The ongoing shift in the UK funded occupational pension landscape from defined benefit to defined contribution schemes carries significant implications for financial markets and the broader UK macroeconomic environment. 

The key macroeconomic repercussion is an erosion of resources and willingness to invest domestically, from both private and public sources.

This webinar is relevant to actuaries with an interest in investments or pensions.
