Choosing ITS
Trusteeship is a full time role and our corporate structure and culture reflect this, in both our staff development programme and our peer review and governance processes. Our depth and range of knowledge, communication skills and sound decisionmaking abilities are the foundations of what we bring to each of our trusteeships.
The trustee is central to the effective coordination and relationship management between the numerous stakeholders; company, scheme members, advisers and regulators. We are able to work without the conflicts that can sometimes hinder company appointed trustees.
Each trustee appointment at ITS is led by a full-time director with broad experience of pensions and related matters as well as traditional commercial skills, supported by a team with significant experience in the pensions industry and the skills to manage a pension scheme effectively.
Using our review process, we bring a risk-based approach to scheme governance. From this we assess and review key areas of risk for the scheme ranging from the processes of the administrator to the strength of the employer’s covenant.
