An increasing number of employers are weighing the merits of introducing an occupation pension plan for their employees, as a means for attracting and retaining top talent and achieving workforce satisfaction.
In fact, in recent years the emergence of new streamlined and more flexible solutions for establishing company pension plans has prompted many businesses to transition from burdensome “in-house” provident/pension funds to “turnkey” plans offered by life insurers or multi-employer occupational pension funds (so called IORPs – Institutions for Occupational Retirement Provision).
