Sumario: This 1989 volume examines the economic rationale for and effects of the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC), the US federal agency that insures corporate or private sector defined-benefit pension plans. The author, former chief economist of the PBGC, contends that the institution was initially created as a too-generous insurance provider in that benefits were not correctly priced relative to risk and exposure. The result was a system subject to moral hazard and redistribution between firms with well-funded pensions to those with poorly-financed funds. He explores ways to convert the scheme to a privatized system
