Click below for individual articles, or download a full PDF of Financial Director's Decisions Supplement 2008 - Pensions and Employee Benefits
Pensions Bill:
Not
an option: How changes to the Pensions Bill will affect private schemes
Personal accounts will be a step forward, but compelling companies to contribute
may have unintended consequences
Actuaries:
Love
actuary? It's tough times ahead for the actuary profession
The actuarial profession is likely to fall out of favour as pension schemes
launch more and more litigation against their advisers
Best practice:
You have been
warned – now is the time to examine DC schemes
Transferring from DB to DC schemes may help shed the financial risk of final
salary, but it will not absolve companies from their responsibility to tell
employees what they are getting into
Volatility:
Safe
haven: Lehmans downfall changes the face of liability-driven investment
The collapse of Lehmans brings a new danger to pension funds: the risk that
counterparties in swap deals could go under overnight. Is there a safe way to do
liability-driven investment?
Longevity:
Work
to live: Increasing longevity and the strain on investment schemes
The fact that we are all living longer is a good thing. But increasing longevity
is putting a strain on investment strategy, forcing trustees to look at their
schemes' mortality risks in more detail
Transfer values:
Everyone's
a winner: the best way to transfer out of final salary schemes
Offering transfer packages to high-earning employees in order to reduce final
salary pensions liabilities is dangerous. But get it right and it's a win-win
situation for all involved
