Actuarial Consulting

Increased levels of trustee responsibility, the mounting cost of scheme design and maintenance, occasional funding gaps, and changing mortality trends are just some of the things changing the pension landscape.

No surprise then that so many in the industry are finding it difficult to reconcile the competing needs of their business with those of their trustees. But unless these conflicts are addressed, there is a danger of ill-advised and short-sighted decisions being made.

JLT's consulting actuaries have a proven record in designing and reviewing benefit programmes. The range of actuarial services they provide result in a well-considered, pragmatic, and tailored review of your circumstances. They can give advice on effective investment strategies, exposure to risk and the whole practice of pension remuneration in general. They report back to you with realistic, manageable choices, which can be finely balanced with alternative strategies if required.

Depending on how you wish to work, they can simply offer their findings before stepping back or, if you prefer, they can attend trustee meetings to help with any decisions that need to be made. These intuitive skills have been built up from JLT's insight into how some of the largest corporate pension schemes operate, as well as an understanding of the relationship between one scheme's fortunes and another.
