Defined benefit plans across Canada have been performing well in recent years, with approximately 90% now fully funded on a solvency basis and many having surpluses. This welcome development means that now, more than ever, lawyers must understand the legal issues surrounding surpluses. Join us to unravel the role of surplus in the day-to-day administration of pension plans, in the context of restructuring and transactions, and on wind up. We’ll explore emerging trends and practical takeaways for navigating an evolving pensions landscape.
