Описание: State pensions are the largest item in the UK social security budget, costing ?96.7 billion in 2017/18. In the same year, 45.6 million people were members of UK occupational pension schemes (out of a total population of 66.4 million) and the total amount saved into workplace schemes in 2018 was ?90.4 billion. A consequence of the pensions sector’s large size has been that pensions law and social security law have become increasingly specialised areas of practice. Yet despite their social and economic importance and the fascinating legal issues they generate, pensions have not been the subject of sustained academic attention. This book starts to fill this gap by initiating a dialogue between practitioners and scholars working on pensions law and policy, groups who have much to learn from one another.
This monograph explores the historical position of pensions law in the UK and the recent influences which have led to the introduction of Auto-Enrolment and subsequent reforms. Alternative models, such as the US and Australia are also considered as well as the function of law in bringing about political changes.
The question of saving for retirement is of national and international importance and many governments are wrestling with the issue of how to deal with the pension funding crisis. Consequently political policy has, in many cases, combined with behavioural science to inform new laws which have acted to shift the burden from the state into the private sector. Around the world responsibility is being moved onto individuals and employers as the state retreats from provision of state support in retirement; this book offers a sophisticated analysis of the role of legal intervention to facilitate this shift.
The book explores the work of behavioural economics, its global influence on understanding financial decision making and its application to legislation which seeks to influence consumer outcomes. Drawing on qualitative empirical research to explore the experience of implementation of Auto-Enrolment, this timely work considers the interaction with the work of behavioural science to highlight the social costs of the new regulatory regime.

Описание: Connected and Associated: Insolvency and Pensions Law discusses, in detail, the meaning and scope of the ‘connected’, ‘associated’ and ‘control’ tests used in the Insolvency Act 1986. These are in sections 249 and 435, and are incorporated by reference in pensions legislation. It also looks at the linked connected person test in The Administration (Restrictions on Disposal etc. to Connected Persons) Regulations 2021.
Connected and Associated: Insolvency and Pensions Law will help you to:
- Decide whether a person is connected or associated with another under the insolvency test for the purposes of preferences, transactions at an undervalue, or voting in creditor meetings
- Decide whether there is a risk of falling within the potential target net for a contribution notice or financial support direction under the moral hazard powers of the Pensions Regulator in the Pensions Act 2004
- Check whether an investment by a pension scheme is within the limits on employer-related investment under the Pensions Act 1995
- Work out when a disposal by an administrator will be to a connected person
- Work out who satisfies the independence test for an evaluator
- Deal with connected person voting majorities in a creditor vote in a CVA and a Part A1 Moratorium
- Understand the implications of the Administration (Restriction on Disposal etc. to Connected Persons) Regulations 2021
Written by David Pollard, one of the leading experts in this field, this is the only in-depth review of the complex test for connected or associated persons and, as such, is an essential title for insolvency and pension lawyers, litigators, pension trustees, employers, investors, lenders and their advisers.
