Autumn 2025 Investor Agenda

 Welcome to our Autumn 2025 Edition of Investor Agenda.

In this edition, we comment on the changes made to the UK Stewardship Code which take effect next year. Many schemes are signatories to the Stewardship Code and it often forms a key part of those schemes’ responsible investment approach and policies. The updates made to the Code mark a good point for those trustees to review their existing stewardship and reporting arrangements in light of the updated Code and also to engage with their investment advisers and managers.

As DC schemes continue to grow and their memberships mature, there is growing recognition that members struggle to make informed decisions about how they access their benefits in retirement. In our second article below we have looked at the latest proposals from the FCA and the Government to help solve this problem: targeted support and default decumulation.

As always, we would welcome your views on specific topics you would like us to cover in future editions of Investor Agenda.
