Abstract:

The stricter funding requirements called for under the Pension Protection Act of 2006 (PPA), along with financial reporting changes in accounting rules, have sparked an increased interest in the financial health of pension funds in the U.S. and on improving the linkage of the asset strategy to the liability requirements of these funds.
These “new” strategies, offered as Liability-Driven Investing (LDI) solutions, frequently are touted as the answer to the risks that pension plans must deal with under the new, more stringent legal and accounting requirements.
Aon Consulting believes that liability-based strategies are part of the solution, but comprehensive pension risk management, with a strategic view of where you want to be five or ten years hence, requires an integrated look at plan design, funding policy, financial policy, and investment policy. We will touch upon all of these areas here, with a focus on investment strategies in managing pension risk.
