Signed by: Nigel Aurelius, CPFA Assistant Chief Executive (Resources) Date 1 Pension Fund Annual Report 2019/2020 CHAIRS INTRODUCTION Welcome to this year’s Pension Fund Annual Report and Accounts. Whilst the subject of Pensions may not always be the hot topic of conversation around the dinner table, for those working in the area of pensions, it is ever changing, increasingly challenging and never ceases to provide surprise and uncertainty. This year has been no exception. The year has seen the prospect of further scheme changes via the application of the Governments overall cost cap control mechanism of the scheme. This was then, almost immediately, placed on hold by the ramifications of the McCloud age discrimination case affecting all public sector pension schemes before Brexit uncertainty and then the Covid-19 pandemic took centre stage. All these factors impact the Pension Fund and require us to think both longer term for our scheme members and the Fund employers whilst we must also be able to act more nimbly to support shorter term requirements. I am however delighted to have the opportunity to provide an introduction to this year’s Pension Fund Annual Report after such a year. We have, as ever, tried to place the service to our members at the forefront of what we do and in this context, I can only hope that this time next year, the world has returned to a more stable and safer place for the benefit of all of our scheme members, whether working or retired. Governance In 2019/20, the Fund’s Pensions Committee met regularly, with a particular focus on investment strategy, managing risks and collective pooling arrangements. Significant steps on our responsible investor journey have also taken place together with undertaking the latest Actuarial Valuation of the Fund which showed a healthy increase in funding level as at March 2019. The Fund continues to look to manage investment risk and it is pleasing that the diversified approach taken towards the Fund’s investments has provided some degree of protection against the extremely difficult market conditions experienced in the first 3 months of 2020 caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. Pooling The Wales Pension Partnership (WPP) is the all Wales collective investment pooling arrangement which implements the investment requirements of all 8 LGPS funds in Wales, once each has determined its own investment strategy. The aim is to achieve economies of scale in investment management fees together with improved investment returns. This year has seen further work and the Fund has placed its UK equities into the Pooling arrangements. Extensive work has also been taking place to develop a range of policies that support the wider governance arrangements of the Pool. The Torfaen Fund has to date already placed almost half of its assets within collaborative arrangements with further moves planned for next year in respect of Fixed Interest and other equity classes. Responsible Investing I mentioned last year that the Fund is undertaking more work than ever in the area of Responsible Investing and 2019/20 has seen further tangible progress towards our goal to reduce carbon emissions across the Fund by moving all our passive, index tracker funds (almost £600m) into a low carbon product designed to reduce emissions on that part of the Fund by 80%. Notwithstanding this step, and conscious of the demands of climate change, the Fund continues to look at ways it can further reduce its carbon footprint which remains an ongoing priority into the future. Chair of Pensions Committee Councillor Glyn Caron 2 Pension Fund Annual Report 2019/2020 CHIEF OFFICERS INTRODUCTION Administration This year has been a busy year with a variety of governance and reporting requirements on the agenda including consideration of the Pensions Regulator Report on Governance and Administration Risks in the LGPS, agreement of a Responsible Investment Policy Framework including a Climate Change Policy, appointment of Northern Trust as the new global custodian, developments with the implementation of the cost cap and the effect of the McCloud judgement, the implementation of quarterly reviews of the risk register, the 2019 Actuarial valuation and continuing work to reconcile Guaranteed Minimum Pensions. This is of course all in addition to the core work of the section which is focussed on administering the benefits of members including the payments to our pensioners. At the same time, the need for improved cost efficiencies and transparency has continued via increased performance reporting for the Pensions Regulator and Scheme Advisory Board. Membership numbers have again increased during the year by 1.5% to 61,120 as at 31st March 2020 with both active (+1.1%) and pensioner (+4.3%) membership increasing but offset in part by a reduction in deferred members (-0.7%). The net effect is that active contributors remain at about 40% of the total fund membership with the balance split fairly equally between pensioners and deferred benefits. Workloads have continued to increase in most areas with over 14,000 (+7.5% on 2018/19) core tasks being undertaken around retirements, deferred members, transfers and deaths in service. The ‘My Pension Online’ (MPO) service now has approaching 22,000 (35%) scheme members signed up with almost 50% of active members using the service. Active