Looking after the interests of your employees in today’s increasingly complex pensions environment is critical, particularly for businesses involved in major transactions or facing financial difficulty.

Increased longevity, fluctuating investment returns and recent legal controversies have made managing exposure to the risks of defined benefit pension schemes a growing challenge.

Whether you’re a sponsoring employer or trustee, getting the right advice to manage pension scheme funding and/or deficits is crucial in order to develop commercial solutions that work in the current pensions environment.
