How is the 3D Reset impacting corporate pension plans?
The 3D Reset has brought about significant changes that require investors to reassess their strategies. It is crucial for investors to reflect on their past actions and, in many cases, adopt a different approach. This entails reevaluating asset valuations, addressing new risks, and expanding their investment scope. It is time to be discerning, analytical and valuation focused once again. Schroders Solutions is well-positioned to assist investors in navigating this regime shift by offering expert insights and a diverse range of investment solutions tailored to navigate these changing dynamics.
What are the investment implications?
- Managing cash balance liabilities: Strategies with low duration and high income targets can help pension plan assets keep pace with less volatility
- Capturing market opportunity: More frequent funded status monitoring and revisiting the glidepath
- Revisiting end-game strategy: Pension Risk Transfer may not be the optimal solution and may leave the plan with riskier liability profile
- Diversification is key in the new regime: A more expansive toolkit can help reduce risk and reduce funded status volatility.
Our engagement always begins by understanding the plan’s unique liabilities along with the sponsor’s objectives and constraints to develop the most effective investment solution
