Cryptocurrency: Diversification opportunity, or risky business? Glenn Cameron, Senior Investment Consultant and Head of Digital Assets at Cartwright, spoke with Sandra Haurant as she considered the arguments for and against cryptocurrency investment and what opportunities were developing for this new asset class. Glenn states "what makes #Bitcoin stand out is its finite nature. In nation state currencies like the #pound and #dollar, more notes and coins can be minted as and when the powers behind them decide to. There will only ever be a fixed number of Bitcoins – once the maximum number (21 million) is reached, no more will be created. In that sense, Bitcoin is comparable with #gold – there is only so much of it in the world. Its scarcity is what makes it valuable." Read all about it here: https://lnkd.in/ghxc7e3g

The September Pensions #dashboard ‘hot topics’ update from The Pensions Regulator informed the industry on how dashboards duties will apply to a change of administrator. In a nutshell, dashboard duties will not cease during the transfer exercise: “Once connected, a scheme must stay connected, in line with the Pensions Dashboards Programme’s standards. There is no additional ‘black out’ period and trustees remain required to meet their dashboards duties while the administrator change takes place." This could prove problematic for many schemes and administrators alike. Here are some things that sprung to the mind of our own Julie Yates, Director of Administration, immediately when she read this: ❓Could this become a major consideration for #Trustees when deciding to transfer #administration to another provider and would it add to the ‘risk’ that is often incorrectly associated with moving provider? This could lead to market stagnation... ❓On the other side of that coin…should Trustees looking to move their administration now rather than after the Scheme’s connection date to minimise further impact and logistical issues? ❓Could this have an impact on the date transitions commence – after the ceding scheme has uploaded value data to the dashboard? ❓Trustees might now have to consider new questions should be asked in tender documents around this. What should they be? ❓Similarly, what questions should be asked by any potential new administrator regarding value data and dashboards when responding to any tenders? ❓What happens if there is a delay in providing value data – how pragmatic approach would the TPR take in terms of compliance and enforcement policy? ❓What will be the impact on implementation? Things like on boarding times, resource, and automotive calculations…. As with all things Dashboard, updates can sometimes feel they pose more questions than they answer. What do you all think?
