LCP updates Visualise technology platform to give schemes an integrated picture and more confidence and clarity as new regulations on the horizon

LCP has launched Visualise+, its latest iteration of its flagship pensions technology. The technology provides real time analysis of DB pensions, and has now been fully integrated to combine funding, investment, administration and covenant features in one place. It gives trustees and sponsors a clearer, faster, and more joined-up view of their pension scheme.

Some of the key changes are: 

• New funding functionality such as a new Journey planning page, allowing users to project assets and liabilities to understand the impacts of different strategies including those that generate and deploy surplus.
• Redesigned covenant functionality, aligned with the new DB Funding regime, gives users the ability to understand how covenant reliability and longevity periods could impact your journey planning, funding and investment strategy.
• On the Investment side, there is now more granular monitoring of investment portfolios, and an expanded array of performance metrics are available.
• We’ve brought in our innovative real-time pensions administration reporting within the platform giving trustees a window into their membership and how they are engaging with the scheme.

Jill Ampleford, Head of Trustee Consulting, LCP, commented:

“Now the Pensions Bill has been published, schemes  know the direction of regulatory travel and will now be considering what this means for their own strategic journey plan.  Having access to technology that provides a holistic view of all important areas is crucial and LCP Visualise+ delivers that.”

James Fermont, Investment Partner, LCP, added:

“Investment is such a crucial factor in getting good member outcomes and LCP Visualise+ gives schemes a clear handle on how investment strategy, investment managers and risk management approach will impact these outcomes. The technology will be a gamechanger for schemes.”
