Having worked for one of the UK’s leading firms of independent trustees for over 22 years, in 2014 I set up Able Governance Ltd to offer professional, affordable and pragmatic, independent trusteeship of occupational pension schemes, and governance of contract-based pensions arrangements.I have helped companies and trustees tackle a range of challenging issues, for example:• Improving governance structures to meet the new standards• dealing with the impact of corporate restructuring• scheme benefit structural changes• closure and ultimate wind up of schemes• investment strategy reviews• negotiations with the Pensions Regulator and the PPF over compromise dealsNot all schemes face a crisis, but the input of a pragmatic, experienced, independent trustee on a scheme and its current trustee board can be transformative – resulting in better decision making, a reduction in risk to the other trustees, and - the ultimate acid test - better outcomes for members.If you would like to see how I can help with your pensions issues, please let me know by email nickboyes@able-governance.co.uk or through the Linked In ‘in mail’ system.
