Pension scheme valuation update for trustees

Download the seminar booklet

The free seminar offers pension scheme trustees the chance to be updated by our experts on recent developments affecting the valuation of their pensions.

This year, valuations will take place in an atmosphere of unprecedented pressure on scheme funding. This seminar will examine the consequences of the most recent developments, including:

  • The Pensions Regulator’s consultation on mortality funding triggers, which could increase liabilities by around 9% for an average scheme
  • The implications of the ASB’s proposals on the valuation of pensions in company accounts, and the knock-on effects for funding valuations
  • The impact of recent market volatility on pension schemes, and the measures that schemes can take to mitigate its effects
  • The increased availability of a range of buy-out options as pension schemes become increasingly expensive for employers
  • Possible European developments to increase pension funding requirements.
