WEB SESSION

9 Oct 2023

How Visualization&Computer Science (AI) Could Support Pension Funds

The supreme body of the pension fund (board of trustees) is responsible for the overall management of the pension fund. The non-transferable and inalienable duties of the supreme body include the following tasks among others: the setting of the financing system and comprehensibly designing, monitoring, and controlling the asset management to improve the returns and benefits for the members of the pension fund. Since being a member of the board of trustees is not a full-time job, the scope of duties is enormous: meeting the aforementioned legal requirements requires a lot of time and expertise. Pension fund accredited actuaries, investment consultants, auditors as well as pension fund management teams should fully support the board of trustees to make proper decisions.

The reliable forecast of liabilities is very important for the determination of the pension funds' financing system and its control (with risk budgeting). Since many liability parameters depend on the development of yield curves and inflation, it is worthwhile to prepare the analysis of their historical data, visualize them and additionally forecast them reliably.

The aim of this web session is to show how useful the yield curve and inflation forecasting are with the deep learning approach, the visualization of the results and the liability forecast based on them. These approaches are implemented using Python (Anaconda/Jupiter) and R-Project. This type of analysis helps the board of trustees to make their decisions and to better understand the forecast results (compared to affine models). In addition, we will show that such approaches are useful for forecasting international accounting results (IFRS, US GAAP, IPSAS) and for preparing asset allocation to be the strong third contributor.

Organised by the EAA – European Actuarial Academy GmbH.

Participants

The web session is suitable for pension fund actuaries and actuarial professionals, pension fund managers and IT developers for pension fund administration tools who are directly or indirectly involved in providing actuarial and investment advice to pension funds and collective foundations with occupational pension benefits. In addition, these topics may also be useful for pension fund boards of trustees and auditors for international accounting.

Technical Requirements
Please check with your IT department if your firewall and computer settings support web session participation (the programme Zoom is used for the web session). Please also make sure that you are joining the web session with a stable internet connection. 

Purpose and Nature

The aim of this web session is to provide insights into the approach to forecasting liabilities, inflation, and yield curves for risk budgeting analysis - including the reliable deep learning approach.

Language

The language of the web session will be English.
