Economic challenges presented by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, combined with rising costs and a fast-changing regulatory environment, means that having a clear, real-time view of risk has never been more important.
More recently, we’ve seen some Canadian regulators urge plan sponsors to perform stress-testing to plan for further market shocks. As a result, plan sponsors are seeking absolute clarity on cashflows and funded status with effective ‘what-if’ testing to mitigate liquidity risk. At the same time, consultants and asset managers are seeking ways to understand the main drivers of asset-liability risks and determine downside risk budgets in order to develop effective asset allocation, LDI, and glidepath strategies for their clients. Additionally, the pension industry is currently being challenged to ascertain best value in terms maintaining or transferring longevity risk to insurers.
Join us to hear from leaders at Moody’s Analytics Buy-Side Solutions as they address the trends and challenges facing Canadian pension plans, consultants, and investment managers when it comes to protecting against downside risk. Owais Rana, Senior Director, North America, Michael Carse Director, Product Management we will be bringing this to life with realistic examples played out on Moody’s Analytics’ risk management solution for the defined benefit pensions market, the PFaroe™ DB platform. |
