If you are a pension fund trustee, you face
challenging times; you need to protect the interests of members,
whilst avoiding as far as possible being confrontational with the
sponsor, and at the same time avoiding personal liability. The
legal obligations have been markedly increased in recent years, and
the penalties for breach are (in theory at least) very
substantial.
The Pinsent Masons Pensions Law team can
- Help you gain cost-effective knowledge and
understanding
- Advise on investment issues and
relationships
- Keep you up to date on legal
developments
- Suggest ways in which to minimise exposure to
liability
- Provide advice on ways in which to negotiate
constructively with the employer
- Indicate methods of minimising PPF levies and
reduced regulatory interest
- Provide a guide through HMRC complexities,
including benefit, contribution and money-laundering
constraints
And of course you can use the publications and
events to keep your knowledge and understanding up to
date.
