The Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation would like to reunite $280 million in unclaimed pensions with their "missing" owners in 2014.
The agency, which insures pension plans, said that there are more than 31,000 people who haven't claimed pension benefits they are owed. Those individual benefits range from 12 cents to nearly $1 million.
Six states account for the bulk of the unclaimed pension assets. New York had the highest number of missing participants at 6,678, with $40.33 million that remains unclaimed. Illinois has 4,344 missing plan participants who are owed a whopping $85.36 million.
