Local authority pension fund: Governance Review

Following a TPR supervisory report that had identified scope for improvement, the Board of this large local authority pension fund commissioned Muse Advisory to assess the governance of the fund, identify areas of good or excellent practice and seek out areas where changes could be made to improve its effectiveness and efficiency.

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.

Testimonials

When we needed external facilitation for a strategy orientated governance review, Julia and her colleagues at Muse Advisory understood just what was required. As a result of their considerable sector knowledge and experience they were able to hit the ground running and work with the Trustees to achieve their objectives in an efficient and effective manner.
Chair of Trustees, Nationwide Pension Fund
Muse facilitated the setting of our strategic goals, both financial and operational, working with all our advisers and providers so that the objectives were fully integrated, not only in respect of IRM but also with regard to data, administration, member communication and governance. Their independence meant that the advisers were open and transparent in their thinking. The momentum they helped us achieve means that we are on course to provide good outcomes for our members. It also gives us a helpful framework to refresh regularly, to check that we remain on track.
Independent Trustee, Xerox Final Salary Pension Scheme
Muse have helped us via an independent trustee effectiveness review, a discussion workshop for the board on the findings and subsequently some planning and facilitation work for Trustee strategy sessions. The Muse team are highly capable with a strong client focus in the way they work, with us and our other advisers. Our trustee board is skilled and expects high quality and good value for money from advisers. Muse has consistently delivered this.
