PBGC Premium Revenue (1980-2001)
Single-Employer Program
- The increase in premium revenues beginning in 1986 reflects increases in the flat-rate
premium, the addition of the variable-rate premium based on plan underfunding
levels after 1987 and the phasing-out of the cap on the variable-rate premium.
- The decline in premium revenue since 1996 reflects somewhat improved plan
funding and an increase in the number of underfunded plans qualifying for
exemption from paying the variable-rate premium.
