EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation.)
These Regulations amend the Occupational Pension Schemes (Investment) Regulations 2006 ( S.I. No. 294 of 2006 ) by clarifying that the investment rules in Article 6(4) of the 2006 Regulations apply on an individual member basis as well as a scheme basis, except for a one member arrangement. Assets attributable to individual scheme members must be predominantly invested in regulated markets as well as the assets of the scheme as a whole.
This statutory instrument does not apply to one member arrangements.
