Paragraphs:
At the balance sheet date, the combined principal accounting assumptions were as follows:
For the smaller overseas schemes the discount rate used was 1.50% (2017/18: 1.80%) and future pension increases were 1.30% (2017/18: 1.45%).
At 30 March 2019 and 31 March 2018, the discount rate was derived based on a bond yield curve expanded to also include bonds rated AA by one credit agency (and which might for example be rated A or AAA by other agencies).
Question:
What is the average inflation RPI for premier schemes?
