The performance of missing transverse momentum (p^→_T^miss) reconstruction algorithms for the CMS experiment is presented, using proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, collected at the CERN LHC in 2016. The data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb^-1. The results include measurements of the scale and resolution of p^→_T^miss, and detailed studies of events identified with anomalous p^→_T^miss. The performance is presented of a p^→_T^miss reconstruction algorithm that mitigates the effects of multiple proton-proton interactions, using the "pileup per particle identification" method. The performance is shown of an algorithm used to estimate the compatibility of the reconstructed p^→_T^miss with the hypothesis that it originates from resolution effects.
