Defined contribution (DC) pension schemes are making headline news with the government wanting them to fund young British companies and upgrade the country’s infrastructure.
They are to continue being a topic of retirement planning discussions given that they, or a form of them, are likely to be the future of the pensions industry.
With this in mind, portfolio institutional’s November edition takes a look at some of the challenges workplace pension providers are facing.
This edition also includes a review of when we brought trustees and their asset managers together to discuss the strategies DC schemes are employing to increase their exposure to illiquid assets.
We also look at the impact the Budget could have on investment portfolios and how the government is encouraging schemes to back British assets.
James Lawrence also features by explaining how, as head of investment proposition, he is building Smart Pension’s brand.
We hope you enjoy the issue.
