Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the development of pension risk management in Europe and the United States, aiming to provide insights for the development of the second and third pillars of pension insurance in China [2]. Group 1: Pension Risk Transfer (PRT) Overview - PRT is a financial arrangement where companies transfer the payment responsibilities of defined benefit (DB) pension plans to insurance companies, aiming to reduce risks such as longevity risk, investment risk, and interest rate risk [4][5]. - The emergence of the PRT market in Europe and the U.S. is driven by multiple factors, including aging populations, accounting standards requiring market value measurement of pension liabilities, and the complexity of pension asset-liability management [5][6]. Group 2: Historical Development Stages - Initial Stage (Pre-1980s): Pension plans evolved from informal commitments to structured DB plans, with companies facing increasing financial pressure due to aging populations and investment volatility [8]. - Emergence Stage (1980-2000): The introduction of regulatory frameworks like ERISA in the U.S. and the establishment of PBGC laid the groundwork for PRT transactions, with early examples like General Motors' group annuity transaction [9][10]. - Growth Stage (2000-2015): The PRT market saw accelerated development due to advancements in actuarial technology and regulatory support, with significant transactions such as General Motors transferring $25 billion in pension liabilities [14][15]. - Boom Stage (2015-2025): The U.S. and U.K. markets experienced explosive growth in PRT transactions, with notable deals like AT&T's $31 billion transaction in 2022, pushing annual PRT transaction volumes to new highs [16][17]. Group 3: PRT Mechanisms - Buy-in: Companies purchase annuity contracts from insurers to cover pension liabilities while retaining legal responsibility on their balance sheets [22]. - Buy-out: Companies transfer pension liabilities to insurers, removing these liabilities from their balance sheets entirely [22]. - Longevity Swap: A financial agreement that transfers longevity risk from pension plans to insurers, which can further transfer this risk to reinsurers [22][23]. Group 4: Role of Insurance Companies - Insurance companies play a crucial role in the PRT process by taking on pension liabilities and managing longevity risk through various financial instruments, thus transforming their role from asset managers to long-term liability bearers [26][28]. - The development of a multi-layered risk transfer structure involving insurers and reinsurers enhances the capacity for managing longevity risk and supports the evolution of pension systems [28]. Group 5: Challenges in China - China's pension system primarily relies on defined contribution (DC) plans, lacking the historical context of DB plans that facilitate risk transfer, leading to a deficiency in systematic longevity risk management capabilities [30][31]. - The absence of a robust regulatory framework specifically addressing pension liabilities and longevity risk hampers the development of a comprehensive risk management system in China's insurance industry [30]. Group 6: Recommendations for Development - To establish a pension risk transfer mechanism in China, it is suggested to leverage the third pillar of the pension system, focusing on transforming individual accounts into lifetime annuity products [36][38]. - The creation of a national pension reinsurance platform is recommended to facilitate risk sharing and enhance the capacity of insurance companies to provide long-term guarantees [38].
