Pensions Regulator publishes contract-based pension guide

The Pensions Regulator and the FSA have published an overview of the requirements relating to contract-based schemes and the regulators' own regimes.

The bodies aim the guide at advisers, providers and employers involved in operating workplace contract-based pensions. The regulators designed the guide to provide clarity on regulation for aspects of work place contract-based pensions, following requests for this in the Thornton review in June.

The guide includes links to other advice guides from the Pensions Regulator, the FSA and the Pensions Advisory Service. To comment on this story contact: Jennifer Bollen Reporter Tel: 0...
