Actuarial Post Magazine Awards Winners Edition December 2024


Welcome to the Actuarial Post Awards 2024 winner’s edition and we hope you enjoy reading about their responses on having won their award. The awards this year were, once again I am in danger of repeating myself every year, but they were our biggest to date in terms of engagement and votes cast across all of the categories. I would like to take this opportunity to thank our sponsors Pension Insurance Corporation (PIC), Bolton Associates and Star Actuarial Futures for supporting our awards this year.

Guide to setting expense reserves under the new Funding Code

The new defined benefit (DB) funding code of practice (new Funding Code) requires all schemes to achieve funding levels that ensure low dependency on their sponsoring employer in the long-term. This means that schemes must strive for their funding position to be robust enough so that no further employer contributions are expected. To meet the objective of operating independently of employer support, in addition to having sufficient funds to meet the promised member benefits, schemes should be able to cover all their expected future expenses.

Smooth(ing) Operator

Private equity can be a great asset. It’s generally the most significant way to have any real world impact as an investor (eg infrastructure assets like renewable power, natural capital, or health- or climate- focused venture capital), and managers typically have more operational control than in public equities, so can do more with it. Moreover, past performance has generally been very strong. However, from a quantitative perspective, private market returns can’t be taken at face value, at least not as a direct comparator with public assets.
