Pensions Regulator launches consultation on its proposed new enforcement strategy
United Kingdom | Publication | September 2025
The Regulator has published a consultation paper on the clarity of its enforcement approach to ensure it is proportionate, transparent, and effective. It aims to deliver a regime that is more risk-based, with focus on breaches posing the highest risk to pension savers.
The proposed new enforcement strategy aims to enhance the Regulator’s ability to tackle emerging risks and non-compliance in the pensions sector through a more collaborative approach.
The consultation runs until November 11, 2025, and the Regulator intends to publish the final strategy and consultation response in early 2026.
The Regulator expects to revisit its entire range of enforcement policies and procedures, and it may consult on specific policies to ensure alignment with its new strategy.
In conjunction with the consultation, the Regulator has published a blog which sets out its targeted, outcomes-driven approach to using its powers. The blog discusses the key outcomes of the new framework and the strategic objectives underpinning the enforcement approach, as well as outlining the next steps.
