Unlocking DB Surpluses: Balancing Risks and Rewards

On Wednesday 27 May 2026, the Pensions Policy Institute (PPI) hosted the launch of its latest report, Unlocking DB Surpluses: Balancing Risks and Rewards.

Sponsored by Standard Life, Aptia, the ABI and Pensions UK, the research examines the opportunities and challenges associated with unlocking Defined Benefit (DB) pension scheme surpluses and their potential implications for members, sponsors and the wider pensions landscape.

As with all PPI events, the session provided a forum for evidence-based discussion, enabling policymakers, industry leaders and stakeholders to engage with the research findings, share perspectives and explore the policy considerations arising from this important and timely issue.
