PENSIONS LAW REFORM AFTER MAXWELL: THE POSSIBLE CONTENT OF NEW PENSIONS REGULATIONS FOLLOWING THE MAXWELL CASE

Abstract

This paper describes the legal background to the Maxwell scandal in which about £500m of pension fund money was stolen, analyses some of the supposed flaws in the current arrangements for the regulation of pension schemes, and suggests possible revisions to the current law, anticipating the report of the Goode Committee on Pensions Law Reform, due in late 1993.
