R-12.1, r. 1.2 - Regulation respecting certain provisions applicable to the partition and assignment of benefits accrued under the Pension Plan of Management Personnel

Full text
1. The actuarial value of benefits accrued under the Pension Plan of Management Personnel is determined according to the “distribution of benefits” method and corresponds to the sum of 40% of the actuarial value determined for a male and 60% of the actuarial value determined for a female.
The actuarial value of the benefits is also determined according to the following actuarial assumptions:
(1)  the mortality rates:
The mortality rates are those determined according to the CIA Standards.
(2)  the interest rates:
(a)  the interest rates for fully-indexed or non-indexed benefits are those determined according to the CIA Standards;
(b)  the interest rates for partially-indexed benefits are determined according to the following formula:
((1 + interest rate for a non-indexed benefit) / (1 + indexing rate for a partially-indexed benefit)) - 1
The result must be adjusted according to the CIA Standards.
(3)  the indexing rate:
(a)  the indexing rate for a benefit fully-indexed by the rate of increase in the Pension Index is calculated in the manner described in the CIA Standards;
(b)  the indexing rate for a benefit indexed by the excess of the rate of increase in the Pension Index (PI) over 3% or by half of the rate of increase in the Pension Index corresponds respectively to the excess of the indexing rate calculated in the manner provided in subparagraph a over 3% or by half the indexing rate calculated in the manner provided in that subparagraph.
In order to take into account inflation rate variations, the following additions are made to the results of the effective indexing formulas for actuarial value calculation purposes:
