Defined contribution (DC) investments have to generate higher returns for savers due to the uncertainty caused by Brexit according to Hymans Robertson.

The cost of defined benefit (DB) schemes sponsored by FTSE 100 companies could double from £7bn to £14bn per annum by 2019, according to JLT Employee Benefits.

A pension dashboard prototype will be launched by March 2017. Jonathan Stapleton and Helen Morrissey find out what the project is all about.

The 0.75% charge cap is forcing DC schemes to be creative in their investment strategy to generate adequate returns for members. One possible approach is factor-based investing, writes Michael Klimes

There are no boundaries to smaller schemes taking environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors into consideration in their investment decisions says Mark Thompson.

The government has announced a pensions dashboard will be launched by March next year. But, as Jonathan Stapleton says, the prototype version will have significant limitations and will need to overcome a range of hurdles.

Pension funds remain the most preferred way to invest spare cash, according to research by HSBC Global Asset Management.

Redington has hired Jinesh Patel as vice president of its defined contribution (DC) and financial wellbeing consulting practice.

Michael Ferguson has been made a senior consultant on Aon Hewitt's public sector team as the consultancy sees growing demand for governance advice.

KPMG has beefed up its defined contribution (DC) practice with the appointment of eight full-time DC specialists in senior management positions.
