The manager responsible for the pension fund of Ruthin plc has to present a report to the Board of Directors on the financial position of the fund.

The typical employee has 15 years to go to retirement and the company’s actuary has proposed that the company should anticipate having to fund pension payments over a retirement period of 12 years for the average employee.
