Our seventh annual Risk Transfer Report comprehensively analyses the pensions bulk annuity market.

2022 overview

2022 was a year of significant economic uncertainty and market volatility, but one where the bulk annuity market remained buoyant and kick-started a very busy 2023. This volatility led to excellent pricing opportunities for some pension schemes already in the market, and, for other schemes, significant improvements in their funding position such that their long-term goal to buy-out is now a viable target in the short term.

In light of this, 2023 is set to be a very busy year in the risk transfer market as many schemes re-assess their end game journey plans and seek quotations. It’s now more important than ever for schemes to ensure that their broking process is appropriate and that they are transaction-ready from a governance, investment and data/ benefits perspective if they want insurers to view their pension scheme as a high priority case in 2023 and beyond.
