Introduction

"A framework for evolving DC Pensions in Ireland"

As DC clearly grows in Ireland, key themes are emerging around how employers face challenges with getting their membership to understand and value their pension benefits whilst also recognising the increasing responsibility for trustees.

The focus is now clearly on communication and understanding in relation to DC Pensions. This year’s conference aims to go some way to providing solutions for both trustees and employers with a focus on the key issues facing them. The Conference will focus on the continued evolvement of DC in Ireland and other markets through the use of expert debate, case studies and new research commissioned by the IAPF.


This Conference has been accredited 4 CPD hours by the IIPM and 3 CPD hours by the LIA.

The reference number for the Institute of Bankers is: 2012-0973
