Miller, M. Catherine: - M. Catherine Miller, FSA, AC IA, the managing partner of Marris + Miller, brings transformational, democratic leadership to pension planning and strategy. Knowing that our pension systems constitute the world's largest reserve of capital, Catherine realizes that pensions are more than a group of individual retirement plans. Not only does strategic pension management provide pension planners and future retirees with a sense of security in their futures, but Catherine suggests that we need to recognize pensions' role in the overarching way our businesses, and our global economy, are run. Pensions need to provide hope for the future, and business leaders need to create capacity for change so that a balance between risk and outcomes serves all stakeholders. Actuarial science may be complex, but Marris + Miller provides strategic options that work. Through the firm's visionary work in this field, Catherine provides clarity on some of the most complex issues of the day: while pension plans in some of the world's largest companies are failing, we look at how to build transparency and accountability into every level of pension management, so that businesses and the people who run them and work for them can remain confident in their choices. Catherine believes that leadership is the pathway to a new way of looking at pensions, where strategic thinking and transformational visioning result in healthy companies, ready to take on a new generation of positive and sustainable business change.
