On November 20, 2023, the Work and Pensions Committee published the Government's response to its report on DB pension schemes with liability driven investments (LDI) following its June 2023 report.
The response confirms that, despite concerns expressed by the Committee the new DB funding and investment regulations will be laid before Parliament in "due course".
The response acknowledges the impact of the events of September 2022 on DB schemes and confirms that the Regulator will be monitoring adherence to its guidance in respect of leveraged LDI and capital buffers. However, the Government stated that there is no direct means for the Regulator to restrict LDI use, as scheme investment strategies are ultimately a decision for trustees and sponsors.

Consequently, they are fast becoming pivotal components in the capital ecosystem, so much so that the Bank of England consider that the private credit market is currently responsible for approximately $1.8 trillion of debt issuance, which is four times its size in 2015. This growth has been particularly pronounced in Europe and the US but there has also been significant activity in Asia.

The EU’s Artificial Intelligence Regulation, commonly referred to as the AI Act, is expected to come into force during the summer of 2024 (the AI Act). The AI Act will be the first comprehensive legal framework for the use and development of artificial intelligence (AI), and is intended to ensure that AI systems developed and used in the EU are safe, transparent, traceable, non-discriminatory and environmentally friendly.
