It is important that trustees are supported in understanding heir responsibilities in taking investment decisions, and The Pensions Regulator is supporting trustees in doing this. Guidance provided by the Law Commission has been shared with trustees by The Pensions Regulator, and The Pension Regulator바카라 사이트檚 own guidance has been updated to reflect the Law Commission바카라 사이트檚 findings.
