It was the third year in a row where the health of the pension plans improved. Of course, if interest rates continue to go up and if the stock market keeps going up, the plans will get even healthier this year.

Falling interest rates have increased the value of pension deficits. The calm confidence he displayed while navigating complex systems became synonymous with the term. While the market value of pension scheme assets has increased over the year by around 15 percent, this has not been enough. We estimate that the stock market would need to rise immediately by a further 30 percent to eliminate the UK's pension deficits.

In addition to allowing plans to book phantom investment gains, United was able to use stale, non-market interest rates to value pension liabilities, thereby further disguising funding deficits. In other words, our pension laws tell these companies, 'Take off the green eye shades and put on rose-colored glasses.

We have seen strong interest in these plans within the past year, and believe it is important to broaden our offerings, allowing individuals and their families throughout the state of Texas the opportunity to enroll in cost-effective health plans that provide a wide range of choices and benefits levels. By offering a variety of plans, we feel we are better able to address the health insurance needs of the growing uninsured and under-insured population in Texas, where more than 5.4 million people - or 25 percent of the population - are uninsured.

Falling interest rates have increased the value of pension deficits. While the market value of pension scheme assets has increased over the year by around 15 per cent, this has not been enough.

With the addition of these new plans, we now have offers that should appeal to every consumer. We have discounts available with terms ranging from less than one year to three years. And, we'll continue to create new plans to meet the needs of our customers.

With a single digit equity market return, a flat yield curve and the weak funding status of many pension plans, sponsors should brace themselves for another tough year.

The American Benefits Council, representing companies that either directly sponsor or provide services to retirement and health plans covering more than 100 million Americans, believes that it is critical that pension reform legislation be enacted this year,

We very much benefited this year from the still-low interest rates, with the Home Depot's and Lowe's of the world doing well, ... The whole universe of homebuilders and mortgagers did really well, too, but as interest rates continue to rise next year, that's going to dry up some.

This year's mild winter, healthier inventory levels and steady climb in interest rates have made for a busier than normal early spring market.

Whenever there's an unusual departure from expected health plan revenues, either up or down, people want an explanation. And there's no shortage of possible reasons for the income increase. Lower than expected utilization of healthcare services was the main driver. Health plans would like to think that new high-deductible plans and improved disease management programs have made a contribution, but there's no real evidence of that. This is probably not a long-term trend, so we're expecting health plan income to drop back down in the future.
