DC Adviser Review: A second opinion counts

We were approached by a trustee board of a large blue-chip company whose DC investment consultant had been in role for several years. The trustee board had gone through several changes in service contacts at the consultant and had gradually lost confidence in the advice being put forward on the investment aspects of the DC section. It’s worth noting however that the trustee board felt that the scheme’s default fund was in good shape after it had gone through a series of evolutions.

It’s Good to Talk. Isn’t It?

A certain advertising strapline once said, ‘It’s Good to Talk’. And it is. But when it comes to pensions administration, it’s more of a case that we need to talk and especially when it comes to scams. We need to talk about how we talk to members and the language we use not only to improve the member experience generally, but also very specifically to limit the risks of members being scammed.

Testimonials

Muse helped us review the Trustee’s approach to managing risk, introducing and documenting a new risk management framework, which set out the Scheme’s risk governance and processes, dovetailing with operational risk management practices. Rosanne worked with me to facilitate workshops for the Trustee Board to agree its strategic objectives, risk appetite and key risks. Together we developed a reporting dashboard for the board, showing risk trends, incident reporting, project risk tracking and horizon scanning of emerging risks. She also worked closely with the Operational Risk Manager to embed good risk management practices within the in-house Trustee Executive team. In parallel, Rosanne worked with the Trustee’s Governance Committee to embed a new internal audit work partner and agree the internal audit workplan. Rosanne brought insights and expertise into risk management practices with other large pension schemes and brought risk alive for our scheme so that we understood its value. The trust she built enabled us to tackle complex issues, whilst developing simple and effective solutions for the Trustee Board.
