What happened to DB plans as a result of the funding rule changes and the significant PBGC premium increases included in MAP-21? And did the governance changes included in the legislation, such as the establishment of a PBGC Participant and Plan Sponsor Advocate, enhance the retirement system? Join our expert panelists in a retrospective of MAP-21 after 10 years.
