We help everyone achieve a better income in retirement
About us
Our mission is to help everyone achieve a better income in retirement. We work to get more people and money into retirement savings, to get more value out of those savings and to build the confidence and understanding of savers. We represent: - Over 1,300 pension schemes with 20 million savers. These include defined benefit, defined contribution, master trusts and local government funds. - 1,000,000,000,000, (£1 trillion) in assets - Some 400 businesses which provide essential services and advice to UK pensions providers. WHAT WE DO We bring together the industry and other parties to raise standards, share best practice and support our members. We work collaboratively with members, government, parliament, regulators and other stakeholders to help build sustainable policies and regulation which deliver a better income in retirement. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN IN PRACTICE? We ensure our members’ views, and those of their savers are heard by decision makers; we are the voice of our members with government, Parliament and regulators and we comment publicly on their behalf on key retirement income issues for savers. Our industry-leading events, policy bodies and working groups facilitate direct exchange between members, government and regulators. We also help members run better pension schemes: we are an important source for training, support and guidance on key retirement savings issues for the benefit of both pensions professionals and those who provide support services to the sector. WHY WHAT WE DO IS IMPORTANT Our members pay out billions of pounds to millions of people every year. The impact of our members’ funds and the retirement incomes they provide underpin the financial security of individuals and beyond that, the future development of the nation’s economy.

If you want to throw your hat in the ring for a free spot or if there are members of your team who'd benefit from attending, then we’re looking for answers to these four questions (via [email protected]) by COB on Thursday 12th September 👇 - What is your role and company? - Have you attended a PLSA Conference in the last three years? - What would you like to get out of attending the PLSA Annual conference? - How could NextGen and the PLSA help enhance your experience at a large national conference?
