The pensions law implications of 'Brexit'
24 June 2016
On 23 June 2016, the UK voted to leave the European Union. In terms of what impact this will have on UK pensions, the extent to which current pensions law will be affected will be dictated by the precise terms of the 'Brexit", which are yet to be determined.
This briefing outlines some of the key issues and questions which will be relevant in the pensions context following the UK's vote to leave. However, it is important to be aware that there is no immediate change to pensions law as a consequence of the vote. The UK remains a member of the EU and will have at least two years to negotiate the terms of its exit.
