CDC for staff in social housing – First Actuarial’s Derek Benstead

I think any work done by First Actuarial under Derek Benstead is readable. Here are thoughts published this week

It comes with a note from Derek himself

Since First Actuarial helped establish Collective Defined Contribution (CDC) pensions in the UK, we’ve always felt that they would be a particularly good fit for the social housing sector.

With this in mind, we set up a CDC strategy group, comprising representatives from 19 housing associations and related organisations. We held five meetings on a range of CDC-related topics to explore the suitability of this new type of pension for the sector.

We’ve now published a report of our discussions and findings, and it’s ready for you to read.

The report will give you:

  • An outline of the basic principles behind CDC pensions
  • A summary of the five meetings held by the CDC strategy group
  • Findings of a CDC survey which we ran after the five meetings.

I hope you find it useful and interesting. Please message me or Katie Trevelyan if you would like information about joining the group.   

With best wishes,

Derek Benstead      derek.benstead@firstactuarial.co.uk

Head of CDC
