Longevity risks in Pension Systems viewed from the pay-out phase in Chile Guillermo Larrain R. Superintendente Superintendencia de Valores y Seguros Chile Sao Paulo, Mayo 2008
Agenda I. Hard facts: longevity is a world wide phenomena. II. Consequences: longevity affects all pension systems: • DB/DC, • PAYG/Capitalization, • Closed/Open III. Looking for solutions in the Chilean DB payout phase
Ageing is affecting all. Chile is ageing relatively more Ageing, an international comparison Life expectancy at birth (both genders)

Preliminary conclusions • Ageing is universal • It is more acute in countries like Chile • It may have more impact in rich countries because they had developed more generous PAYG pension systems • Two broad conclusions: – Retirement age is critical in view of ageing populations – Women appear to outpace men's ageing. Huge gender issue with vast implications (social, political, economic, etc…)

Impact on Pay-as-you-go pension systems Dependency ratios 100% 45 90% 40 Increasing 80% Overall 35 dependency ratios 70% 30 require: 60% 25 • Increasing state 50% 20 financing (to be 40% 0-14 years 15 financed by taxes or 30% 20% Old age (% pop, right axis) 10 reducing other 10% 5 expenditures) 0% 0 • Increasing personal contributions 1950 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 2005 2010 2015 2020 2025 2030 2035 2040 2045 2050 Source: SVS, based on INE Ageing progresses without clear bound and birth rates stall, hence The previous process is unbound: enormous fiscal pressure whose political economy is complex (tendency to delay decisions evident)
Impact on Capitalization pension systems Pensions are diminished (for any size of personal savings, it is necessary to finance more years of survival): the buffer becomes people´s pensions instead of public finances… or so it seems at first glance Interphase Phase I : accumulation Phase II : Payout Retirement Lifetime age This is a system. As such, the outcome depends on all of its parts
Impact on Capitalization pension systems Net savings Personal contributions (size, frequency, Pension = starting age) Life expectancy Employers contributions (matching) at retirement State contributions (incentives) Retirement age Financial returns in accumulation phase Financial returns in payout phase Costs Operational during accumulation phase Transactional in the interphase of acc/payout Operational during payout phase The ongoing pension reform in Chile took care of all of this elements plus a critical redefinition of the zero-first pillar

Consequences for Life Insurance Companies (annuity providers, DB) Spreads are reduced inducing LICs to look for ways of compensation Potential increase in investment risks Incentive to reduce operational costs: potential market concentration Increase in capital and reserve requirements to face increased pension obligations Increased competition may induced “commercial war” with unintended consequences on undesired practices
Agenda I. Hard facts: longevity is a world wide phenomena. II. Consequences: longevity affects all pension systems: • DB/DC, • PAYG/Capitalization, • Closed/Open III. Looking for more solutions in the Chilean DB payout phase
1. Promote voluntary savings: Individual (APV) Individual Voluntary Savings 600.000 4.500 Scheme (APV) 4.000 • Tax incentive (suitable 500.000 therefore only for Number of accounts 3.500 income tax payers: 400.000 3.000 upper middle class) Balances 2.500 • More financial 300.000 2.000 institutions allowed • Attractive liquidity 200.000 1.500 feature : unless 1.000 mandatory savings, 100.000 500 APV can be consumed before retirement. - - Sepl-02 Sepl-03 Sepl-04 Sepl-05 Sepl-06 Sepl-07 Ju 2 Ju 3 Ju 4 Ju 5 Ju 6 Ju 7 Ma -02 No -02 Ene -02 Ma -03 Ma -03 No -03 Ene -03 Ma -04 Ma -04 No -04 Ene -04 Ma -05 Ma -05 No -05 Ene -05 Ma -06 Ma -06 No -06 Ene -06 Ma -07 Ma -07 No -07 7 y -0 y -0 y -0 y -0 y -0 y -0 v -0 • Taxes are paid when v v v v v r r r r r r Ma consumption takes Número de cuentas Saldo acumulado (MMUS$) place
2. Promote voluntary savings: Collective (APVC) Colective Voluntary Savings Scheme (APVC, just introduced) • Tax incentive with liquidity feature as in APV • Financial institutions allowed as in APV New features • Matching contribution from employer, tax deductible • All APVC plans offered to employees are open to them: no discrimination permitted • Worker has rights over her savings and earns the right over the matching contribution after some time. Possible use as an incentive device to promote permanence in the firm (hence, training, productivity…) • Minimum number of workers within the firm must adhere to any savings plan to make the firm eligible for tax benefit: this grants access to lower middle classes
3. Tougher conditions for early retirement Tougher conditions for early retirement and use of excedent of free disposal. Early retirement. • Before 2004: resulting pension should be 110% of minimum pension and greater than the 50% of the last 10 years income. • After 2004: same criteria but new parameters 150% of minimum pension and 70% of last 10 years income.. Excedent of free disposal. • Antes de 2004: Igual que retiro de ELD • Ley Año 2004: Igual que retiro de ELD Gradually increase in legal retirement age, still a possibility for the future
4. The challenge of the interphase: The SCOMP system Diminish asymmetries of information, promote healthier competition reducing fees charged : the SCOMP system Objective: promote a clear and comparable market for annuities and other retirement products Electronic market for Life Insurance Companies, Pension Fund Administrators, Brokers Blind quotation mechanism: each LIC compete for providing the best possible annuity to an unknown client Client can iterate (even organizing an auction among providers) or postpone decision (except in case of auction) Joint supervision: SVS - SAFP Started 19 de agosto de 2004.

5. New Investment Regime for Life Insurance Companies Better risk-adjusted returns on assets • More flexible approach focused on financial and operational risks. It should allow investments on more variable income instruments looking for a better risk- return profile • Hedging instruments desirable • Critical good governance of LICs • Risk based capital requirements
6. Potential new pension products : Differed Annuity Differed Annuity. • It allows to fix the terms of an annuity during the working life period. This annuity, coupled with other pension products will consist in the final pension. • It transfers longevity risk to the insurer • It allows future pensioners to take advantage of good market conditions for buying annuities. It requires significant financial advise.
7. Potential new pension products : Bonds indexed to relevant inflation Inflation protection • In Chile annuities are indexed to inflation measured by the Consumer Price Index • Consumption bundle of retired persons eventually coincide with the average worker (relevant for CPI purposes) but it gradually moves significanly away from it as the person gets older • The older the person, less relevant is CPI as relevant measure of inflation • Challenge: • Create a Pensioner Price Index • Design a market for instruments linked to this: government, private companies (health institutions,…) including derivatives or outright subsidies
8. Potential new pension products Longevity Bonds A longevity bond promises a yearly payment indexed to a mortality index which replicated the behavior of the pensioners Pago del Bono (CLP bn) 10 8 6 4 2 - 1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 17 19 21 23 etc Años
8. Potential new pension products Longevity Bonds • LICs would obtain an instrument to hedge against longevity risk. Indexation could consider size of payments or maturity of the instrument • Hedge is adequate, even though not perfect as it relies on average mortality, not LIC specific • Issuer • Must have interest in exposing itself to this kind of risk • Derivative market desirable • Transfer longevity risk to a reinsurer. • Calculation of official mortality tables critical: Which entity will do it? Public or private? How frequent?
