• Challenges for the regulators arising from the roll out of auto-enrolment to smaller employers and how these might be addressed
• Progress made by the regulators in ensuring savers are enrolled in appropriate, well-governed pension schemes, which offer good value for money and low charges
• The impact of new pension policies on auto-enrolment, the work of the regulators and ongoing policy formulation
• The provision of guidance to savers and pensioners and the regulators’ role in this
