A 100 basis point rate drop adds millions to your liability overnight.

How we work

Wherever your plan stands, we can help.

100s of terminations since 2015. Every discipline in house, nothing outsourced.

01

Plan Termination

We built the most efficient approach to termination in the industry.

Full standard termination of your pension plan: strategy, participant elections, insurer auction, settlement, and final filings. One team, one timeline, one clean exit.

02

Custom De‑risking Strategies

Not ready to terminate? We shrink your plan strategically.

Lump sum windows, retiree lift outs, targeted settlements, and interest rate arbitrage that cut premiums and volatility now while positioning the plan for a full exit later.

03

Cut Ongoing Actuarial Services in Half

Everything your current actuary does. At half the cost.

Same valuations, same certifications, same filings, every number looked at through a de-risking lens. We see plans with 1,000 participants where 800 are inactive. That doesn't happen overnight, and with us managing the plan it never will. Modern technology lets us do the work at a fraction of what you're paying today.
