The Rising Tide of Pension Contributions Post-2008: How much and when?

Research Projects – Pension


The SOA is pleased to make available a research report from the new Rapid Retirement Research Initiative that provides a system-wide analysis of the expected contribution requirements for the U.S. single-employer defined benefit (DB) pension universe over the remainder of this decade. This report is unique in that we show the results of the aggregate system-wide effect and we evaluate these results in the context of recent history, including recent regulatory and economic changes and how the individual decisions being made have affected the pension system.
