Allocation of Assets in Single-Employer Plans; Valuation of Benefits and Assets; Expected Retirement Age

Résumé

This rule amends the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation's regulation on Allocation of Assets in Single-Employer Plans by substituting new Table I-98 in place of existing Table I-97 in appendix D. Table I-98 applies to any plan being terminated either in a distress termination or involuntarily by the PBGC with a valuation date falling in 1998, and is used to determine expected retirement ages for plan participants. This table is needed in order to compute the value of early retirement benefits and, thus, the total value of benefits under the plan.
