Retirement Matters: PBGC and Open Government

PBGC and Open Government

We’d like to highlight some recent updates to PBGC’s Open Government webpage. The page includes important PBGC data sets—underlying data that supports PBGC programs. Additionally, the page provides information about how the American public can provide input to help make PBGC’s work and performance even better and more engaging.

In accordance with the President's Open Government Initiative, PBGC has posted an updated version of its Open Government Plan [PDF], version 3.0. Our Plan reflects input from senior policy, legal, and technology leadership in PBGC, as well as our customers and visitors.

We’ve posted two new data sets: Multiemployer Pension Plan Terminations, Mergers, and Insolvencies and Summary of Changes; both are updated annually. These data sets present machine accessible downloadable information that was previously unavailable online.

These data sets can be used to increase agency accountability, improve public knowledge of the agency and its operations, create economic opportunity and further the agency's mission.

PBGC welcomes stakeholder input on these data sets and other ways PBGC can promote the values of transparency, participation and collaboration in government.

To help us do a better job of serving you, please consider the following:

• What PBGC data or content should we make more readily available?
• Which PBGC online service or data would you like to be easier to use?
• Which PBGC service would you like to use on your mobile device?

Please direct feedback to Opengov@pbgc.gov.
