8 Ryan ALM, Inc. The Solutions Company Ryan-ALM Bad Pension Rules ________________ Rules :Do NOT Mark to Market SMOOTH Assets over 5 years High Yield, Single Discount Rate for Liabilities Leads to :Wrong Funded Ratio Calculation Bad Asset Allocation Decisions Bad Contribution Decisions Bad Benefit Decisions

9 Ryan ALM, Inc. The Solutions Company Ryan-ALM Problem : Liability Valuation _________________________ Single Discount Rate Not market interest rates (ASOP = ROA, PPA = 2 year weighted average) Present Value calculated annually/triennially (Months delinquent) Liability Term Structure not transparent (Short, Intermediate, Long, Very Long)

10 Ryan ALM, Inc. The Solutions Company Ryan-ALM FAS 158 _______ Effective December 15, 2006 Same as FAS 87 (Amended) and FAS 106 on Discount Rates: “The objective of selecting assumed discount rates is to measure the single amount that would provide the necessary future cash flows to pay the pension benefits when due. Notionally, that single amount, the projected benefit obligation would equal the current market value of a portfolio of high-quality zero coupon bonds whose maturity dates and amounts would be the same as the timing and amount of the expected future benefit payments”.

11 Ryan ALM, Inc. The Solutions Company Ryan-ALM Pension Protection Act (PPA) _________________________ Effective Calendar Year 2008 Extends Pension Funding Act of 2004 thru 2007 Discount Rate Methodology: 1.Modified Yield Curve Hypothetical Corporate zero-coupon bonds Three interest rates (0-5, 5-20, 20+ years) Smoothed over 24 months Corridor of 90% to 110% 2. Actual Spot Rates Real issues

12 Ryan ALM, Inc. The Solutions Company Ryan-ALM GASB / ASOP 27 ______________ Section 3.6 Selecting an Investment Return Assumption and a Discount Rate “Generally, the appropriate discount rate is the same as the investment return assumption. But for some purposes, such as SFAS No. 87 or unfunded plan valuations, the discount rate may be selected independently of the plan’s investment return assumption”.

15 Ryan ALM, Inc. The Solutions Company Ryan-ALM Problem : Generic Indexes _______________________ Represent the market not client liability schedule Generic Indexes do NOT represent clients’ true objective Client liability schedule is unique to each client (snowflakes) Confucius : Given Wrong Index … Get Wrong Risk/Reward
