Defined Benefit Pension Plan Services

How companies spend their benefit dollars has a direct effect on the financial well-being of their employees as well as the financial statements, tax bill, and ability to compete for employees.

As actuaries and consultants, we work with businesses to develop and execute appropriate strategies to provide retirement benefits to their employees. We offer actuarial advice and information so management can make smart business decisions. Our actuaries can design programs to help make companies more competitive in the marketplace.

Our actuarial consulting and defined benefit administration services include:

  • Actuarial valuations - calculation of minimum required and maximum deductible contributions under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) sections 412 and 404
  • Financial statement reporting - determination of pension expense under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 87 and preparation of footnote disclosure under FASB Statement No. 132
  • Benefit determination - preparation of employee benefit certifications upon termination and annual benefit statements for current employees
  • Government filings - preparation of annual IRS Form 5500 and PBGC filings
