The DWP has updated its guidance for trustees of relevant occupational pension schemes and their advisers regarding deferred connection to pensions dashboards. The guidance and forms have been updated to reflect changes made by the Pensions Dashboards (Amendment) Regulations 2023, including introducing a single connection deadline of October 31, 2026. The Regulations came into force on August 9, 2023.
The updated guidance explains that a scheme may apply to the DWP to defer its connection deadline for up to 12 months if, before August 9, 2023, they had in good faith embarked on a programme to transfer their scheme's data to a new administrator or had entered into a contract containing an obligation to re-tender their scheme administration in accordance with a reasonable timetable that conflicts with the connection deadline. Changes to the guidance include:
The DWP will contact those who applied to defer their previous staging deadline before August 9, 2023, in order to clarify the status of their application.

The private credit market and direct lending have grown and diversified immensely in the past decade, offering alternative sources and terms of debt compared to those historically provided by the syndicated leveraged loan and public issuance markets. 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 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.
