HRadio: Longer life expectancy changing pension scheme assumptions

Increased life expectancy is good news, but what are the implications for final salary pension schemes? Mags Shackleton of Mercer UK’s Retirement, Risk and Finance practice provides HRadio’s Richard Klein with an overview of how increased life expectancy is affecting pension costs, what the Pensions Regulator has to say about setting the life expectancy assumption, and tools sponsors can use for setting and justifying assumptions in their schemes.  (Podcast, 13 Nov 2009)
