The discovery comes following enhancements introduced by Mercer to its U.S. Pension Buyout Index (the Index).

Key Points: 
  • The discovery comes following enhancements introduced by Mercer to its U.S. Pension Buyout Index (the Index).
  • As of June 30, 2020, the new Index value was 97.7%, indicating that a hypothetical retiree buy-out transaction may cost 97.7% of the plans accounting obligations.
  • The revised methodology is more in line with the experience of the majority of Mercer clients who have executed retiree buy-outs and achieved a transaction price near or often below the accounting liability.
  • As such, we believe that the enhancements to the Mercer U.S. Pension Buyout Index more accurately reflect the economic reality in which we are operating.
