retirees and beneficiaries, imposed tough new rules to prevent improper influence on investment decisions, and enhanced public disclosure, invested millions of dollars in New York companies to grow the State’s economy, fought for changes in Iran and Sudan, promoting responsible investing and created opportunities for minority and women fund managers. DiNapoli is committed to making State government serve the people of New York better. His reforms include an ambitious Green Initiative to promote cost-effective, environmentally sustainable practices.
