5 Stress Testing Public Pensions Keith Brainard Research Director National Association of State Retirement Administrators New Mexico Public Employees Retirement Association Board of Trustees Meeting March 2019

6 Presentation Overview Definitions and purpose of stress testing, sensitivity analysis, and risk assessment Stress testing and risk assessment among public retirement systems Stress testing and risk assessment standards and models 2

7 Stress Test Definition A public pension stress test evaluates the effect on the plan s funding level and cost of projected adverse investment and contribution events. A stress test is also known as a scenario analysis. 3 Examples of questions answered in a stress test: What will the plan s funding level be if investment returns average 6.0 percent over the next 20 years? How much will the plan cost rise if employers make only 75 percent of required contributions?

8 A Sensitivity Analysis Is Different From a Stress Test A sensitivity analysis tests the effect on the plan of different actuarial assumptions and methods. 4 For example: What would be the effect on the plan s funding level if the investment return assumption was lower by two percent? How would the plan s required cost change using a different amortization method and period? Sensitivity analysis is not new to public pension plans.

9 Risk Assessment A risk assessment is broader than a stress test and a scenario analysis, and may include elements of both, as well as other factors. Risk assessments are not new to public pension plans. 5

10 Stress Testing, or Scenario Analysis Risk Assessment Sensitivity Analysis Lower projected investment returns Insufficient contributions Different actuarial assumptions and methods: Lower investment return Reduced amortization period Improved mortality assumption Other Factors Membership decline Stochastic projections Qualitative factors, e.g., political environment 6

11 A Brief History of Stress Testing in the US Interest in stress testing for banks grew sharply following the global financial crisis The financial crisis revealed the stress tests previously used by banks to be insufficient in identifying and measuring the sources and magnitude of financial stress Per the Dodd-Frank Act, the Federal Reserve conducts annual stress tests of banks with $50+ billion in assets, and some other non-bank financial entities Dodd-Frank also requires smaller banks to conduct their own stress tests, using prescribed methods and criteria

12 The Purpose for Stress Testing and Risk Assessment To strengthen pension planning and decision-making by enhancing understanding of: The type of risks a pension plan faces The likelihood of certain risks occurring The potential effects on the plan of different risks The sensitivity of plan costs, cash flows, and funding level to different risks

13 States and Statewide Pension Plans That Conduct Stress Tests and Risk Assessments Statutes in some states direct plans to conduct stress tests: California for CalPERS, Connecticut, Hawaii, New Jersey, Virginia Some public pension plans conduct risk assessments per statutory or board requirement: CalSTRS, per board requirement Colorado, by statutory requirement Pennsylvania Public Schools ERS, per board requirement Washington Office of the State Actuary, by statute

14 Stress Testing and Risk Assessment Standards and Models 10

15 California Actuarial Advisory Panel Model Disclosure Elements for Actuarial Valuation Reports December 2011 A sensitivity analysis showing the impact on current valuation results of changes in key assumptions and methodologies. A deterministic stress test projection of future results under appropriately chosen scenarios showing the effect of future actual experience different from that assumed in the valuation. A stochastic or probabilistic analysis on the impact of statistical variation in key experience elements including the actual future investment returns.

16 GASB 67/68, 2014 Requires pension plans to report their funding condition using an investment return assumption of one percent above and below their actual assumption Requires plans with a projected asset exhaustion date to calculate liabilities using a weighted average that includes a risk-free investment return beginning at the exhaustion date

17 Society of Actuaries Blue Ribbon Panel, 2014 Stress test recommendation: Stress tests of future financial positions should be disclosed to measure investment and contribution risks. Tests should constitute 30-year financial projections, and should be conducted using: returns at a standardized baseline and at returns of 3 percentage points more and less than the baseline assumption and funding entities making 80 percent of recommended contributions.

18 Actuarial Standard of Practice No. 51: Assessment and Disclosure of Risk Applies to actuaries conducting a valuation dated on and after 11/1/18 Requires the actuary to identify and assess the risks that may reasonably be anticipated to significantly affect the plan s future financial condition. This includes such risks as: Investment Asset/liability mismatch Interest rate Longevity and other demographic experience Contribution Methods may include, but are not limited to scenario tests, sensitivity tests, stochastic modeling, stress tests,

19 Pew Charitable Trusts Foundation for Public Pensions Risk Reporting Published late 2018 Recommends scenario and sensitivity analyses of specified low investment returns and insufficient contributions: 10- to 20-year projections of the effects of 5% investment returns, and an asset shock followed by 5% investment returns Plans receiving 80% of required contributions Measurement of the sensitivity of plan costs based on various investment return scenarios Investment return volatility simulations to measure the effect on contributions

20 Actuarial Standards Board Actuarial Standards of Practice Exposure Draft Would require calculation and disclosure of an investment risk defeasement measure (IRDM) when the actuary is performing a funding valuation. The IRDM is an obligation measure to reflect the cost to defease, i.e., eliminate the investment risk of the plan. Would permit discount rates to be based upon either U.S. Treasury yields or yields of fixed income debt securities. Still under consideration by the ASB

21 Stress Testing Bill Introduced in the Arkansas Legislature As introduced, the bill was based on Pew s recommendations for stress testing public pensions The introduced version was prescriptive and specific as to what should be measured and reported A consulting actuary charged with reviewing the bill criticized its specificity, saying the proposed statutory language would need to be revised as facts change about the state s pension plans In lieu of a statutory prescription, a better approach for public pension stress testing or risk assessment may be for the retirement board to establish standards and principles

