How Paul is building a better working world

Pensions are at the forefront of retirement and intergenerational wealth challenges. I am proud to have supported clients in managing their pension offerings for employees. I have helped safeguard the legacy of their longstanding commitments. I have also created innovative structures that can reallocate excess assets beyond what is needed for sustaining the established legacy pensions of senior generations, to improve the retirement benefits for the younger demographic.

We have a challenging future ahead, with potential pension gaps looming for the next generations. I am dedicated to delivering better outcomes for pension members, which, in turn, benefits sponsors and the wider society.
