In Depth | Pension scheme funding – an analysis of completed valuations
30 min read
This In Depth analyses UK pension schemes' funding valuations completed up to July 2023. It shows that the average funding position and the proportion of schemes in surplus are at their highest levels since the start of the current funding regime. However, reaching full funding against the existing funding target will not be the end of the story for most schemes.

Aon UK DC Pension Tracker – Q3 2023
10 min read
The Aon UK DC Pension Tracker measures the expected retirement outcomes of four sample DC pension savers against the PLSA/Loughborough University Retirement Living Standards.

Over Q2, the Aon UK DC Tracker rose, suggesting that the expected future living standard in retirement provided by DC savings was higher than at the end of the previous quarter. As usual, this overall increase masks a more complex picture for the individual sample savers.
