Using detailed actuarial and financial information provided by the U.S. Department of Labor, we construct a longevity variable for each pension plan and then measure the impact of varying life expectancy assumptions across plans and over time on pension plan liabilities. The results indicate that each additional year of life expectancy increases pension liabilities by about 3 to 4 percent. This effect is not only statistically highly significant but also economically: each year of additional life expectancy would increase private U.S. DB pension plan liabilities by as much as $84 billion. 410 0$aIMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;$vNo. 2012/170 606 $aDefined benefit pension plans$zUnited States 606 $aLongevity$zUnited States 606 $aInsurance$2imf 606 $aLabor$2imf 606 $aPublic Finance$2imf 606 $aDemography$2imf 606 $aPension Funds$2imf 606 $aNon-bank Financial Institutions$2imf 606 $aFinancial Instruments$2imf 606 $aInstitutional Investors$2imf 606 $aNonwage Labor Costs and Benefits$2imf 606 $aPrivate Pensions$2imf 606 $aSocial Security and Public Pensions$2imf 606 $aHealth: General$2imf 606 $aEconomics of the Elderly$2imf 606 $aEconomics of the Handicapped$2imf 606 $aNon-labor Market Discrimination$2imf 606 $aInsurance Companies$2imf 606 $aActuarial Studies$2imf 606 $aPensions$2imf 606 $aHealth economics$2imf 606 $aPopulation & demography$2imf 606 $aInsurance & actuarial studies$2imf 606 $aPension spending$2imf 606 $aHealth$2imf 606 $aAging$2imf 606 $aExpenditure$2imf 606 $aPopulation and demographics$2imf 606 $aFinancial institutions$2imf 606 $aPopulation aging$2imf 607 $aUnited States$2imf 615 0$aDefined benefit pension plans 615 0$aLongevity 615 7$aInsurance 615 7$aLabor 615 7$aPublic Finance 615 7$aDemography 615 7$aPension Funds 615 7$aNon-bank Financial Institutions 615 7$aFinancial Instruments 615 7$aInstitutional Investors 615 7$aNonwage Labor Costs and Benefits 615 7$aPrivate Pensions 615 7$aSocial Security and Public Pensions 615 7$aHealth: General 615 7$aEconomics of the Elderly 615 7$aEconomics of the Handicapped 615 7$aNon-labor Market Discrimination 615 7$aInsurance Companies 615 7$aActuarial Studies 615 7$aPensions 615 7$aHealth economics 615 7$aPopulation & demography 615 7$aInsurance & actuarial studies 615 7$aPension spending 615 7$aHealth 615 7$aAging 615 7$aExpenditure 615 7$aPopulation and demographics 615 7$aFinancial institutions 615 7$aPopulation aging 676 $a332.152 700 $aKiff$b John$01681925 701 $aKisser$b Michael$01715899 701 $aSoto$b Mauricio$01082925 701 $aOppers$b S$01715900 801 0$bDcWaIMF 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820534803321 996 $aThe Impact of Longevity Improvements on U.S. Corporate Defined Benefit Pension Plans$94110859 997 $aUNINA
