We brought together Heads of Pensions, Trustees, and specialists from legal, communications and beyond to discuss the evolving DC landscape focusing on three key topics: consolidation, default retirement and targeted support.

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 were able to understand the different styles and requirements of our two Trustee Boards and guide them both through a process, which resulted in a robust decision having carefully considered the right sort of provider and the requirements of the service. Their insights into the market and broad understanding of the part covenant advice plays in integrated risk management was invaluable in evaluating the market, and their facilitated process helped maximise effective use of pensions staff and trustee time.
Pensions Operations Manager, ScottishPower and Manweb Pension Schemes
Muse Advisory carried out a review of our governance. The team were good to work with and worked constructively with our trustees, the pensions team, company representatives and our advisers. We invited them back to facilitate our trustee strategy which was also well received. We value their expertise, independence and range of relevant skills.
Trustee Chair, Rolls-Royce UK Pension Fund
Muse helped us work with our administrator to deliver our transformation programme. They challenged them and asked questions we hadn’t considered. We wouldn’t have achieved the change we needed without the support and experience of the Muse team.
