SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PBGC’s
regulation on Benefits Payable in
Terminated Single-Employer Plans (29
CFR Part 4022) prescribes actuarial
assumptions—including interest
assumptions—for paying plan benefits
under terminating single-employer
plans covered by title IV of the
Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974. The interest assumptions in
the regulation are also published on
PBGC’s Web site (https://www.pbgc.gov).
PBGC uses the interest assumptions in
Appendix B to Part 4022 to determine
whether a benefit is payable as a lump
sum and to determine the amount to
pay. Appendix C to Part 4022 contains
interest assumptions for private-sector
pension practitioners to refer to if they
wish to use lump-sum interest rates
determined using PBGC’s historical
methodology. Currently, the rates in
Appendices B and C of the benefit
payment regulation are the same.
The interest assumptions are intended
to reflect current conditions in the
financial and annuity markets.
Assumptions under the benefit
payments regulation are updated
monthly. This final rule updates the
benefit payments interest assumptions
for November 2013.1
The November 2013 interest
assumptions under the benefit payments
regulation will be 1.75 percent for the
period during which a benefit is in pay
status and 4.00 percent during any years
preceding the benefit’s placement in pay
status. In comparison with the interest
assumptions in effect for October 2013,
these interest assumptions are
unchanged.
PBGC has determined that notice and
public comment on this amendment are
impracticable and contrary to the public
interest. This finding is based on the
need to determine and issue new
interest assumptions promptly so that
the assumptions can reflect current
market conditions as accurately as
possible.
Because of the need to provide
immediate guidance for the payment of
benefits under plans with valuation
dates during November 2013, PBGC
finds that good cause exists for making
the assumptions set forth in this
amendment effective less than 30 days
after publication.

benefits under terminating covered single-employer
plans for purposes of allocation of assets under
ERISA section 4044. Those assumptions are
updated quarterly.
