Budget Act Includes Increase in PBGC Premiums; Flat-rate Premium Due Date is Pushed Back for Large Plans | Practical Law
President Obama signed into law H.J. Res. 59, the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013, which among other things provides for increases to the flat-rate and variable-rate Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC) premiums beginning in 2015. In a separate final rule, the PBGC announced that it would push the flat-rate premium due date for large plans back to the variable-rate premium due date (October 15 for calendar year plans), effective for 2014.
