Course Overview

Pension issues are one of the major causes that disrupt corporate activity. Given the risks involved and the vulnerability of firms to related liabilities, recent legislations have reiterated the need for stringent risk management. If risks/liabilities are not managed well, pension trustees could often find themselves against various claims and allegations that could jeopardise their own assets.

Since trustees are subject to strict scrutiny and accountability and could most often be misconstrued to be liable and responsible, structuring the right insurance can reduce this burden on trustees. Pension trustee insurance is strong protection in such cases.

This Zoe training course will provide a comprehensive overview of pension trustee insurance for liabilities resulting from pension schemes. The information and knowledge provided through the training course will prepare you and/or your organisation to perform well and risk-free by helping you understand ways and means to get the correct and most fruitful insurance for functions and aspects of the scheme that pose the most risks. This, in turn, will enhance your skill as a professional within the industry, at par with other certified professionals.
