Virtually all new UK pension scheme members now enter DC schemes, and auto-enrolment will increase the number of new members.  However, investment risk under DC falls on individuals, of whom a large proportion are not interested in or capable of assessing or managing such risk.  A possible solution is for these members to invest in investment products with maturity guarantees.

The Retirement Products Working Party has produced an initial discussion paper setting out their thoughts on whether individuals need or want guarantees and exploring various methods for providing such guarantees.  This event will see Scott Eason and Gillian Foroughi of the Working Party present this paper briefly and invite comment and thoughts from the audience ahead of finalising their report later in 2012.

Please book your place at this event. The paper can be downloaded using the link below.
