The Pensions Trust 2008 Board election results

Issued: 12 May 2008

The Pensions Trust is pleased to announce the appointment of two new Directors to the Board. Catherine Howarth and Kevin McNerney join as Member Nominated Directors.

Commenting on the appointments, Chair of the Board, John Alleston, said “The challenges facing trustee directors are as great as they have ever been. Changes in legislation and the increasing complexity of investment strategies mean we need to make sure we are always ahead of the curve. These Directors have displayed their commitment to the cause of delivering high quality pension provision to the charitable and not-for-profit sectors by standing for election. I very much look forward to working with them and know that the Trust and its clients will benefit greatly from their experience and enthusiasm.”

The Trust Deed provides for elections of at least four people, providing that there are sufficient candidates. The Pensions Trust regrets that this year there were no new candidates for the Employer Nominated Director vacancies and therefore John Alleston and Richard Marshall agreed to be appointed for a final year to fill the casual vacancies.

John Alleston has been re-elected as Chair and Clive Unit as been re-elected as Deputy Chair.
