CAPSA releases strategic plan
29-01-2003
Jeff Sanford
The Canadian Association of Pension and Supervisory Authorities (CAPSA) has just released its latest strategic plan, which lays out the priorities and goals of the organization for the next two years.
One of the most important issues CAPSA will attempt to deal with is the high costs pension funds face because of the difference in legislative and regulator requirements across Canada. According to the report, one of the goals of the group will be to, "simplify and harmonize the regulatory environment to reduce the regulatory burden for employers and sponsoring pension plans." As for practical goals, the group says that it will draft a model pension law for consideration by governments in Canada to harmonize pension law.
As well, the plan also mentions the significant transfer of risk and responsibility from employer to employee as defined contribution (DC) plans become more popular. According to the new document, CAPSA is committed to working to develop guidelines for investment disclosure in DC plans.
