Examples
Even if a company isn't able to fulfill its obligations, there's the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (PBGC), which insures vested pension payments (for many but not all pension plans) up to a certain sum annually for pensioners aged 65 and up.
Like other U.S. government agencies, PBGC is mandated to consider cloud computing in its IT strategies.
When the PBGC steps in and takes over a pension plan, it provides payment for pension benefits up to certain maximum amounts, which are indexed for inflation.
