22 Mar 2022
Sign up for the Webinar here
What does the session cover?
As the first single company CDC is set to go live this autumn for Royal Mail employees, we invited Angela Gough, Head of Corporate Pensions at the Royal Mail to talk to us about the lessons learnt on the long road to creating the UK’s first CDC pension and discuss what opportunities it creates for the whole pensions market in the future.
Joining Angela will be Madalena Cain, Head of DC Governance at AON, and Adrian Boulding, Director of Retirement Strategy at Dunstan Thomas as the panel answers questions such as:
- Why will CDC flower now when eight years ago Steve Webb’s “Defined Ambition” withered on the vine?
- What design variants are worthy of exploring when considering setting up a CDC?
- How do you manage CDC Transfers In and Out? What new factors must be considered?
- How do I build a Quality Assurance process around my CDC member communications?
- What opportunities does CDC offer to Master Trusts and could CDCs become a highly popular ‘best of both’ decumulation market option for many more of us with DC pensions today?
