Governance services
Pension scheme governance covers a broad spectrum of controls that together build into a framework that helps pension trustees create and then realise their long-term strategy.
We find that it can have a positive impact on the risk management and planning processes undertaken by pension scheme trustees. So, for governance to be successful, it needs to be ‘active’ – not a tick in the box once a year. Good governance is integrated with the business of the trustees, driving the agenda and helping focus attention on what needs to get done.
 

 Overview

 
We work with our clients to develop:
  • risk controls and processes to ensure the interests of scheme members are properly looked after
  • a method of monitoring and reviewing their pension scheme’s assets
  • a clear understanding of their sponsoring employer’s covenant
  • a considered approach to trustee training, with the aim of developing understanding so that trustees can constructively challenge the advice they receive
