Description: Several modern retirement arrangements, including lifetime pension pools, allow retirees to convert a single premium into income for life that varies with investment and mortality experience. It is anticipated that there will be an increase in the number of lifetime pension pools in the future. There are, nonetheless, some challenges that might slow down the potential increase in the number of lifetime pension pools. This session will present the results of recent research reports jointly sponsored by the Society of Actuaries and the Canadian Institute of Actuaries, addressing two challenges: 1. the lack of efficient and reliable ways to communicate risk to members2. the optimality of lifetime pension pool design elements. Attendees will further their understanding of these topics and how they may be applied in the future.

Description: How might retirement income strategies be designed and their suitability assessed when retirees may differ substantially in their objectives, preferences and personal circumstances? Gain a wide-ranging overview of the key elements involved in formulating retirement strategies, drawing on the report, Primer on Retirement Income Strategy Design and Evaluation, which was recently released by the Society of Actuaries (SOA) Research Institute's Aging and Retirement Strategic Research Program. Hear about three types of income objectives-income floor, income target and income optimization-and how they imply different retirement strategies along with a different set of metrics to evaluate outcomes. We will also touch on key member attributes to account for: The nature of income risk, approaches to investing and drawing down on available assets to generate income, and how stochastic modeling can support the analysis. You will find something of interest in this session, regardless of prior familiarity with strategies for retirement.

This webcast provides a wide-ranging overview of the key elements involved in formulating retirement strategies, drawing on the “Primer on Retirement Income Strategy Design and Evaluation” that was recently released by the SOA. It will cover three types of income objective – income floor, income target and income optimization – and how they imply different retirement strategies along with a different set of metrics to evaluate outcomes. It will also touch on: key member attributes to account for; the nature of income risk; approaches to investing and drawing down on available assets to generate income; and how stochastic modelling can support the analysis.
