DC Working Group (DCWG)

About

The purpose of the DCWG is:

  • To develop content to support administrators, employers and trustees in effectively providing high quality delivery, oversight and governance of DC administration
  • To identify specific legislative, regulatory or process changes required to support the delivery of DC schemes
  • To consider the role of the administrator in supporting effective saver engagement and communication for VFM

With effect from 1 July 2024, the previously separate DC, Master Trust and VFM Working Groups merged to become the PASA DCWG. Bringing the groups together means content can be developed more fully, picking up common issues across DC as well as those focusing on specialist subject matter.
