Trustees do need professional help with member communications as suggested by the review into British Steel Pension Scheme case, this week's Pensions Buzz respondents said.

The cost of equalising guaranteed minimum pensions (GMPs) will be less than 1% of total scheme liabilities for over half of all schemes, XPS Pensions has found.

Panellists at a PP webinar discuss October's High Court judgment on GMP equalisation, how schemes have responded, what their strategies should be, and how the industry can approach it.

Buck has launched a solution to help pension schemes equalise guaranteed minimum pensions (GMPs) in a cost effective way with minimum hassle.

The equalisation of guaranteed minimum pensions (GMPs) is at least two years away from being completed, and could take longer than four years for some schemes, a poll has found.

This week's top stories were the DWP fixing the 'nonsensical' no-deal Brexit investment regulations, and the Resolution Foundation urging the government to cap the pension tax-free lump sum at £40,000.

An industry group has been set up to help pension schemes equalise guaranteed minimum pensions (GMPs) following last year's landmark ruling.

The sector is responding to changes including the GMP equalisation ruling, data protection and increasing demand for administration services. Holly Roach looks at what this year has in store.

Buck's David Piltz says the industry was shaped by several developments in 2018, many of which will continue to influence the sector this year.

The combined pension deficit of FTSE 350 companies grew by £9bn in December 2017 to £41bn one year later on an accounting basis, according to Mercer's funding tracker.
