GENERATING A FUNDING AND INVESTMENT STRATEGY ASSOCIATED WITH AN UNDERFUNDED PENSION PLAN

摘要

Methods and apparatuses are described for generating a funding and investment strategy associated with an underfunded pension plan. A computing device determines an amount of funding required to fund the pension plan to a predetermined liability limit, where the amount of funding required is adjusted. The computing device determines an amount of debt to incur based on the amount of funding required and determines a tax savings amount based on an interest rate associated with the amount of debt to incur. The computing device adjusts the amount of debt to incur based on the tax savings amount and contributes the incurred debt amount into the pension plan as a pension plan asset. The computing device generates a strategic plan for investing the contributed pension plan asset in long-duration bonds. The computing device acquires long-duration bonds that have characteristics consistent with the strategic plan.
