3 Pension De-risking Introduction Pension De-risking Securitization of Pension Risk with Options DB pensions introduce significant risks Market downturns Low interest rates New pension accounting standards Improved life expectancy of retirees In January 2015, Milliman 100 Pension Funding Index (PFI) decreased to 79.6%, down from 83.5% in December 2014 (Milliman, 2015) In recent years, there has been a surge of interest from defined benefit (DB) pension plan sponsors in de-risking their plans. Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 3/26
4 Pension De-risking Tools Pension De-risking Securitization of Pension Risk with Options Buyouts transfer a proportion of the entire pension liabilities. Longevity hedges transfer the high-end longevity risk. Buyouts are more effective in improving firm value in the enterprise risk management framework (Lin et al. 2015). Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 4/26
5 Challenges of the Buyout Market Pension De-risking Securitization of Pension Risk with Options Buyouts generally have had lower business volume than longevity swaps in recent years. Capital intensive and relatively expensive: In December 2014, on average, the price of a buyout annuity transaction across US, UK, Ireland and Canada was 14% higher than the equivalent accounting liability (Mercer LLC, 2014). Expensive for firms with underfunded plans: DB firms have to satisfy a minimum funded status. Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 5/26
6 Contributions Introduction Pension De-risking Securitization of Pension Risk with Options We propose two gap type options that provide buyout financing. Pension funding option and pension buyout option Under-funded plans vs. fully funded plans We create a transparent pension funding index based on market indices and publicly available mortality tables. We show how to price these new pension de-risking securities considering investment risk, longevity risk, and interest rate risk. Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 6/26
7 Pension Funding Index Pension De-risking Securitization of Pension Risk with Options We use a market-based pension funding index to increase liquidity and reduce moral hazard and adverse selection. Pension funding index at time t, PFI t, PFI t = PAI t PLI t PLI t : pension liability index based on N(0) retired life cohort aged x 0 at time 0, PLI t = N(t) Pa x0+t t = 1, 2,, where N(t) is the number of survivors at t, P is the annual payment, and a x0+t is the immediate life annuity factor. PAI t : pension asset index Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 7/26
8 Pension Asset Index Introduction Pension De-risking Securitization of Pension Risk with Options PAI t is determined by the value of a market portfolio composed of I indices at time t. I PAI t = A i,t 1 (1 + r i,t ), i = 1, 2,, I ; t = 1, 2, i=1 A i,t 1 : amount invested in index i at time t 1 r i,t : return of index i in period t PAI 0 : predetermined pension asset with investment weights w i Periodic portfolio adjustment (when t = 1, 2, ) I PA t = A i,t = PAI t + k UL t 1 {ULt>0} N(t)P i=1 UL t : funding deficit UL t = PLI t PAI t + N(t)P k: amortization factor Portfolio rebalance can be easily incorporated. Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 8/26
9 Pension Options for Fully Funded Plans Pension De-risking Securitization of Pension Risk with Options Pension funding option: cover a future funding deficit and satisfy a minimum funding requirement for a future buyout. Pension funding option payoff: F w t = NA PLI 0 for t = 1, 2,..., n. NA: notional amount n: option period/term z: trigger funding index level K: strike funding level { PLI t (K PFI t ) if PFI t < z 0 if PFI t z, Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 9/26
10 Pension De-risking Securitization of Pension Risk with Options Pension Options for Fully Funded Plans (Cont d) Pension buyout option: not only fill the funding gap (up to K), but also cover the required buyout risk premium. Pension buyout option payoff: B w t = NA PLI 0 { PLI t (K PFI t + R t ) if PFI t < z 0 if PFI t z, for t = 1, 2,..., n. R t : buyout risk premium at time t (Lin et al, 2015) Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 10/26
11 Pension De-risking Securitization of Pension Risk with Options Pension Options for Under-Funded Plans Pension funding option payoff: Ft u = NA 0 if PFI t K PLI PLI t (K PFI t ) if z < PFI t < K 0 0 if PFI t z Pension buyout option payoff: Bt u = NA 0 if PFI t K PLI PLI t (K PFI t + R t ) if z < PFI t < K 0 0 if PFI t z Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 11/26
