Defined Benefit Plan [Abstract] |
Retirement Benefits | Retirement Benefits The Company maintains qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans for some of its U.S. and non-U.S. eligible employees. The Company’s policy for funding its tax-qualified defined benefit pension plans is to contribute amounts at least sufficient to meet the funding requirements set forth by U.S. law and the laws of the non-U.S. jurisdictions in which the Company offers such plans. The target asset allocation for the Company's U.S. Plan was 64% equities and equity alternatives and 36% fixed income and at June 30, 2017, the actual allocation for the Company's U.S. Plan was 64% equities and equity alternatives and 36% fixed income. The target asset allocation for the Company's U.K. Plans, which comprise approximately 81% of non-U.S. plan assets at December 31, 2016, was 46% equities and equity alternatives and 54% fixed income. At June 30, 2017, the actual allocation for the U.K. Plans was 46% equities and equity alternatives and 54% fixed income. The assets of the Company's defined benefit plans are diversified and are managed in accordance with applicable laws and with the goal of maximizing the plans' real return within acceptable risk parameters. The Company generally uses threshold-based portfolio re-balancing to ensure the actual portfolio remains consistent with target asset allocation ranges. The components of the net periodic benefit cost for defined benefit and other post-retirement plans are as follows:

In October 2016, the Company modified its U.S. defined benefit pension plans to discontinue further benefit accruals for participants after December 31, 2016. At the same time, the Company amended its U.S. defined contribution retirement plans for most of its U.S. employees to add an automatic Company contribution equal to 4% of eligible base pay beginning on January 1, 2017. This new Company contribution, together with the Company’s current matching contribution, provides eligible U.S. employees with the opportunity to receive a total contribution of up to 7% of eligible base pay. In addition, the U.S. qualified defined benefit plans were merged effective December 30, 2016.

In March 2017, the Company modified its defined benefit pension plans in Canada to discontinue further benefit accruals for participants after December 31, 2017 and replaced them with a defined contribution arrangement. The Company also amended its post-retirement benefits plan in Canada so that individuals who retire after April 1, 2019 will not be eligible to participate, except in certain situations. The Company re-measured the assets and liabilities of the plans, based on assumptions and market conditions on the amendment date. The weighted average actuarial assumptions utilized to calculate the net periodic benefit costs for the U.S. and significant non-U.S. defined benefit plans are as follows:
Combined U.S. and significant non-U.S. plans | Pension Benefits |  | Post-retirement Benefits
June 30, | 2017 |  |  | 2016 |  |  | 2017 |  |  | 2016 |
Weighted average assumptions: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Expected return on plan assets | 6.64 | % |  | 7.07 | % |  | — |  |  | — |
Discount rate | 3.40 | % |  | 4.11 | % |  | 3.64 | % |  | 4.12 | %
Rate of compensation increase* | 1.77 | % |  | 2.44 | % |  | — |  |  | — |
*The 2017 assumption does not include a rate of compensation increase for the U.S. defined benefit plans since future benefit accruals were discontinued for those plans after December 31, 2016. The Company made approximately $120 million of contributions to its U.S. and non-U.S. defined benefit plans in the first six months of 2017. The Company expects to contribute approximately $136 million to its U.S. pension and non-U.S. pension plans during the remainder of 2017. Defined Contribution Plans The Company maintains certain defined contribution plans for its employees, the most significant being in the U.S. and the U.K. The cost of these U.S. and U.K. defined contribution plans was $65 million and $38 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
