Club Vita is a longevity data analytics company, which facilitates the pooling and statistical analysis of demographic data from defined benefit (DB) pension plans to reveal insights that would not be evident to the plans acting alone. Its three existing clubs have served the needs of plan sponsors and their advisors in the UK since 2008, Canada since 2015 and US since 2019. Club Vita’s innovative team has designed, built and refined postal code based socio-economic models for managing longevity risk. These enable plan sponsors not only to tailor their assumptions to reflect their people, but also to develop strategies to actively manage their longevity risk, so longevity is no longer just an actuarial assumption. Club Vita’s models are used globally by several firms of actuarial advisors and many insurance companies participating in the pension risk transfer market.
