This webinar will explore how multi‑employer CDC will work in practice; the outcomes they could offer employees; the benefits of offering such an approach for employers and scheme members; and the operational and governance implications of such schemes. In addition to this, the webinar will discuss investment opportunities for this type of scheme and look at the experience of CDC more broadly across Europe, asking what are the key learnings from abroad. It will also look at the potential for retirement CDC; how these schemes could interact with guided retirement duties; and key considerations for trustees.
