18 November 2016
The Pensions and Lifetime Savings Association has responded to the FCA’s interim report on the asset management market.
Joanne Segars, Chief Executive, Pensions and Lifetime Savings Association, said:
“The Pensions and Lifetime Savings Association welcomes the FCA’s report highlighting concerns around cost levels, transparency and alignment of interests within the asset management market. These issues are of longstanding concern to our members.
“The report’s findings on institutional investors mirror those of our Defined Benefit Taskforce. We look forward to working with the FCA and government to find solutions which address the fragmented nature of the demand side, including exploring the potential benefits of greater pooling of pension scheme assets.”
