So are living standards, inequality, quality of life etc. Pensions strategic asset allocation & ALM must holistically take into account the macro drivers of inflation risk, interest rate risk, longevity risk and market risk EMEA.INST 15

Source: SSGA Defined Contribution team, December All calculations made using mortality rates from the Society of Actuaries RP-2014 mortality tables for healthy annuitants using a 50/50 blend of male and female mortality and ISG capital market forecasts for Q4/2015. The median life-expectancy at age 65 in these tables is 85. Drawdown assumptions include a 2% cost of living adjustment and a retirement age of 65. Self-managed drawdown: we assume the participant has all their retirement assets in a 35/65 portfolio with an expected return of 4.5% and a risk level of 7.3%. The drawdown rate is the annual rate at which a participant could draw down their assets with a 95% probability of not exhausting their assets during their lifetime. Hybrid: we assume the participant uses 25% of their retirement assets to purchase a 50% joint and survivor annuity with a return of premium benefit and a 2% COLA which starts payments at age 80 and invests the remainder of the assets in a 35/65 portfolio with an expected return of 4.5% and a risk level of 7.3%. The hybrid drawdown rate is the continuous annual rate at which the participant could draw down their assets between the ages 65 and 80 and use the remainder of their assets to supplement their annuity income after the age of 80. Annuity: The annual payment that the participant would receive if they used all their retirement assets to purchase an immediate 50% joint and survivor annuity with a 2% COLA and a return of premium benefit starting payments at age 65. Calculations for the self-managed drawdown and the drawdown portion of the hybrid solution are based on simulations (simulation count = 100,000) and do not reflect the effects of unforeseen economic and market factors on decision-making. Annuity prices are based on MetLife quotes for December Expected returns are based upon estimates and reflect subjective judgment EMEA.INST 29

Diversification does not ensure a profit or guarantee against loss. Unless otherwise noted, the opinions expressed are those of the author who is a researcher at State Street. Views and opinions are subject to change at any time based on market and other conditions. Equity securities may fluctuate in value in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions. Bonds generally present less short-term risk and volatility than stocks, but contain interest rate risk (as interest rates raise, bond prices usually fall); issuer default risk; issuer credit risk; liquidity risk; and inflation risk. These effects are usually pronounced for longer-term securities. Any fixed income security sold or redeemed prior to maturity may be subject to a substantial gain or loss EMEA.INST 32

35 Important Disclosures Diversification does not ensure a profit or guarantee against loss. Asset Allocation is a method of diversification which positions assets among major investment categories. Asset Allocation may be used in an effort to manage risk and enhance returns. It does not, however, guarantee a profit or protect against loss. Increase in real interest rates can cause the price of inflation-protected debt securities to decrease. Interest payments on inflation-protected debt securities can be unpredictable. SSGA Target Date Fund are designed for investors expecting to retire around the year indicated in each fund s name. When choosing a Fund, investors should consider whether they anticipate retiring significantly earlier or later than age 65 even if such investors retire on or near a fund s approximate target date. There may be other considerations relevant to fund selection and investors should select the fund that best meets their individual circumstances and investment goals. The fund s asset allocation strategy becomes increasingly conservative as it approaches the target date and beyond. The investment risks of each Fund change over time as its asset allocation changes State Street Corporation All rights reserved. Tracking Number: EMEA.INST Expiration Date: 28 February EMEA.INST 33
