Stewardship is one of the few real levers asset owners have over the companies they invest in, but stewardship ambitions have been retreating in recent years. So what still works, and what should schemes and institutional investors be doing differently? In this episode, Amy Sutherland is joined by Sanjay Joshi and Catherine Howarth OBE, chief executive of ShareAction, to explore why stewardship still matters and where it may be falling short. They discuss the case for votes against directors over shareholder resolutions, including a notable example from this year's NatWest Annual General Meeting (AGM). They also examine why bondholder stewardship remains underused and why investors may need to engage with AI firms before they go public. The discussion also covers NEST's Member Assembly and what it could mean for member representation as schemes consolidate. Listeners will come away with practical actions to help trustees and asset owners strengthen stewardship and hold managers and consultants to account.

Pensions policy shapes outcomes across generations. In this episode of Hymans Robertson On…, our panel explore how we can build a system that works for everyone. They discuss the pressures facing both public and private pensions, from the rising cost of the state pension to the shift from defined benefit (DB) to defined contribution (DC), which has moved risk onto younger savers. The potential for collective defined contribution (CDC) schemes is also explored. The conversation looks at whether meaningful change is possible, including how automatic enrolment could evolve and how policy might better support financial resilience, while improving retirement adequacy. They close by challenging whether the current system works for everyone, highlighting gaps for part-time workers and the self-employed, and the need for a more inclusive approach to pension design.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is moving fast in pensions. In this special edition of Hymans Robertson On…, Dan McMahon is joined by Jo Darbyshire from Local Pensions Partnership Administration (LPPA), Ted Mackereth from Just Group and Scott Finnie from Hymans Robertson to explore what that means in practice. From AI-powered meeting minutes and query routing to faster software development, the conversation stays grounded in real use cases. It also looks at why member-facing AI is still rare, and what schemes can do to help members access their own data safely. The panel digs into the big blocker too: data quality. “Garbage in, garbage out” still applies, but AI adds new risks even when your data is right. Trustees may want to treat data quality like cybersecurity on the risk register.   They close with practical thoughts on governance, people and responsible use, so you can test ideas without losing human judgement and creativity.
