The links below provide information about pension valuations – note that since the commuted value that is provided by the plan administrator of a New Brunswick regulated pension plan on marriage breakdown appears to be widely accepted as the correct value to use for property settlement, pension valuations from independent actuaries are not required to value an employer defined benefit pension in New Brunswick. However, a valuation from an independent actuary may be required to value other pensions, such as foreign pensions, since the pension plan administrator of these plans will likely not provide the value of the pension (and almost certainly won’t provide the value in accordance with New Brunswick family law).
