Run-on vs buy-out: choosing the Plan A for your DB scheme

Welcome to the first in our series of 'Excellence in Endgames' webinars!

Over the coming months, we’ll be providing trustees and corporate sponsors with the insights needed to navigate the complexities of DB pension scheme endgame planning. 

After decades of managing deficits amid persistent economic challenges, the average DB scheme no longer requires additional cash. Ever. Risk transfer is financially viable for most. Yet, the current policy and regulatory environment is encouraging using DB capital to create value for members, employers and the UK economy. Coupled with an energised risk transfer market and new provider solutions, DB scheme trustees and sponsors have lots of good options.

You can now watch on-demand, where Calum Cooper, Laura McLaren, Sachin Patel and guest speaker Andrew Hoddinott from The Pensions Regulator covered:

• The current landscape of DB pension schemes in the UK.

• The regulatory perspective on different endgames

• How to choose your Plan A, including the economics of run-on and case studies.

• The importance of the company and trustees pulling in the same direction (and how to make that happen!).

If you have any questions, please get in touch.
