News types: Codes and Standards Announcements
Published: 14 October 2025
The Financial Reporting Council (FRC) invites stakeholders to attend a roundtable to support the development of technical guidance for pension scheme actuaries carrying out confirmation of historic pension scheme amendments. This follows the anticipated legislation prompted by the Virgin Media Ltd v NTL Pension Trustees case.
To ensure the guidance is practical, proportionate, and consistent across the industry, the FRC is inviting professionals from all segments of the pensions and actuarial community to participate in an online roundtable discussion. This session will explore how practitioners plan to approach the confirmation of historic amendments and identify potential challenges in delivering this technical actuarial work.
The FRC is already engaging with the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries (IFoA) and the Association of Consulting Actuaries (ACA), and welcomes broader industry participation to inform the development of this important guidance.
The roundtable is scheduled to take place online on 13 November 2025, 11:00am-12:30pm. To express your interest in attending this roundtable, please email [email protected].
