LCP pension insights for housing associations

What housing associations need to know about CDC and why they should take action now

This is the first of our series in conjunction with the NHF of regular topical updates on pensions issues for housing associations.

Mike Richardson, LCP's Head of Social Housing, will provide a summary of the key pensions issues housing associations are currently facing, including TPT's Benefit Review, the 2025 LGPS valuation and providing good pensions to staff.

LCP CDC expert Helen Draper will take a more detailed look at collective defined contribution schemes (CDC) and practical steps housing associations can take to ascertain if these schemes are right for them.

This will include discussing:

• What are CDC pension schemes and how do they work?
• What do recent announcements from the Pensions Minister mean for the development of CDC schemes?
• How can housing associations prepare for CDC?
