To help you keep up to date with ever-changing pensions legislation, this area gives you access to: This is the first in a series of short guides for employers and trustees involved with defined benefit pension schemes, designed to help them gain a better understanding of actuarial valuations. Over the past 18 months, we have refined our valuation methodology, which we believe provides a clear framework for funding. The principle underlying our approach is that we should help each scheme to take an informed view about the types of risk to which it will be exposed and the degree of prudence that it wishes to adopt.
This is the second of our guides to the valuation of defined benefit schemes. In this note, we take a closer look at funding valuations and, in particular, the effects of using a market value approach, rather than a more traditional method, when valuing assets and liabilities, and fixing a contribution rate.
This is the third of our guides to the valuation of defined benefit pension schemes.

The second concentrated on funding valuations and the effects of using a market value approach, rather than a more traditional method, when valuing assets and liabilities and fixing a contribution rate.
This is the fourth in our series of short guides for employers and trustees involved with defined benefit pension schemes, designed to help give a better understanding of the valuation process and the issues of investment policy with which it is inextricably linked.
This is the last in our series of five guides, explaining our approach to valuing defined benefit schemes.
