Get to know F&GWhat is a pension risk transfer (PRT) transaction?
A pension risk transfer (PRT) transaction occurs when a company transfers to F&G its obligation of making its employees’ defined benefit pension plan payments.
There will be no changes to the annuity benefits you accrued as a result of this transition. Retirees receiving a monthly annuity payment will have no change in that amount. Depending on withholding elections, there may be a small change to net payments.
You don’t need to take any action to prepare for the transition. You’re eligible for the same benefits or annuity payments, as applicable, through the annuity contract.
