Pension Schemes Bill

The Pensions Regulator (TPR) has welcomed the government’s latest update on the details of the pension schemes bill.

The pension schemes bill is set to boost income and protection for pension scheme members, says Guy Opperman, making 2020 a pivotal year for retirement savings.

Schemes must be aware of the proposed rules on reporting corporate events, or they could face a £1m fine, says Anne-Marie Winton.

Most of this week's 108 Pensions Buzz respondents agreed the pension schemes bill should be reintroduced in its exisiting form.

For the pensions industry, the 12 December general election means the long-awaited pensions bill is “lost”, but probably “not forgotten”, according to a blog published by law firm Gowling.

The quality and availability of data is the “weakest link” for the pensions dashboard, according to the Society of Pension Professionals (SPP).

The pension schemes bill will face yet another delay as the UK seems set to have its third general election in five years on 12 December.

A pensions commission would provide an opportunity to get past short-termist thinking in a political world dominated and saturated by Brexit, says Rory Murphy.

The pensions schemes bill will digitalise pensions and provide savers with greater confidence for retirement, Guy Opperman has said.

With the spectre of Brexit looming over parliament, Jonathan Stapleton has some scepticism that the pension schemes bill will be enacted any time soon.
