Investment Returns in Defined Benefit (DB) Pension Plans Outperformed Those in Defined Contribution (DC) Plans --
NEW YORK, May 22, 2013 — Investment returns in defined benefit (DB) pension plans outperformed those in defined contribution (DC) plans — predominantly 401(k) plans — in 2011 by the widest margin since the mid-1990s, according to new analysis by Towers Watson (NYSE, NASDAQ: TW), a global professional services company. The difference in 2011 investment results counters a recent narrowing of the gap between DB and DC plan performance.
