Pensions Briefing – General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) review for pension schemes

From May 25, 2018, the requirements of the GDPR will apply to corporate entities and individuals that control or process personal data, including trustees of pension schemes. The GDPR will impose obligations that are more onerous than those under current legislation, and failure to comply could result in significant fines or other sanctions. A wide range of parties is involved in providing benefits through a pension scheme and preparation for compliance with the GDPR will require advance planning and implementation. Pension scheme trustees should, therefore, consider what actions need to be taken now.
