Client feedback

“Their pragmatic approach helps with quick and easy decision making. Another approach might have made things more difficult.”

Mark Assinder,

“We are extremely pleased with the appointment we made. The way Ian reacts to us and works with us is brilliant. We are very happy.”

Katherine Cross,

Tyser

“Kat & Jason are very good at making it happen – they just take care of it.”

Stephen Allaker ,

Bristol Myers-Squibb

“The work that has been done has been delivered beyond expectations.”

Head of Trustee Services

“Gillian and Curtis provide an excellent service to the trustees. They are approachable and possess a huge amount of knowledge. Everything appears to work smoothly which I am sure is due to the immense amount of work they do in the background to ensure all paperwork is available and up to date.”

Ian Woods,

KGPT trustees

“I would recommend them to anyone - I have dealt with a number of other independent trustee firms and would rate PSGS as the best. We are very happy with Mark and the service we get.”

Julia Morton,

New trustee training course dates added

Topic:

Legal & governance

Date published:

Wednesday, 11 January 2017

The Pensions Regulator has said it is "determined to drive up standards of governance and administration, and the competence of those managing private sector trust-based occupational pension schemes". It has also threatened tougher enforcement against trustees who fail to meet the required standards.

Targeted education of trustees is just one of the ways the Regulator believes improved standards can be achieved.

As well as taking trustees through the basics of the Regulator's trustee knowledge and understanding (TKU) scope guidance, this course includes:

real life examples from a pension trustee's point of view
a look at topical pension scheme issues

Our trustee training course will be interactive, with plenty of practical examples and opportunities for discussion and questions.

Our TKU course is aimed primarily at new trustees of defined benefit pension schemes (or those who would like a refresher). 2017 dates can be found on our Events & training page
