Charity Benchmarking Report 2021

DB pension funding in the charitable sector

17 Jun 2021

The COVID-19 pandemic has placed charities under significant financial strain over the past year, with fundraising and retail income particularly badly hit. While charities are preserving cash, their DB pension schemes continue to require substantial funding.

Some of our key findings are:

How should charities respond?

  1. Plan triennial actuarial valuations in the aftermath of COVID-19
  2. Adapt funding plans for the new forthcoming DB funding regime
  3. Managing multi-employer scheme exposures
