Business case for pensions

In partnership with BlackRock
 

 
 
"While employers are no longer responsible for the retirement planning of their employees, it makes sense for them to educate their staff on the importance of saving into a pension scheme.

However, employers can't do this on their own. They need Government support to help empower employees to make informed choices on the options available."

Steve Rumbles, Head of UK DC Pensions at BlackRock
 
 
 
 
 
 
Pensions have rarely been out of the news for the last six
months, with reports of pension funds being hit by the economic crisis and high profile pension closures. In addition, we have the Government’s plans for automatically enrolling employees. It’s clear that pension schemes are facing unprecedented challenges.
