​Their pragmatic approach helps with quick and easy decision making. Another approach might have made things more difficult.

In any major corporate transaction, time is of the essence. PSGS's pragmatic commercial approach helped us manage the pensions aspects of our group re-structure to ensure a positive outcome for all parties.

Kathy, may l take this opportunity to thank you for your assistance. There were many times l thought l was losing my mind during my efforts with Aviva. You were a pillar of support for me and you saw my case through to the very end. I cannot thank you enough but thank you again. It is through people like you who strive for professional fairness as well as thoroughness, HCA has such a good reputation.

Whilst the policy intent to consolidate smaller DC schemes to bring about good value is to be welcomed, some of the proposals could actually increase complexity and/or cost – two factors that work against achieving good value.
