Pricing long-dated cash flows of pension funds – Determination of a good long-term interest rate for discounting very long-dated pension cash flows

  • Tom Kasperski Tom Kasperski

Pension funds are promising very long-dated cash flows to their participants (up to 100 years), but financial instruments are only available up to 30 years. However, for calculating their funding ratio pensions funds must use a discount rate. In this paper it will be shown how we can find a good long-term interest rate for discounting very long-dated pension cash flows.
