The pace of change continues to increase in the pensions sector. The Irish Government has finally started to deliver on its tax simplification agenda, and intends to move forward with its plans for auto-enrolment within the life-time of the current Government. In parallel, master trusts are estimated to have accumulated over €6 billion in assets and are growing rapidly, and the burden of IORP II regulation is triggering wide-spread consolidation and wind up of smaller schemes.

European regulation in the area of ESG is also a growing issue which scheme trustees need to address.

In this edition, we examine some of these important recent developments. You can download it via the button on the right of this article.
