Unreported deaths are increasing. The decline of the Death Master File and the rise of disparate data sources have made it more challenging than ever for pension plans to identify decedents and locate missing participants/beneficiaries. But inaccurate data can lead to costly overpayments that could threaten the longevity of the fund. Industry experts will explain best practices for preventing overpayments, partnering with your beneficiaries when an overpayment is made, what the regulations and SECURE 2.0 require, and the rights of the pensioner.
