Recent events — such as the bankruptcy of the city of Detroit — have increased discussion on how pension obligations are measured. While most of the conversation has focused on public sector plans, many of the same pension funding concepts also apply to multiemployer plans.
The November, 2013 edition of the Benefits Magazine published by the International Foundation of Employee Benefit Plans includes an article that discusses two different approaches for measuring multiemployer pension obligations. This article, “Setting the Pension Funding Target: Why Expected Return Matters,” was co-authored by Josh Shapiro of the National Coordinating Committee for Multiemployer Plans (NCCMP) and Cary Franklin of Horizon Actuarial Services, LLC.
