Market classification.

A frontier market is too small to be considered an emerging market but is more developed than a least developing country.

Markets (in order of economic development) are often classified as:

Developed;

Emerging;

Frontier;

Least Developing.

Different organisations produce slightly different lists of countries within each of these categories.

Examples of frontier markets in MSCI's classification include - in alphabetical order - Bahrain, Bangladesh, Croatia, Estonia and Iceland.

-Liability projections require assumptions for a number of variables, including mortality, early leavers, inflation and other factors.
-Actual experience of these variables will cause the liabilities at any point in the future to differ from the projections, which will in turn influence contribution rates and the like.
-For example, increasing longevity will lead to increased liabilities (and hence to increased contribution rates).
