Description: This is the fourth paper on n-year roll forward reserve financing of public benefit systems, especially Old-Age, Survivors and disability Insurance OASDI, prepared by University of Michigan faculty and students.

This research can be extended to expand our knowledge of OASDI financing and the applicability of n-year roll forward reserve financing.
