Abstract
The paper will discuss the proposed regulatory frameworks (market valuation of liabilities) in Europe and the implications it will have on pension provision. The impact on current DB pension schemes and insured solutions with guarantees will be discussed in detail especially on the sustainability of the current guaranteed products. Collective solutions that are capital efficient under the proposed regulatory framework will be outlined as a viable alternative to Individual DC.
