Ethics is a core technical competency for treasurers identified by the ACT's Competency Framework.
The former requirement in the UK under the Pensions Act 1995 that for a Defined Benefit pension scheme the liabilities should not exceed the assets under a prescribed set of assumptions.


Ethical behaviour is a mind-set and underpins all business activity. Treasury professionals need to appreciate why ethics matter, to act ethically at all times and to lead by example.
MFR was superseded by the Statutory Funding Objective and Scheme Specific Funding.