12 Pension Asset Index model Basic Framework Pension fund assets: S&P 500 index A 1,t, Merrill Lynch corporate bond index A 2,t and 3-month T-bill A 3,t. S&P 500 index A 1,t : Merton s jump-diffusion process (Merton, 1976) A 1,t = A 1,0 exp (α 1 1 N 1t 2 σ2 1 λ 1 k 1 )t + σ 1 W1t P + j=1 Y 1j α 1 : instantaneous expected return σ 1 : instantaneous volatility W1t P : standard Brownian motion with mean 0 and variance t N 1t : Poisson process with arrival of λ 1 per unit of time Y 1j : standard normal with mean m 1 and s.d. s 1 k 1 : expected percentage change in the S&P 500 index Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 12/26
13 Basic Framework Pension Asset Index model (Cont d) Processes of A i,t, i = 2, 3, as a geometric Brownian motion: da i,t A i,t = α i dt + σ i dw P it, i = 2, 3 α i : instantaneous expected return σ i : instantaneous volatility of asset i : standard Brownian motion with mean 0 and variance t W P it S&P 500 index A 1,t and Merrill Lynch corporate bond index A 2,t are correlated with Cov(W P 1t, W P 2t) = ρσ 1 σ 2 t, Monthly data from 1988 to 2010 are used to estimate parameters Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 13/26
14 Pension Valuation Rate Basic Framework Interest rate risk in pension risk management should be carefully considered. Incorporate the dynamics of pension valuation rate into pension options pricing. Cox-Ingersoll-Ross (CIR) model (Cox et al., 1985) dr p,t = ν (θ r p,t ) dt + σ p rp,t dw P p,t, ν: mean-reversion rate θ and σ p : long-term mean and instantaneous volatility W P p,t: standard Brownian motion Equally weighted average of US funding yield curve segment rates from August, 2008 to March, 2015 are used to estimate parameters. Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 14/26
15 Basic Framework Lee and Carter (1992) s Mortality Model One-year death rate q x,t for age x (x = 0, 1, 2, ) in year t (t = 1, 2,, K) ln q x,t = κ x + b x γ t + ɛ x,t, γ t = γ t 1 + g + e t, e t N(0, σ γ ) κ x and b x : age-specific parameters g: drift rate ɛ x,t and e t : normal errors with mean zero Data: U.K. male population mortality tables from 1950 to 2003 Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 15/26
16 Basic Framework Option Pricing Formulas For Fully Funded Plans Funding option for n-year term, in terms of the percentage of the nominal amount: PF w = 1 PLI 0 E Q [ e rτw N (τ w ) Pa x0 +τ w (K PFI τw ) +] Risk neutral Esscher measure is selected (Gerber and Shiu, 1994) N (t): survival evolution based on transformed mortality rates τ w = inf {t : PFI t < z, t {1, 2,..., n}} ( if the option is not triggered) Buyout option for n-year term: PB w = 1 PLI 0 E Q [ e rτw N (τ w ) Pa x0 +τ w ( (K PFIτw ) + + R τw )] = PF w + PR w Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 16/26
17 Basic Framework Option Pricing Formulas For Under-Funded Plans Funding option for n-year term: PF u = 1 PLI 0 E Q [ e rτu N (τ u ) Pa x0 +τ u (K PFI τu ) +] where τ u = inf {t : PFI t > z, t {1, 2,..., n}} ( if the option is not triggered) Buyout option for n-year term: PB u = 1 PLI 0 E Q [ e rτu N (τ u ) Pa x0 +τ u ( (K PFIτu ) + + R τu )] = PF u + PR u Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 17/26
18 Risk Parameters and Assumptions Example: Hypothetical Pension Options Pension Funding Index The pension cohort has the same mortality experience as the U.K. male population. At time 0, all plan participants reach the retirement age x 0 = 65. Pension asset weights (w 1, w 2, w 3 ) = (0.5, 0.45, 0.05), are rebalanced annually. Amortization factor k = 1/5.95 Pension valuation rate: r p,0 = 4.8%, ν = , θ = 4.78%, σ p = 0.03 Risk-free interest rate: r = 4% Market price of longevity risk (using Wang transform): λ EIB = , based on the European Investment Bank (EIB) bond issued in November 2004 Cox, Lin and Shi (GSU, UNL and UNL) Pension Risk Management with Funding and Buyout Options 18/26

25 Introduction We propose pension funding and buyout options. We design a pension funding index based on market indices and publicly available mortality tables to increase market liquidity and reduce moral hazard and adverse selection problems. We study how to price pension options while recognizing investment risk, longevity risk, and interest rate risk.
