Local authority pension fund: Governance Review

Following a TPR supervisory report that had identified scope for improvement, the Board of this large local authority pension fund commissioned Muse Advisory to assess the governance of the fund, identify areas of good or excellent practice and seek out areas where changes could be made to improve its effectiveness and efficiency.

DC Adviser Review: A second opinion counts

We were approached by a trustee board of a large blue-chip company whose DC investment consultant had been in role for several years. The trustee board had gone through several changes in service contacts at the consultant and had gradually lost confidence in the advice being put forward on the investment aspects of the DC section. It’s worth noting however that the trustee board felt that the scheme’s default fund was in good shape after it had gone through a series of evolutions.

Testimonials

Muse helped us review the Trustee’s approach to managing risk, introducing and documenting a new risk management framework, which set out the Scheme’s risk governance and processes, dovetailing with operational risk management practices. Rosanne worked with me to facilitate workshops for the Trustee Board to agree its strategic objectives, risk appetite and key risks. Together we developed a reporting dashboard for the board, showing risk trends, incident reporting, project risk tracking and horizon scanning of emerging risks. She also worked closely with the Operational Risk Manager to embed good risk management practices within the in-house Trustee Executive team. In parallel, Rosanne worked with the Trustee’s Governance Committee to embed a new internal audit work partner and agree the internal audit workplan. Rosanne brought insights and expertise into risk management practices with other large pension schemes and brought risk alive for our scheme so that we understood its value. The trust she built enabled us to tackle complex issues, whilst developing simple and effective solutions for the Trustee Board.

Muse run very bespoke, organised and professional selection exercises. We enjoy working with Stacy and the team as their independence encourages sharing of information and a strong working relationship.
Head of DC Sales, Legal & General
Muse has provided us with a comprehensive framework to help assess the effectiveness of our existing system of governance and to challenge our existing approach to risk management. With Muse’s guidance, we are expecting to see a number of improvements to our risk management framework which will put us in a strong position for when TPR’s Single Code comes into force. Muse has helped us to identify and resolve gaps in our governance structure underpinning our risk management framework. In particular, by aligning our risk management framework with our strategy, the Trustee Board is supported in achieving its objectives.
