Trustee Services

About the Trustee Forum The Trustee Forum was set up jointly by the Irish Business & Employers Confederation (IBEC), the Congress of Trade Unions (ICTU) and the Irish Association of Pension Funds (IAPF) - the representative body for pensions in Ireland, under the auspices of the IAPF with the support of The Pensions Board. It is an open forum for pension scheme trustees, however appointed, that targets their specific needs. The operation of the Forum and the needs it serves are driven by the trustees who participate and by a Steering Group, composed for the most part of scheme trustees.

Aims & Objectives

The aims and objectives of the Trustee Forum are to:
- give trustees a greater and more structured voice in how their interests are represented;
- facilitate the sharing of views and experiences;
- provide information and educational support

If you participate in the Trustee Forum, what will you get:

Information
Through emails and the IAPF website, you will be kept informed of current issues affecting trustees.

Magazine
You will receive a free copy of the Irish Pensions Magazine which is published three times a year.

Evening Meetings:
The Trustee Forum runs highly successful evening meetings about three to four times a year. The following list will give you an idea of the kind of topics covered:

- Developments in Trusteeship & Regulation
- Identifying & Managing Risk
- Investment Strategies & Options

A member trustee who has attended these seminars had this to say about them:

"I have been attending IAPF evening seminars over the last three years and I have found them an invaluable source of information on all issues in relation to Company Pension Schemes, whether they are `defined benefit' or `defined contribution'. The organisational work put in by the IAPF Trustee Forum , the quality of the speakers and their knowledge and delivery on any topic that they have spoken on has been excellent on each and every occasion. These events are tailor made for Pension Scheme Trustees and it would be very rewarding for more of these Trustees to attend these well organised events".
