AI governance

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is driving considerable change across many industries, including pensions, and whilst there are significant potential benefits available, the risks are real as well. Jo Fellowes explores where AI is currently being used and developed in the pensions industry and considers the changes in Trustee governance required to oversee data, security and cyber risk as AI use continues to evolve.

The key risks for Trustee Boards may not be what you think

We all know that the world is changing – and changing more quickly than ever. Everywhere we look we see evidence of this – geopolitics, climate change, AI are just three areas where the status quo is not what it was a year or even a month ago. How can Trustee Boards address such significant change? In this case study by Amanda Cullen, we shine a light on what worked well when working with a Trustee Board on their strategic thinking.

Testimonials

With the support of Muse's professional team our recent FM selection project delivered as expected and so much more. Muse was able to translate our scheme's unique characteristics and ambitions in to specific and practical service requirements. This meant that we were able to select the best fit provider; a firm who then already understood us and was well matched to our scheme's requirements.
Chair of Trustees, Northrop Grumman UK Pension Scheme
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.
Head of Trustee Governance, DHL Pensions
Muse carried out an effectiveness review for both of our scheme trustee boards and ran a joint board workshop on the findings and helped our trustees agree actions. An external review and the workshop were ‘firsts’ for us, we wanted to get it right. We chose Muse because of their experience and independence. Their team were very skilled in helping our trustees take stock and reflect, challenging us to think about future effectiveness and bringing wider knowledge of trustee practice and corporate governance. Muse really delivered well on the work.
