PMI welcomes DWP roadmap update as "vital opportunity to provide long-term certainty"
The PMI welcomes the government’s updated workplace pensions roadmap, which brings together the programme of pensions reforms, particularly those enabled by the Pensions Schemes Act 2026, into a clear and sequenced plan for delivery.
The roadmap’s focus on governance, value for money and member outcomes reflects the PMI’s core purpose of raising professional standards through education.
We look forward to supporting the next phase of implementation through collaboration, professional development, and evidence‑based policy input. A well‑governed, long‑term approach will help ensure the UK’s pensions framework continues to serve savers and the wider economy effectively.
Helen Forrest Hall, the PMI’s Chief Strategy Officer, said:
“The Pensions Roadmap is a vital opportunity to provide the long-term certainty and strategic direction needed to build a stronger, more resilient pensions system.
"At a time when public and private sector capacity is stretched, finite resources must be focused on the reforms that will have the greatest impact for savers. The Government’s commitment to a clear, phased plan must now be matched by decisive action across the pensions community. We cannot afford to stand still.
"Working together, the industry can build a pensions system that delivers lasting value for savers and the UK economy by investing in professional education, strengthening governance and driving transparency."
