Pension Plan De-risking: Legal Challenges and Opportunities
April 16, 2015
Winston & Strawn hosted an eLunch titled “Pension Plan De-risking – Legal Challenges and Opportunities” on Thursday, April 16, 2015, at 12:15-1:30 p.m. (Central).
Defined benefit pension plans represent a growing financial risk for many employers. To reduce the risk and volatility inherent in unfunded pension obligations, employers are increasingly turning to de-risking strategies. Each de-risking strategy involves various technical issues, and employers need to stay up to date on the latest legal developments in this rapidly changing area.
Steve Flores from our employee benefits and executive compensation practice presented a practical, interactive presentation that investigated the options available to manage and mitigate pension risk and the associated legal requirements. This eLunch examined the following areas:
- Trends in pension plan de-risking
- In-plan investment strategies
- Lump-sum windows and annuitization of liabilities
- Plan freezes
- Plan spin-offs and terminations
- Additional considerations related to benefit formulas, non-qualified SERPs, and multiemployer pension plans
