Industry working groups
We host industry working groups to gather ideas and develop thinking, with help from our volunteer participants. This includes workshops and roundtables on important pensions issues and topics.
Pensions Data and Digital Industry Working Group
Purpose
The pensions sector is seeing increased opportunities to embrace digital, data and technology, particularly through better use and management of data and responsibly deploying new technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI).
This working group will help the pensions sector to identify these opportunities and address barriers to adoption.
The working group will set up subgroups to focus on specific areas such as AI and data.
