Pensions Roadmap 2018 - 2023: Introducing an auto-enrolment retirement savings system in Ireland

Matheson LLP, Irish Law Firm

Earlier this year, the Government launched “A Roadmap for Pensions Reform 2018 – 2023”, a five-year action plan for the reform of the Irish pension system. In this episode, Deirdre and Jane discuss the Roadmap, examining, in particular, the Government’s proposal to introduce auto-enrolment to increase private sector pensions coverage and help individuals save for their retirement. Deirdre and Jane also explore the Strawman Public Consultation Process that was published recently in relation to the Government’s auto-enrolment proposals and provide insights on how the system might work in Ireland.
