Pensions
Covering the full spectrum of pension issues.
Pensions has evolved into a highly regulated and technical area, with frequent legislative and regulatory changes often creating demand for new areas of advice.
We advise companies and trustees on a range of legal matters related to occupational pensions plans, as well as multinational companies on pensions-related issues in cross-border transactions.
Our team also covers pensions product development and dispute resolution projects, and advises employees and trustee boards on pension scheme funding matters, the valuation process, scheme mergers, benefit changes, the effect of M&A and other corporate and finance transactions, insolvency, restructuring and outsourcing.
If needed, we can help reduce liabilities via pooled funds, derivatives, insurance buy-ins and buy-outs, stock lending, and private equity and property investments.
