Data Management

Without good quality data the industry cannot seek to improve accuracy and efficiency in any area of work carried out, be it a retirement settlement or a triennial actuarial valuation.

Data is, and always has been, the foundation that the industry is built on; if this is suspect then how can we expect it to hold up to the test of time?

We don't think that you should settle for anything less than perfect. Veratta can help with all aspects of record keeping, from system selection to data audit and rectification.

Embrace your data and give us a call. Veratta can guide you.

Information Security

Maintaining the security of pension scheme members' data is crucial and requires close support.

Information security is a key aspect of our business, and Veratta provide a range of services to help our clients safeguard their own assets and the benefits and personal information of pension scheme members.

Pension scheme trustees and their third party service providers understandably wish to mitigate information security risks as far as possible. Forward thinking professionals can see the bigger picture of information security and are acting now to effectively manage risk. It is essential that trustees and service providers continually review the security of the information they control and how their chosen suppliers handle pension scheme information.

We work with our clients to understand the potential vulnerabilities to their organisation, their schemes and the members. Our staff can offer support and direction to help organisations implement an information security management framework, and provide guidance against unauthorised access or disclosure.

Our experienced, trained staff can carry out information security gap analysis, conduct audits and risk assessments, assist with policy development and deliver staff training and awareness.
The European Commission published a proposal for a revised IORP (Institutions for Occupational Retirement Provision) Directive on 27 March 2014, which included requirements for IORPS to put in place effective risk management, internal audit and actuarial functions and produce and maintain a risk evaluation report. This highlights the growing importance of information security in the pensions industry and the requirement to ensure that security measures are in place to protect scheme assets and member's personal information.

Let Veratta guide you.