22 Recommendation for PERA SmartSave Third Party Administrator RFP No. NM DC-001-FY19 March 28, 2018 NM PERA SmartSave RFP Evaluation Committee Jackie Kohlasch, PERA Board Chair Lawrence Davis, Municipal Board Member Greg Trujillo, PERA Deputy Director Dominic Garcia, PERA Chief Investment Officer Karyn Lujan, PERA SmartSave Plan Manager Paul Cowie, Meketa Investment Group

Slide 10

31 Summary of Key Updates to PERA Investment Procurement Policy

32 PURPOSE OF UPDATES The proposed updates are intended to clarify the relative responsibilities of the Board, the Executive Director, and the Chief Investment Officer with regard to procurement of investment services to align the Investment Procurement Policy with the recently amended Investment Policy. Otherwise changes were made to approve clarity and to generally update the policy. Slide 2

33 BACKGROUND INFORMATION Investment-related procurement by PERA is exempt from the New Mexico Procurement Code. Accordingly the Board must adopt standard process and procedures for investment services. The Investment Procurement Policy memorializes the procedures used by the Board, the Executive Director and the CIO to select investment service providers including investment consultants, investment managers, other investment service providers (such as custody banks and trading counterparties) and the third-party administrator for the SmartSave Plan. PERA s current Investment Procurement Policy needs to be updated to incorporate revisions to the Investment Policy approved by the Board in The proposed revised Investment Procurement Policy was reviewed by and adopts updates proposed by the Board s fiduciary counsel. Slide 3

34 KEY UPDATES The proposed amended policy describes all investment-related service providers that will be subject to the policy. See Section 4, p. 2. Definitions have been revised to conform to current terminology, practices, and the Investment Policy and the SmartSave Investment Policy. See Section 5, pp Slide 4

35 KEY UPDATES RFP AND RFI PROCESSES AND EXEMPTIONS Criteria for selecting the RFP or RFI process are clarified. See Section 6(a), p. 5. In accordance with PERA governance changes, the policy identifies certain decisions relating to investment-related contracts that are exempt from the RFP or RFI process including terminations, extensions, transitions, and impracticability and provides that justifications for those decisions be made by the CIO in consultation with the Executive Director. See Section 6(b), pp Slide 5

36 Key updates Exemption from RFP and RFI Processes for Illiquid Investments The proposed amendments describe the process for identifying illiquid investments that are not appropriate for the RFP or RFI process. The proposed amendments describe and clarify the general criteria for vetting a prospective illiquid investment manager. See Section 7(b), pp Slide 6

37 KEY UPDATES PUBLIC NOTICE The provision for public notice for an RFP was revised to reflect current practices. The principal means of providing public notice shall be electronically through the PERA Website. Public notice shall also be provided through print and other media as may be commercially reasonable. Public notice shall also be provided to service providers that have shown an interest in providing the service that is the subject of the solicitation. See Section 8, p. 8. Slide 7

38 KEY UPDATES BOARD AUTHORITY The Board has final authority over procurement of: The Board Strategic Consultant (currently Wilshire) The Smart Save Investment Consultant (currently Meketa) The SmartSave Third-Party Administrator (currently Nationwide) Direct the ED to terminate a contract awarded as the result of a Conflict of Interest See Section 14, p. 15 Procurement for these services shall be through the RFP process. See Section 9(a), p. 8 Slide 8

39 KEY UPDATES CIO AUTHORITY The CIO has final authority over selection of: The CIO Investment Consultants (currently Albourne and TorreyCove) Liquid and Illiquid Investment Managers Other Service Providers (counterparties and custody bank). Selection of Investment Consultants shall be through the RFP Process. The RFI process may be used for selection of Liquid Investment Managers and Other Service Providers. See Sections 9(a),(c) pp Slide 9

40 KEY UPDATES RFP AND RFI PROCESSES The basic process remains the same. Updates reflect the character of specific services to be procured through the RFI process: Provides for justification of evergreen contracts for investment managers Incorporates restrictions in the PERA Act, e.g. limits on thirdparty marketers Provides for indefinite terms with 30-day termination for the custody bank Clarifies that a response to an RFP or RFI is disclosable under IPRA Raises the no-contact period specified in RFP or RFI solicitation to a policy-level requirement See Section 9(d), pp Slide 10

41 KEY UPDATES EVALUATION OF PROPOSALS The Board evaluates proposals under its authority according to the same procedure as the current Policy (i.e. through an evaluation committee designated by the Board Chair), while the Chief Investment Officer manages the RFP or RFI process for the Board. The CIO evaluates proposals under his authority according to the 5-step review process adopted for the Investment Division. The selection criteria for investment managers is essentially unchanged. The selecting authority must create a written record of the selection. See Section 12, pp Slide 11

42 Termination of Contract or Other Appropriate Action for Wrongful Conduct In the event that the Board determines that violation of the New Mexico Government Conduct Act or paragraph of the PERA Employee Code of Conduct materially impacted the award of a contract under this Policy, and that termination of the contract or other appropriate action is consistent with applicable law and the Board s fiduciary duties to PERA members, the Board may direct the Executive Director to terminate the contract, or take other appropriate action. This provision shall be incorporated expressly in any contract entered into under the authority of this Policy and such contract shall expressly provide that action taken by the Board or Director hereunder shall not constitute an event of default or other event causing adverse action by the other contracting parties. See Section 14, pp. 15. Slide 12
