(1)The U.S. qualified pension plan is fully funded under Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, funding rules as of January 1, 2024 and no minimum required funding is expected for 2024.
(2)The nonqualified plans of the Company are unfunded.
(3)The framework for the Company’s pension oversight process includes monitoring of potential settlement charges for all plans. Settlement accounting is triggered when either the sum of all settlements (including lump-sum payments) for the year is greater than service plus interest costs or if more than 10% of the plan’s projected benefit obligation will be settled. Because some of Citi’s significant plans are frozen and have no material service cost, settlement accounting may apply in the future.
Change in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)
