Professor Jens Perch Nielsen and his co-authors (from Cass Business School) find new solutions to three of the most current and challenging problems in pension research:

  1. How to make pension products so easy to understand that pensioners can self-select the risk and investment strategy that’s right for them within minutes
  2. How to automate the sharing of easily understood mortality risk between customers
  3. How to ensure that companies and customers can avoid paying for their investment guarantees through the automatic sharing of easily understood investment guarantee risk between customers
