As more defined benefit (DB) schemes choose to run on rather than move straight to buyout, attention is turning to how investment strategies can be refined to improve outcomes for members and sponsors. Our recent article, Making your assets work harder in run-on, explored how investment strategy can support this direction of travel. This article looks at the other key lever: liability hedging. By setting hedging in line with your run-on objective, time horizon and surplus policy, trustees and sponsors can reduce funding level volatility, preserve transaction affordability and create more scope for surplus, without taking unrewarded risk.
Aberdeen's pioneering transaction to assume sponsorship of the £1.2bn Stagecoach Group Pension Scheme (SGPS) marks a significant milestone in the evolution of UK defined benefit (DB) pensions. The deal shows that there are alternatives for well-funded schemes to access surplus, beyond the well-trodden buyout path. Under the Stagecoach transaction, Aberdeen became the sponsoring employer of the SGPS, enabling the scheme to run-on and deploy surplus assets to enhance member benefits.
2025 - what a year that was! It has been incredibly busy in the LGPS, particularly in England and Wales, with the triennial valuations; pooling and investment proposals, four consultations at the last count (Access and Fairness, Access and Protections, Fit for the Future proposals, and Fit for the Future draft Regulations); not to mention the Pension Schemes Bill, McCloud, connection to the Dashboard infrastructure - the list goes on! But is 2026 going to be any easier?
