Do providers offer value for money? Jonathan Stapleton passes judgment

Professional Pensions will put the actuarial, consultancy and administration sectors ‘on trial' at the Pensions and Benefits Show 2013.

The Findel Group Pension Fund has appointed Barnett Waddingham to provide actuarial, investment and administration services.

The People's Pension has unveiled its "starting" trustee board, composed entirely of independent trustees.

Many defined contribution schemes are failing to achieve the most basic governance requirements as the industry focuses on defined benefit issues, independent trustees argue.

The coalition has made positive changes on pensions but has so far failed to enact measures to reinvigorate workplace schemes, a PP panel of experts says.

Trustees should take the opportunity to de-risk schemes as markets look more buoyant, an independent trustee says.

Former Pensions Management Institute vice-president Brian Critchell has joined the board of PAN Governance.

A new model of trusteeship is needed with the role of lay trustees limited in future, delegates at the Pensions Show 2010 heard.

Smaller consultancy firms could win the "battle" for medium-sized schemes in the next five years if consolidation among the top firms continues, Steve Delo says.
