Advisory Committee members must 

have experience with employee 

organizations, employers who maintain 

defined benefit pension plans, the 

administration or advising of pension 

plans, or in related fields. Appointments 

are for 3-year terms. Reappointments are 

possible but are subject to the 

appointment process. 

The Advisory Committee’s prescribed 

duties include advising the Corporation 

as to its policies and procedures relating 

to investment of moneys, and other 

issues as the Corporation may request or 

as the Advisory Committee determines 

appropriate. The Advisory Committee 

meets at least six times each year. At 

least one meeting is a joint meeting with 

the PBGC Board of Directors. 

By February 19, 2024, the term of one 

of the Advisory Committee members, 

representing the general public, will 

have expired. Therefore, PBGC is 

seeking nominations for one seat. 

PBGC is committed to equal 

opportunity in the workplace and seeks 

a broad-based and diverse Advisory 

Committee. 

If you or your organization wants to 

nominate one or more people for 

appointment to the Advisory Committee 

to represent the general public, you may 

submit nominations to PBGC. 

Nominations may be in the form of a 

letter, resolution or petition, signed by 

the person making the nomination. 

PBGC encourages you to include 

additional supporting letters of 

nomination. PBGC will not consider 

self-nominees who have no supporting 

letters. Please do not include any 

information that you do not want 

publicly disclosed. 

Nominations, including supporting 

letters, should: 

• state the person’s qualifications to 

serve on the Advisory Committee 

(including any specialized knowledge or 

experience relevant to the nominee’s 

proposed Advisory Committee position 

to represent the general public); 

• state that the candidate will accept 

appointment to the Advisory Committee 

if offered; 

• include the nominee’s full name, 

work affiliation, mailing address, phone 

number, and email address; 

• include the nominator’s full name, 

mailing address, phone number, and 

email address; and 

• include the nominator’s signature, 

whether sent by email or otherwise. 

PBGC will contact nominees for 

information on their political affiliation 

and their status as registered lobbyists. 

Nominees should be aware of the time 

commitment for attending meetings and 

actively participating in the work of the 

Advisory Committee. Historically, this 

has meant a commitment of at least 15 

days per year. PBGC has a process for 

vetting nominees under consideration 

for appointment.
