World with Structure and City Behind It

Expertise

Our team is comprised of credentialed pension actuaries, with experience performing and reviewing pension and post-retirement medical valuations performed in accordance with IRS statutes and regulations, US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), and Governmental Accounting Standards (GASB). Our team is experienced in the risk management of pension plans. Whether your plan is ongoing or frozen, a strategy to manage the volatility of costs and funded status is of paramount importance. If the defined benefit plan is no longer a core offering of your business, setting an effective exit strategy and executing on it, is the most effective method of managing risk.
