Pension De-Risking
Solutions for Managing Defined Benefit Pension Obligations
The Presentation:
Retirement benefit obligations, such as those associated with defined benefit (DB) plans, are straining the finances of employers. It’s no surprise many plan sponsors have turned to Pension Risk Transfer to create greater contribution certainty, reduce financial statement volatility, and assure strategic flexibility- with the goal of shifting focus from their pension back to their core business initiatives. This session examines proven solutions for addressing pension plan benefits while preserving the promises that have been made. We will also take a look at the key characteristics that would help identify a viable risk transfer candidate.
