TriNet's minimum funding strategy for its clients?

• A. 60%
• B. 70%
• C. 80%
• D. 90%

Answer: (B)

Balancing funding adequacy with client cash flow is the idea being tested. The middle option represents a practical, moderate funding level that provides a solid baseline without overburdening the client’s liquidity. This level helps keep the plan reasonably funded to cover expected obligations while preserving cash for other business needs, smoothing budgeting and reducing year-to-year volatility. A lower target would leave the plan more exposed to funding gaps, increasing future uncertainty. A higher target would require significantly more cash up front, reducing flexibility for the client. For these reasons, the middle option is the best balance, aligning with TriNet’s aim to manage plan health without compromising liquidity.
