USA: Milliman 2021 Corporate Pension Funding Study
In 2020, despite a 67-basis-point decline in the discount rate, the funded ratio for the Milliman 100 plans climbed slightly, from 87.5% at fiscal year-end (FYE) 2019 to 88.4% at FYE 2020.
Milliman’s Corporate Pension Funding Study analyses the 2020 financial disclosures of the 100 largest U.S. corporate defined benefit (DB) pension plans and looks ahead to what 2021 may bring.
