Shifting buy-in / out market dynamics – how can your scheme benefit?
Last year we saw a seismic shift in the market, with demand for buy-ins and buy-outs rocketing on the back of improved funding levels, and insurers reporting a 50%+ increase in the number of pension schemes seeking quotations.
Our latest research reveals how these dynamics have stabilised as market volumes reach 'cruising altitude'. Buy-out funding levels and demand for insurance continues to be high, but increased interest in longer-term run-on and alternative endgame strategies is having a smoothing effect on future demand. At the same time we’ve seen an expansion in insurer capacity to comfortably support over £50bn of new business a year at competitive pricing, with established insurers and new entrants contributing positively to the market.
Watch our webinar where the authors of the report share highlights and discuss key questions for trustees and corporate sponsors such as:
- When framing your endgame strategy, what are the alternatives and is insurance really a question of 'when' not 'if'?
- Are market dynamics shifting in favour of trustees, and how are schemes taking advantage of this?
- Will current record activity inevitably result in post-transaction bottlenecks, and how can schemes manage the post-transaction process effectively?
