Consulting firm Mercer, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Marsh & McLennan Companies, has announced the launch of the Mercer Pension Risk Exchange, a solution that helps plan sponsors execute group annuity buyouts in less time and in a more competitive pricing environment.

The exchange is designed to increase liquidity and price transparency by enabling plan sponsors to continuously monitor pricing and contract terms available in the group annuity market.

The exchange also provides sponsors with greater exposure to a wider array of insurers that could potentially act as transactional counterparts for a buyout. Real-time online annuity pricing and trigger monitoring are also offered, combining a suite of buyout advisory and execution services.
