Retirement Benefits [Abstract] |
Retirement Benefits | Retirement Benefits The Company maintains qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans for its U.S. and non-U.S. eligible employees. The Company’s policy for funding its tax-qualified defined benefit retirement 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 defined benefit plans. 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 |  |
September 30, | 2023 |  | 2022 |  |  |  |
Weighted average assumptions: |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Expected return on plan assets | 5.31 | % |  | 4.56 | % |  |  |  |
Discount rate | 5.16 | % |  | 2.28 | % |  |  |  |
Rate of compensation increase | 3.16 | % |  | 2.16 | % |  |  |  |
The target asset allocation for the U.S. plans is 50% equities and equity alternatives and 50% fixed income. At September 30, 2023, the actual allocation for the U.S. plans was 48% equities and equity alternatives and 52% fixed income. The target allocation for the U.K. plans at September 30, 2023 is 14% equities and equity alternatives and 86% fixed income. At September 30, 2023, the actual allocation for the U.K. plans was 14% equities and equity alternatives and 86% fixed income. The Company's U.K. plans comprised approximately 79% of non-U.S. plan assets at December 31, 2022. 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 net benefit cost or credit of the Company's defined benefit plans is measured on an actuarial basis using various methods and assumptions. The components of the net benefit credit for defined benefit plans are as follows:
