DEFINED BENEFIT RETIREMENT SCHEME ASSETS – Cont’d 界定退休金計劃資產-續 Notes: b. The University of Hong Kong Staff Terminal Benefits Scheme (1988) (the “STBS”) The STBS was restructured on 30 September 1995 whereby it became “self-balancing”. Over time, liabilities would automatically equal assets, much akin to a defined contribution retirement scheme. The restructuring has limited the University’s liability to the sum of Aggregate Guaranteed Amounts (i.e. pre-October 1995 benefits) and Aggregate Minimum Amounts (i.e. the sum of each member’s Minimum Amount, which is an amount equal to final month’s salary x 0.77 x years of superannuable service from 1 October 1995). No additional cash injection to the STBS by the University is required unless the market value of the fund assets is lower than such liability. The STBS is funded by contributions from the University and members at fixed percentages of members’ basic salaries. An actuarial valuation was undertaken at 30 June 2023 by Towers Watson Hong Kong Limited, the appointed Actuary to the STBS. The valuation indicated that the assets of the STBS at the valuation date were sufficient to provide all members in service with the leaving service benefits to which they would have been entitled under the Rules of the STBS had employment been terminated at the valuation date. As at 30 June 2023, the net assets amounting to $136.3 million (2022: $167.4 million) were sufficient to cover the Aggregate Guaranteed Amounts and the Aggregate Minimum Amounts of $9.5 million (2022: $12.7 million) and $26.3 million (2022: $33.2 million) respectively. 23.
