Generative AI: A global guide to key IP considerations
Artificial intelligence (AI) raises many intellectual property (IP) issues.
United Kingdom | Publication | December 2021
The Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has published final rules for a "stronger nudge" towards Pension Wise guidance. These will come into force from June 1, 2022 and will mean that providers of contract-based DC schemes (personal and stakeholder pensions) must ensure that members have taken or opted out of Pension Wise guidance before they flexibly access or transfer their DC benefits.
The DWP is due to finalise its own “stronger nudge” rules for occupational pension schemes which are expected to come into force from April next year. Although it has worked closely with the FCA on this, confusingly for members there are small differences between the two stronger nudge regimes. In particular, a member of an occupational pension scheme who has already taken advice will not need to seek Pension Wise guidance before transferring whereas they will need to do this before accessing any personal pensions they may have.
Trustees and personal pension providers may find they receive enquiries from members with both types of pension as a result of these discrepancies.

On 21 May 2024, the European Council (or Council) adopted the so-called ‘Hydrogen and decarbonised gas market package’ (the Gas Package). The package contains a recast of the 715/2009 gas regulation (Gas Regulation) and a recast of the 2009/73 gas directive (Gas Directive) aimed at reforming the existing EU regulatory framework to support the deployment of renewable and low-carbon gases, in particular hydrogen. As such, it represents a major development in the EU gas market.