and Deferred members once again received their Annual Benefit Statements via the member portal and Pensioners are now also able to access their payslips and P60s via ‘MPO’. The Team has also continued to work closely with employers, to encourage the use of Employer Self Service. Investments In the last 12 months, the Fund has agreed a revised strategic asset allocation together with an updated Funding Strategy Statement from 1 April 2020. The year has however been extremely challenging with the positive progress of the first 9 months all washed away by falls of between 25%- 30% in Equity markets in early 2020 as the ramifications of the Covid-19 pandemic became evident and many economies effectively shut down. This period has been one of the most dramatic on record and the road to recovery will take time and will be uncertain. Over the 12 month period, the Fund had a negative investment return of -7.05% with a fall in the final quarter of almost 15%. This could have been higher but the Funds diversification to Alternatives and Fixed Interest acted as a cushion to some of the extreme equity falls. The Fund market value therefore reduced from £2,929 million to £2,728 million by the year end. Longer term performance as shown elsewhere within this report was also adversely affected by such large short term changes. The strategy for the Fund however remains long term and the spread of investments will rebuild lost ground over future reporting periods. I would like to thank all the staff of the Pension Fund for their commitment and hard work towards delivering a quality service, especially during the current challenging environment. Staff continue to place the scheme members first and this is clearly valued by our members, together with those charged with the governance of the Fund. And finally. This year sees the retirement of Graeme Russell as the Head of Pensions to the Fund. Graeme has been involved with the Fund for nearly thirty years from Gwent County Council days. He leaves the Fund in good health and well positioned to continue to take the advantages that pooling within the Wales Pension Partnership presents. On behalf of the Greater Gwent (Torfaen) Pension Fund I wish Graeme a long and happy retirement and thank him for his considerable contribution over such a long period.

It is the largest town and the administrative centre of Blaenau Gwent county borough. Originally a rather insignificant spot in rural Monmouthshire with only about 120 inhabitants but at the end of the 18th century, Ebbw Vale—and the whole valley—was transformed by the Industrial Revolution. The Ebbw Vale Iron Works, later to become the Ebbw Vale Steelworks, opened in 1778, followed by the opening of a number of coal mines around 1790. At its height (1930s — 40s) the steel works in Ebbw Vale was the largest in Europe, although attracting very little attention from German bombers during World War II. By the 1960s around 14,500 people were employed in the works in and around Ebbw Vale, but the end of the century witnessed a massive collapse to the industry. A strike in 1980 was followed by closures and redundancies which resulted in the dismantling of many of the old plants. In 2002 only 450 were employed in the old industries, and by July of that year the final works closed. > Overview | Economy | Workforce Skills | Summary > Overview of Ebbw Vale Ebbw Vale Today The largest regeneration project in Wales is currently underway on the former Steelworks However, significant recent investment in Blaenau Gwent includes: site – including the opening of a new Learning Zone, Leisure Centre, housing, industry and The • Over £100 million for the Learning Works Scheme at The Gwent Archives.

  • Setting the Challenge for the Cardiff Capital Region City Deal Introduction 1. What Kind
    A Better Deal for Future Generations - setting the challenge for the Cardiff Capital Region City Deal Future Generations Commissioner- Sophie Howe Introduction City Deals are a vital opportunity for our public service leaders to demonstrate how they are planning for the future - tackling the problems of today but with the longer-term impact at the forefront of their planning. Gone are the days when we can look at a single issue in isolation. People’s lives are not lived in silos. The ability to work is not just dependent on skills but other factors such as having a transport system that is affordable and easily accessible. It depends on good health and wellbeing, for which we need access to green spaces and clean air. As decisions about the Cardiff Capital Region City Deal are being made since the Well-being of Future Generations Act came into force they are an important milestone in the life of the Act. They offer an opportunity for us to see how local authorities, Welsh Government, and other partners are working to fulfil their obligations. That is, how they intend to maximise their contribution to the well-being goals using the five ways of working set out in the Act. As a 20-year programme, the City Deal also offers an unusual and valuable opportunity for the authorities involved to work on a longer time frame. Short-term funding cycles are often blamed by public bodies for an inability to make long-term plans with positive long-term impacts, so we expect that they will welcome the opportunity that the City Deal programme offers to do just this.
