This meeting is for business advisers who are managing clients’ automatic enrolment (AE) duties on their behalf. This update from The Pensions Regulator will cover the rule changes scheduled for this financial year, including the increase in legal minimums for pension contributions, as well as when the duties will start for new employers from October.
Delegates will have the opportunity to ask questions during the meeting (the organiser will explain how on the day).
