PART 1—INCOME TAXES
Jkt 244001
This final rule amends the
Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation’s
regulation on Benefits Payable in
Terminated Single-Employer Plans to
prescribe interest assumptions under
the regulation for valuation dates in
December 2017. The interest
assumptions are used for paying
benefits under terminating singleemployer plans covered by the pension
insurance system administered by
PBGC.
SUMMARY:
DATES:
PO 00000
Effective December 1, 2017.

Daniel S. Liebman (liebman.daniel@

Counsel for Regulatory Affairs, Pension
Benefit Guaranty Corporation, 1200 K
Street NW., Washington, DC 20005,
202–326–4400 ext. 6510. (TTY/TDD
users may call the Federal relay service
toll-free at 1–800–877–8339 and ask to
be connected to 202–326–4400, ext.
6510.)
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 terminated 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 December 2017.1
The December 2017 interest
assumptions under the benefit payments
regulation will be 0.75 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 November
2017, these 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.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
1 Appendix B to PBGC’s regulation on Allocation
of Assets in Single-Employer Plans (29 CFR part
4044) prescribes interest assumptions for valuing
benefits under terminating covered single-employer
plans for purposes of allocation of assets under
ERISA section 4044. Those assumptions are
updated quarterly.
