001 - Thinking Stochastically in a Point Estimate World October 27, 2019 5:15 PM - 6:55 PM

Actuaries are being challenged to do more stochastic modeling, which basically means calculating and showing a range of potential outcomes. Yet, the world always seems to just want to know “THE number.” How can actuaries effectively do both…communicate the needed and desired answer as well as illustrate the range of potential answers?

In this session presenters review language in the actuarial code of conduct language and ASOPs that govern actuarial communications and ranges of outcomes, show some examples of illustrating point estimates and ranges of outcomes, and have a robust discussion about these issues.

It’s a proven fact that using stories to communicate your messages and ideas is the single most powerful way to connect with customers, investors and employees – and keep them connected.

Today’s corporate leaders like stories because they make their companies human. Customers like hearing stories because they build trust and make relationships human and personal. Individuals like telling stories because it makes them more interesting, amusing and popular.

StorySpeak has three main components: Talking in Color to make people sound more interesting, amusing and popular, i-kola to create unforgettable word-pictures on the fly and Story-Telling to drive emotional engagement and enhance business performance.

109 - Variable DB Benefits for Multiemployer Plans October 28, 2019 10:45 AM - 12:00 PM

The multiemployer pension system faces a dual challenge.

These challenges have led some boards of trustees to consider adopting variable annuity designs. Speakers explore the pros and cons of variable annuity plans, the design options that exist, and the legal and regulatory framework in which these plans operate.

207 - ASOP 51 in Practice for Public Sector Plans October 28, 2019 2:00 PM - 3:15 PM

Actuarial Standard of Practice No. 51 discusses the “Assessment and Disclosure of Risk Associated with Measuring Pension Obligations and Determining Pension Plan Contributions.” This standard is effective for any actuarial work product with a measurement date on or after November 1, 2018, and applies to actuaries when performing the following:

  • Funding valuation of a pension plan;
  • Pricing valuation of a proposed pension plan change that would, in the actuary’s professional judgment, significantly change the types or levels of risks of the pension plan; and
  • Risk assessment that is not part of a funding valuation or pricing valuation.

Given this timing and scope, it is likely that we have some actual (albeit early) experience with compliance with this standard. Speakers at this session discuss their early experience complying with ASOP 51, including:

  • Are plans disclosing quantitative or qualitative information or both?
  • Are plans actually using these measurements or merely disclosing them?
  • Are the plan sponsors interested in this information?
  • Does anyone really care about this information, or is it too early to tell?

509 - Risk Mitigation: Back to Basics October 29, 2019 10:10 AM - 11:50 AM

The asset-liability space yields a never-ending stream of acronyms and marketing labels, but underlying all of them are a few basic truths. Retirement plan cash flows have characteristics similar to those of long-term bonds. This characteristic, along with the fact that pension funds are typically held for the long term, give pension plans critical advantages over other types of investors. They can invest in higher-yielding long duration assets, some virtually without risk, and hold them for long periods of time through numerous market cycles. Of course, different plan designs and varying maturity levels add wrinkles in terms of the particular risk-reward tradeoffs faced by any given plan, and different regulatory schemes can act to accentuate or obfuscate the capital market connections. Three actuaries with long experience in asset-liability management provide viewpoints on each of these issues.
