Benchmarking Your Company’s Employee Benefits Plan

Enrollment in high-deductible health plans with a health savings account is on the rise and employers are increasingly dropping preferred provider organizations as an option in their health plans. Those are two of the key findings in the just-out 2019 Employee Benefits Benchmark Survey, which is designed to gauge how employers are responding to continually rising health care costs and is conducted by Zywave, a leading insurance software provider. The survey, based on the responses of more than 500 employers, found that 62 percent of the respondents still offer a PPO plan, although that is a 7 percent decrease from 2017. In the meantime, annual worker and employer contributions for individual and family coverage remained at pretty much the same level as 2017. The survey found that more than half of respondents contribute $5,000 or less for worker individual premiums annually and $10,000 or less for worker family premiums annually. On other fronts, to help manage prescription drug costs, more employers are promoting mail-order drug services with their employees and are increasingly requiring the use of generic drugs when available.

The Age of Sustainable Fixed-Income Investing Has Arrived

Article | July 20, 2022

Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) considerations have increasingly entered the mainstream of investment discussions, both through routine incorporation into traditional investment processes and through distinct sustainable or impact investing styles. Recent and current global conditions, such as extreme weather events, the inequitable effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, rising distrust of government institutions, and geopolitical challenges to a rules-based world order, have accelerated this trend, emphasizing the direct relevance of ESG and sustainability to understanding long-term market risks and opportunities. Until recently, equity investors were more concerned with ESG and sustainability than their fixed-income counterparts. That is, however, beginning to change, and at a rapid pace. ESG and sustainability have gained significant traction among bond investors, particularly since the implementation of COVID-19, and are now widely regarded as essential components of fixed income investing. For example, global sustainable debt issuance reached a new high of over US$1.6 trillion in 2021 and is expected to rise further in the coming years. Notably, we believe that ESG integration and sustainable fixed-income investing require a very deliberate, thoughtful approach — one that varies significantly from one fixed-income sector to the next. ESG and sustainability: At a high level, researchers believe that increased awareness of ESG and sustainability benefits global markets in two ways: 1. ESG integration allows market participants to think more holistically about the types of financially material risks and opportunities — such as physical, reputational, and (geo)political — that should ideally be reflected in asset valuations and taken into account during the routine portfolio construction and management process. 2. Furthermore, the conversation about sustainable investing is encouraging more market participants to look beyond narrow, issuer-specific investment thesis to consider how market participants' behaviors affect the broader systems and structures (e.g., climate stability, institutional strength) whose long-term viability is critical for the long-term health of economies and markets. We, like many others, believe that a stable global climate, clean air and water for all, adherence to the rule of law, strong institutions with broad public legitimacy, and broad-based access to economic opportunity are valuable public goods from which market participants would benefit collectively over time. As a result, a central goal of sustainable investing is to assist markets in evolving toward rewarding participants for exercising responsible stewardship of these public goods, which are critical to pursuing favorable long-term outcomes for the real people who are the ultimate beneficiaries of markets. This framing of sustainability highlights why fixed income is so important in moving global markets and economies in a more sustainable direction.

Covid-19 will make cyber and digital insurance policies more relevant than ever

Article | July 15, 2022

Kennedy's Elizabeth Bardsley discusses the risks brokers need to be aware of as more and more professionals work from home as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

For example, attitudes towards flexible working are expected to permanently change as more and more professionals work from home.
