Professional Pensions is teaming up with the Pension Protection Fund (PPF) to discuss its annual Purple Book.

In an exclusive webinar at 10am on 4 December PP editor Jonathan Stapleton will be joined by PPF chief actuary Shalin Bhagwan and PPF actuary James Emmott to discuss the latest edition.

The PPF's annual Purple Book provides a comprehensive picture of the defined benefit (DB) pensions landscape in the UK. This webinar, accompanying the launch of this year's edition, will provide insights on key trends and emerging themes around scheme funding, demographics, and evolving asset allocations. It'll also touch on how data updates and valuation timing continue to shape the broader picture.

Anyone interested in hearing more about this year's Purple Book is invited to register online and submit questions on the day.
