WHAT IS THE WORKSHOP FOR?
Following on from its success earlier this year, Getting to grips with your investment strategy - setting your mission is a one hour workshop focusing on the nature of the pension benefit promise made to members of defined benefit schemes. It highlights key areas that trustees and those running pension schemes should consider.
