Paul Kitson

Partner at EY. Led some of the largest pension derisking deals (BA, ITV, MNOPF). Interested in life expectancy and sustainability. Views my own.

Not the best photo sorry (and it looks like our coffee machine is operated by a giraffe!) but if you want a coffee (or gin!) and are at the #plsa investment conference, then come and see us at our stand (also keen to talk #esg and #fiduciarymanagement )

Hey Twitter Friends - with this whole post-COVID flexible working thing - we all agreed shorts in the office okay, no?

[Paul Kitson @PensionKit]

Super looking forward to chairing this session with @aubreydegrey and @sjayolshansky It was lots of fun when I did it last year - be great to hear what’s been happening with #ageing #longevity over the last year from these two leaders in the field.

Proud (in my tiny way) to have supported the great work done by @YMCA_TG over 2020. Please take a moment to consider this.

Enjoyed writing this piece with the great Howard Kearns, sharing some of my views on the future of longevity hedging, and covering younger members (where a lot of the risk resides): https://t.co/POj7UUriow

Doing some colouring in with my youngest this morning (as you do). The 3 (randomly - I thought) selected colours she handed me all appear to be on-brand @PwC colour palette. Who says branding/marketing doesn’t work!

Really excited to be sponsoring this exciting (virtual!) conference. Looking forward to discussing the impact Covid will have on longevity assumptions and derisking transactions. See you there #longevityleaders

[Longevity Leaders @longevityleader]

We'll be exploring the impact of #COVID19 on #longevity assumptions with @actuarynews Rothesay Life @ActuaryByDay @Prudential @AonRetirementUK at the #longevityleaders Virtual Experience. Find out more https://t.co/qetH6fvVbL

Most importantly for the government, they hope that most GPs might now fall outside the taper system, removing the disincentive to work. Very high earners, those with Adjusted Income over £300k, will also see their Annual Allowance fall from £10k to £4k. 2/2 @PwC_UK #budget2020

[Paul Kitson @PensionKit]

This chancellor has chosen to leave the pensions tax system largely as it is, but to increase the Annual Allowance tapering threasholds by £90k. So, we still have all the complexities of the current pensions tax system but fewer people caught in the net. 1 /n @PwC_UK #budget2020

Delighted to have taken part in this. I think the piece raises some really interesting questions for pensions funds, insurers, reinsurers and, well, all of us!

[Longevity Leaders @longevityleader]

What is the impact of scientific, medical and socioeconomic trends on life expectancy?
Many thanks to @sjayolshansky @aubreydegrey @ActuaryByDay & @PensionKit for their time.

@dscullylimerick @jasonomahony I do fear we may need a (hopefully modest) combination of all 3 in order to rebalance our pensions systems and ensure they are sustainable.

[Paul Kitson @PensionKit]

@MyMoneyAlive Thanks @MyMoneyAlive - I know, isn’t it sweet! You would have thought we had the weight of the world on our shoulders! My band mates pull it rather better than me. They actually look cool - I just look like I’m very mildly constipated.

[Paul Kitson @PensionKit]

Just found this. Takes me back. My rock and roll life before becoming an Actuary!

[Paul Kitson @PensionKit]

@eavels78 Hey @eavels78 how you doing buddy. Must be time for our 20 year Ovahead reunion? I’m sure we’ve got that 3rd album in us!?!

[Paul Kitson @PensionKit]

@deValoisPens Thanks @deValoisPens , a quick check of amazon shows our second album (weirdly still available and a bargain at 99p) is 1,842,830th in the best sellers chart - so I won’t give up the day job!

[Paul Kitson @PensionKit]

@jane00evans Ha ha. I know. They do seem a little unnecessarily disbelieving!
