Pensions

As pensions-related issues continue to take centre stage in boardroom discussions and on corporate transactions, it is more important than ever that corporate sponsors and trustees have access to high quality and commercial legal advice, which recognises a clients’ own business imperatives along with the challenges of the industries and markets in which they operate.

Our market leading pensions team works with corporate sponsors and trustees across all sectors as well as advising insurers, other professional advisers and public and regulatory bodies on the most complex, high profile and strategically important pensions matters.

Recent highlights include:

• advising Lloyds Bank in connection with the landmark High Court proceedings on GMP equalisation
• advising G4S plc in the high profile case of G4S plc v G4S Trustees Limited (which has resolved an area of significant uncertainty regarding who constitutes an “active member”).
