Pension Insurance Corporation (“PIC”), a specialist insurer of defined benefit pension schemes, is announced as a partner of The UK’s Real Estate Investment & Infrastructure Forum 2024 (UKREiiF). The UKREiiF event is in partnership with Pagabo, and is set to take place between 21-23 May 2024, in Leeds.

PIC’s purpose is to pay the pensions of its current and future policyholders. Specialising in customised pension insurance buyouts and buy-ins for UK defined benefit pension schemes, PIC has a growing portfolio of £45 billion backing the pensions of about 350,000 people pension scheme members. PIC has to date invested more than £11 billion in UK infrastructure, including build-to-rent, social and affordable housing, regeneration leases and renewable energies.

Hayley Rees, Managing Director at PIC, said: “PIC has taken a centre stage spot on Wednesday 22nd May on the Bury Theatre stage for a session on ‘Securing Development Finance: What Are Investors Really Look For?’ PIC and a group of sector leaders will explore the alternative ways to fund development and beyond and how the future of investing will impact the types of schemes coming forward, as public finances get tighter and ESG implications grow.”

Keith Griffiths, Chief Executive Officer, and Founder of UKREiiF, said: “We’re excited to announce that PIC will be joining us for the third annual UKREiiF event. Their expertise in securing pension futures aligns seamlessly with our discussions on development finance and investor perspectives. Their insights will provide invaluable insights as they explore the evolving investment landscape, especially amidst changing financial dynamics and the growing emphasis on ESG principles.”

The forum will attract inward investment, generate economic growth, and drive a more sustainable and inclusive culture within the property and construction industries.
