Over the last few months the Regulator has issued new or updated guidance, reacting to the developing pandemic situation. Recent publications include:
- additional guidance setting out the degree of due diligence expected by trustees when faced with an employer request to suspend or reduce deficit repair contributions;
- an updated Corporate Plan, refocusing its priorities in a way intended to protect both pension savers and the PPF in a worsening economic situation; and
- a response to the Government’s Work and Pensions Committee’s report into the effect of the pandemic on pension schemes, noting the steps that it has taken to protect savers and the PPF, whilst recognising the reality of the situation in which some employers will find themselves.
