The aging of the population has far-reaching implications for employment levels, health care, housing, and employee benefits around the world. On August 16, 2006, the US Congress enacted the Pension Protection Act to address corporate defined benefit and defined contribution retirement savings plans. This Research Note discusses the impact of the Act on defined benefit assets and on the technology decisions of chief technology officers at investment firms. The regulation affects only US firms, but the aging of the global workforce presents firms worldwide with similar problems of underfunding and the need for changes to portfolio strategies to improve investment performance.
