3DANALYTICS is a secure online application giving you cost-effective daily analytics about your scheme.

Having accurate daily analytics helps you manage your scheme properly. It puts you in control  with real-time information, allowing you to make better decisions about your scheme's funding and investments.

What does it do?

3DANALYTICS tracks your scheme's funding position on the bases you choose. Typically, trustees monitor technical provisions and a long-term or buy-out target. 3DANALYTICS can also track information for your sponsor, like IAS19. 

3DANALYTICS also answers "what if" questions. Its interactive modelling can test different assumptions and shows how economic factors (like interest rates and inflation) can affect funding. What's more, it does this in real time, so no more waiting for results.

3DANALYTICS can also receive real time updates to member data, and incorporate the latest information to help facilitate your decision making. See On Demand Valuations for more information.

How does it work?

Under the bonnet, 3DANALYTICS links to our phenomenally detailed benefit projections. This encompasses all your scheme's details, like full member data, member-by-member longevity, detailed modelling of different pension increases and the precise impact of yield curve changes, i.e. how different market prices for interest and inflation at different terms affect your liabilities. On the asset side, we build in your actual scheme benefit cashflows and update regularly once new asset information is received to keep 3DANALYTICS true. This gives you the confidence that your decisions on funding are based on an accurate and complete picture.

Who can use 3DANALYTICS?

3DANALYTICS provides a single up-to-date source of information for trustees, sponsors and advisers. This cuts down cost and ensures all parties are working from the same information. Because it's online you can do this whenever and wherever you want; on a Sunday morning at home, in a trustee meeting or during discussions with your scheme sponsor.

Analytics that help you move forward

Whether you're monitoring funding level triggers, finalising your funding assumptions or planning where your scheme should go next, 3DANALYTICS has insight you need.

When a scheme has set de-risking triggers, it's vital its funding level is monitored regularly. Trustees can then respond as soon as opportunities arise to take risk off the table. An automated alert can be set up as a prompt to look in more detail as you approach a trigger.

Knowing you have the most up-to-date and accurate information means you can make decisions with confidence, more quickly and not miss opportunities.
