Abstract
This article reviews the orientation of the European regulation on pension fund governance in the international context of the OECD’s recommendations. It outlines the features judged to be essential for a sound private pension scheme’s governance. It then describes the orientation of the European regulations in this area and sets out some criticisms. The focus is on private sector ‘defined-contribution’ occupational pension plans managed by a pension fund, in light of the shared perception that the ‘governance’ issue is particularly sensitive for these types of schemes.
