    Railway and Transport Strategy Centre The Operator’s Story Appendix: London’s Story © World Bank / Imperial College London Property of the World Bank and the RTSC at Imperial College London Community of Metros CoMET The Operator’s Story: Notes from London Case Study Interviews February 2017 Purpose The purpose of this document is to provide a permanent record for the researchers of what was said by people interviewed for ‘The Operator’s Story’ in London. These notes are based upon 14 meetings between 6th-9th October 2015, plus one further meeting in January 2016. This document will ultimately form an appendix to the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’ piece Although the findings have been arranged and structured by Imperial College London, they remain a collation of thoughts and statements from interviewees, and continue to be the opinions of those interviewed, rather than of Imperial College London. Prefacing the notes is a summary of Imperial College’s key findings based on comments made, which will be drawn out further in the final report for ‘The Operator’s Story’. Method This content is a collation in note form of views expressed in the interviews that were conducted for this study. Comments are not attributed to specific individuals, as agreed with the interviewees and TfL. However, in some cases it is noted that a comment was made by an individual external not employed by TfL (‘external commentator’), where it is appropriate to draw a distinction between views expressed by TfL themselves and those expressed about their organisation.

  • First Briefing, May 2021 – Scheme Funding in the Legal Sector
    First Briefing, May 2021 – Scheme funding in the legal sector Many legal firms prepare their statutory accounts as at 30 April. This briefing looks at some of the issues these firms face when preparing this year’s FRS 102 pension disclosures. It includes analysis of the majority of legal firms with a Defined Benefit pension scheme (33 schemes across 30 firms). Contact us for a free benchmarking report to find out how the funding of your scheme compares to others in the sector. Change in assets since 30 April 2020 Financial conditions over the year have been mixed as markets looked to recover from the pandemic-induced volatility we saw in the first quarter of 2020. Equities have performed well, with positive returns over the year averaging from 25% to 30%. Bond yields have risen significantly so far in 2021, meaning that the values of government and corporate bond holdings are generally lower than they were at the start of the year. Overall, the impact on individual schemes will vary according to the investment strategy adopted. Schemes with higher allocations to equities will have seen their assets increase, whereas schemes with high bond allocations may have seen a reduction in assets over the year (although as we discuss in the next section, this may have been offset by a reduction in liabilities).1 Global equities: +30% UK equities: +25% Average DGF: +10% Index-linked gilts: 0% Corporate bonds -5% Fixed-interest gilts: -15% © First Actuarial LLP 2021 all rights reserved.
