Complete Details

The Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) is proud to present an intensive seminar focused on the evolving landscape of Pension Risk Management. As the UK regulatory environment shifts, actuaries and financial professionals face unprecedented challenges in maintaining fund stability while navigating volatile global markets. This seminar provides a deep dive into the technical and strategic aspects of managing defined benefit and defined contribution schemes in the current economic climate.

Throughout the day, attendees will engage with leading experts who will dissect the impact of the latest funding codes and the role of "productive finance" in pension portfolios. We will explore sophisticated modeling techniques for longevity risk, interest rate hedging, and the integration of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) factors into long-term risk assessments. The seminar aims to bridge the gap between theoretical actuarial models and practical implementation, ensuring that practitioners leave with actionable insights.

A significant portion of the event is dedicated to the "New Normal" of higher interest rates and what this means for de-risking strategies, including buy-ins and buy-outs. We will host a series of panel discussions featuring representatives from the Pensions Regulator and leading consultancy firms to provide a 360-degree view of the industry. This is not just a lecture series; it is a collaborative forum designed to foster innovation in pension strategy. Attendees will participate in breakout sessions focused on case studies, allowing for peer-to-peer learning and the sharing of best practices across the UK pensions sector. By attending, you will stay ahead of the curve in actuarial science and ensure your clients or organizations are resilient against future financial shocks.

In-depth analysis of the new DB funding code. Expert panels on bulk annuity market trends. Workshops on integrating ESG into pension risk models. Networking lunch with industry-leading actuaries. Interactive Q&A with UK regulatory representatives.
