解释:
Time Horizon
While both retirement plans can be considered long-term, the time horizon of the defined benefit pension plan is shorter than that of the defined contribution plan because of its frozen status.
No new participants will be joining the pension plan and it will be wound down over time as existing participants and their beneficiaries die.
Liquidity Constraints
The defined benefit pension plan has a greater liquidity constraint due to its older workforce and the fact that the benefit will be paid out over the indeterminate lives of the participants and their beneficiaries.
The possibility of early retirement and lump-sum payouts amplifies this situation.
Further, the pension plan’s benefits are indexed to inflation, increasing the magnitude of benefit payouts going forward.
