A pound spent on pension’s as good as salary – the new golden rule
I published a blog recently on the need for the DWP to take notice of the real concerns of the ASA. It got some really interesting comments made on various sites mainly opposing the ACA’s pessimism. Interestingly the pessimism of the actuaries mirrors … Continue reading

Some of our pensioners are unwell
I’ve not read anything so silly as this http://www.professionalpensions.com/professional-pensions/news/2105510/stv-slashes-liabilities-bespoke-mortality-exercise for a long time. If you can’t read the story via the link, KPMG are delighting in having got the STV Trustees to change their mortality assumptions after they’d collected eveidence that most of … Continue reading

That ETV debate in full
Sometimes people’s comments on blogs are more interesting than the blog itself- this is certainly the case in a blog I wrote last week on “Enhanced Transfer Values” the thrust of which is that there are better ways to de-rsik defined benefit pension plans than by giving members cash bungs to transfer out theirguaranteed rights.

There are better ways to de-risk than ETVs
The only pension schemes which you cannot transfer out of are the Basic State Pension, State Second Pension and NEST (yes – odd that a DC plan is in that mix). Continue reading

What to do with pension trustees
The skills, the committment and the experience of trustees is undoubted. They are a resource that is given for free for the good of all.

Do them a favour – give your older workers a hand!

Pensioners of defined benefit pension schemes are the happy beneficiaries of their companies foresight and generosity in establishing and maintaining that pension. Organisations that have established … Continue reading
