Key issues for pension cost accounting – What employers need to know

What do changes in areas such as financial markets and life expectancy mean for your Defined Benefit scheme pension cost accounting?

Our 45-minute pension cost accounting webinar takes place on Wednesday 15 April 2026 at 10am. It’s aimed at employers with a 31 March year-end.

In the webinar, our pension cost accounting specialists will discuss:

  • Financial market developments over the past 12 months and what they mean for balance sheets
  • The latest life expectancy data and how this may change the value of pension scheme liabilities
  • Scope for flexibility when setting assumptions at year-end and – with multi-employer schemes such as LGPS or SHPS – why the default assumptions provided by your fund may not be appropriate
  • What auditors are focusing on, including the Verity Trustee v Woods case.

Confirmed speakers are Caroline Parker, Jen Hodgson and John Ingoe, and there will be time for Q&A.
