    Investment - Capital call financing - Episode 164

    Private markets investors are increasingly looking beyond traditional direct lending opportunities. One area gaining attention is capital call financing, a niche but growing segment of the fund finance market that offers access to investment-grade private credit risk. In this episode, Viran Patel from Hymans Robertson is joined by Penny Cochrane and Shelley Morrison from Aberdeen. Together, they explore how capital call financing works, why the market has grown so rapidly and the role it can play within institutional portfolios. They discuss the evolution of the market, the shift from bank-led lending to greater participation from non-bank investors and the factors driving demand. They also explore the risk and return profile of these facilities, including the importance of manager selection, operational expertise and the quality of underlying investors. You'll hear how capital call financing differs from other private credit strategies, where it may fit within an investment-grade portfolio and the key considerations for investors assessing the opportunity. If you have questions on anything covered throughout the episode, please get in touch.

    2026 Pensions Conference: A shared pensions legacy - Episode 162

    Pensions policy shapes outcomes across generations. In this episode of Hymans Robertson On…, our panel explore how we can build a system that works for everyone. They discuss the pressures facing both public and private pensions, from the rising cost of the state pension to the shift from defined benefit (DB) to defined contribution (DC), which has moved risk onto younger savers. The potential for collective defined contribution (CDC) schemes is also explored. The conversation looks at whether meaningful change is possible, including how automatic enrolment could evolve and how policy might better support financial resilience, while improving retirement adequacy. They close by challenging whether the current system works for everyone, highlighting gaps for part-time workers and the self-employed, and the need for a more inclusive approach to pension design.

    2026 Pensions Conference: Transforming member experience with AI - Episode 161

    Artificial intelligence (AI) is moving fast in pensions. In this special edition of Hymans Robertson On…, Dan McMahon is joined by Jo Darbyshire from Local Pensions Partnership Administration (LPPA), Ted Mackereth from Just Group and Scott Finnie from Hymans Robertson to explore what that means in practice. From AI-powered meeting minutes and query routing to faster software development, the conversation stays grounded in real use cases. It also looks at why member-facing AI is still rare, and what schemes can do to help members access their own data safely. The panel digs into the big blocker too: data quality. “Garbage in, garbage out” still applies, but AI adds new risks even when your data is right. Trustees may want to treat data quality like cybersecurity on the risk register.   They close with practical thoughts on governance, people and responsible use, so you can test ideas without losing human judgement and creativity.
