SPS Investment Strategies for Pension Funds (DB & DC) 2022 | SPS Conferences Informing Pension Funds | 9 May 2022 | The Dilly Hotel, London, 21 Piccadilly, London W1 0BH, UK

Purpose:

This event, one of the broadest in the SPS UK calendar will enable pension funds, both DB and DC, to review a range of investment strategies and the asset mix designed to help achieve their investment objectives. We aim to take account of global and local regulatory and economic impacts in a post-pandemic world, as well as appropriate scheme considerations such as cashflow requirements, performance, governance, cost, risk management, communications, implementation and climate change/ESG considerations.
