  • WTW launches significant upgrade to market-leading modeling platform with new deferred pension capabilities

    July 22, 2026 by WTW

    NEW YORK, July 21, 2026 — WTW (NASDAQ: WTW) today announced the release of the newest version of RiskAgility Financial Modeler (FM) U.S. Library, its market-leading modeling platform for life insurers. RiskAgility FM U.S. Library 7.4 introduces a new Deferred Pension Annuity (DPA) application, developed primarily for Pension Risk Transfer (PRT) transactions and valuations of existing pension blocks with deferred lives.

    The DPA application models benefit payments for participants in a defined benefit pension plan under multiple retirement ages and forms of payment, producing projected cashflows and reserves.

    One of the most significant features added to the U.S. Library since the prior release is a new deferred Pension Annuity (DPA) application for pensioners who have not yet started pension benefits. The DPA application models benefit payments for participants in a defined benefit pension plan under multiple retirement ages and forms of payment, producing projected cashflows and reserves. It is primarily intended for Pension Risk Transfer (PRT) transactions and valuations of existing pension blocks with deferred lives.

    Kim Steiner, North America Life Practice Leader, Insurance Consulting and Technology, WTW, said: “For more than a decade, insurers have relied on RiskAgility FM U.S. Library to support pricing for many of the largest PRT transactions in the U.S. Expanding those capabilities to deferred pension annuities enables clients to address an even broader range of opportunities using the same trusted platform.

    By combining our deep industry experience supporting U.S. PRT pricing with new deferred annuity capabilities, RiskAgility FM continues to help insurers tackle the market’s most complex transactions.”

    “Pricing in the U.S. PRT market requires solutions that can support increasingly diverse pension specifications. By combining our deep industry experience supporting U.S. PRT pricing with new deferred annuity capabilities, RiskAgility FM continues to help insurers tackle the market’s most complex transactions.”

    Specifically, the DPA application supports the following features:

    • Multiple decrements across different states, including active employment, retirement, termination, disability, and death.
    • Variety of annuity types, including single life, joint life, certain periods, and lump sums.
    • Early retirement or late retirement commencement ages that reduce or increase payouts.
    • Projected cashflows and reserves using independent assumptions for experience versus valuation.
    • Flexible assumption formats allowing users to model a variety of benefit designs.
