After rising for the first two months of 2024, discount rates fell in March by 11 basis points to 5.24%, which caused plan liabilities to rise $14 billion, to $1.299 trillion. Thanks to offsetting investment returns of 1.83%, the market value of PFI plan assets rose $19 billion to $1.373 trillion as of March 31.\n\n“Pension funded status improved for all three months of the first quarter, and strong market returns helped to offset the effect of March’s discount rate declines,” said Zorast Wadia, author of the PFI. “However, if the Fed cuts rates as expected and corporate bond discount rates continue to fall, the funded status gains may dissipate unless plan sponsors adhere to liability-matching investment strategies.”\n\nLooking ahead, under an optimistic forecast with rising interest rates (reaching 5.69% by the end of 2024 and 6.29% by the end of 2025) and annual asset returns of 9.8%, the funded ratio would climb to 115% by the end of 2024 and 130% by the end of 2025. Under a pessimistic forecast with similar interest rate and asset movements (4.79% discount rate at the end of 2024 and 4.19% by the end of 2025 and 1.8% annual returns), the funded ratio is projected to decline to 99% by the end of 2024 and 90% by the end of 2025.\n\nThe 2024 Milliman Corporate Pension Funding Study will be released later this month.
