如下

Mukasa serves as a trustee of Channel’s defined-benefit pension plan. The plan is legally distinct from Channel’s assets. The company has made contributions sufficient to maintain a fully funded status. It is a tax-exempt fund and must hold 20% of its assets in domestic government bonds in order to maintain its tax-exempt status. The plan’s key objective is to meet current and future pension obligations. The plan’s current allocation is 60% global equities, 20% domestic government bonds, 15% domestic corporate bonds, and 5% cash. (2020 mock PM)

Which approach is least relevant to a strategic allocation for Channel’s pension plan?

选项:

A.

Shortfall risk.

B.

Heuristic approach.

C.

Surplus optimization


题目中已经说了The company has made contributions sufficient to maintain a fully funded status.那不是应该不存在shortfall risk吗?

嗨,从没放弃的小努力你好:


题目中已经说了The company has made contributions sufficient to maintain a fully funded status.那不是应该不存在shortfall risk吗


确实fully funded就是没有shortfall risk了,但是其实也就说明C基金是考虑了shortfall risk的,在努力下减少这类风险。


因为题目问哪种方法与Channel养老金计划的战略分配最不相关?


看一下为什么A和C相对来说更加relevant。


题干中有两句话:


 The plan’s key objective is to meet current and future pension obligations.


目标是cover养老金的liability


The company has made contributions sufficient to maintain a fully funded status. 


以及保持fully funded状态。



Shortfall risk这个概念在机构IPS中出现得更多,本身是指组合的价值跌到超过某个临界值。这个概念对很多投资品都可以使用。


具体在养老金里面一般就是要求PV(assets)不得小于PV(liability),所以和题干中是不谋而合的


未来有两种途径可以减少shortfall risk,一种是增加assets return>liability discount rate。另外一种是公司就很有可能需要增加新的contribution来补足这个敞口(shortfall)。


Surplus optimization是 liability-relative allocation,和题干中要求cover未来的支出也是符合的。
