Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation December 23, 2008 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation's regulation on Benefits Payable in Terminated Single-Employer Plans prescribes interest assumptions for valuing and paying certain benefits under terminating single-employer plans. This final rule amends the benefit payments regulation to adopt interest assumptions for plans with valuation dates in January 2009. As discussed below, PBGC will publish a separate final rule document dealing with interest assumptions under its regulation on Allocation of Assets in Single-Employer Plans for January 2009. Interest assumptions are also published on PBGC's Web site (https:// www.pbgc.gov).
