Revised Trustee Knowledge and Understanding (TKU) Code of Practice

After the end of a 12 week consultation period, The Pensions Regulator (tPR) will be issuing its revised TKU Code of Practice No.7 along with its scope guidance later this year. The main change is that tPR now recognises the unique requirements of small DC schemes (12 to 99 members) and has slimmed down the guidance for this particular group which will no doubt be welcomed by many trustees of these Schemes. For all other occupational schemes, the requirements for TKU remains the same for Trustees, with some additional emphasis being put on wind up, buy-ins and buy-outs, administration, employer covenant and Personal Accounts. Plenty for Trustees to be thinking about !
