Last year, the Pensions Regulator called for the industry to improve diversity, equality and inclusion (DEI), but there is still limited best practice guidance for trustees to get started. However, recently the regulator released an action plan aimed at increasing DEI in the UK pensions industry, as well as a plan to publish guidance specifically for trustees. While this will make DEI implementation more seamless for schemes, many challenges remain. To better understand how DEI considerations feature in trustees’ policy setting and the obstacles they encounter, mallowstreet, in partnership with Cardano, surveyed 106 UK pension professionals in August and September. This report presents our findings.
