We're excited to share our fifth annual Risk Transfer Report – an overview and analysis of the pensions bulk annuity market.

2020 overview

Despite navigating a global pandemic, 2020 was a successful year for the risk transfer market and offered various opportunities to DB pension schemes.

Whilst there were fewer “mega-deals” in 2020 compared to 2019, smaller transactions and schemes returning to the market boosted demand. Attractive pricing was available from insurers for schemes able to move quickly and longevity swaps further increased in popularity. It was also a significant year for non-traditional risk transfer options.
