TY - JOUR T1 - How Should Pension Funds and Corporates Think About Cost/Benefit<br/>of Pension Risk Transfer? JF - Special Issues SP - 58 LP - 60 VL - 2014 IS - 1 AU - James Staveley-Wadham Y1 - 2014/09/21 UR - https://pm-research.com/content/2014/1/58.abstract N2 - This article looks at existing tools available for managing defined benefit pension risks, including investment solutions and the transfer of the risk to an insurance company. Managing DB plans is less and less about using an HR benefit to help attract, retain, and motivate the workforce, and more and more about dealing with the financial issues of managing longevity, interest rate, and inflation risks. In addition, sponsors have to grapple with the regulatory and compliance requirements associated with pension provision. The author runs through the thought process required to choose the appropriate options, weighing the pros and cons of each solution. ER -
