Department for Work & Pensions

The Pensions Regulator (TPR) has published its draft code of practice for public sector schemes for consultation.

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has launched a consultation into the statutory definition of money purchase benefits.

Large employers have criticised the government, pensions industry and payroll providers for the level of support available in setting up auto-enrolment (AE).

The Department for Work and Pensions is considering a ban on active member discounts and the extension of consultancy charge and commission bans to all DC schemes.

The government has set out a range of proposals to limit charges in schemes used for auto-enrolment (AE) to either 0.75% or 1%.

Some 50% of people surveyed by asset manager BlackRock say they are unwilling to take any risks with their money, leading to high allocations in cash.

The government has tabled amendments to the Pensions Bill 2013 that will allow it to impose a charge cap on schemes.

Pensions minister Steve Webb has rebuffed calls from industry members to merge The Pensions Regulator (TPR) and Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) saying it is not the right time.

The Office of Fair Trading's (OFT) report into the workplace defined contribution (DC) savings market highlighted some stark concerns over charges.

The Pensions Regulator (TPR) will host an urgent industry summit to address pensions liberation fraud.
