German term or phrase: saldierungsfähig
Nach Vereinsrecht - und im Übrigen auch für die Anerkennung der ausgelagerten Vermögensmittel als „plan assets“ bzw. als saldierungsfähiges Vermögen nach den Vorschriften des Handelsgesetzbuches (HGB) - ist somit eine gewisse Eigenständigkeit des Vereins als Personenverband und Unabhängigkeit von den Treugebern erforderlich.

English translation:(here) deductible, offsettable
Explanation:
Rod,
This refers to the ability to deduct plan assets from pension provisions under German GAAP that was introduced by the BilMoG, which has watered down the old Verrechnungsverbot in the HGB. This also means that a new asset line item can be presented if the assets deducted from pension provisions exceed the amount of the pension provisions:

Aktiver Unterschiedsbetrag aus der Vermögensverrechnung
(excess of plan assets over pension liability)

The "saldierungsfähiges Vermögen" represents the assets that can be deducted from, or offset against, the pension liabilities.

disagree  Ted Wozniak: Not here. Also be very careful with SAP "English". Lots of bad legacy terms there.
