London CIV has announced that the Buckinghamshire Pension Fund has joined the pool.
Since the fund took the decision to join the pool last year, London CIV has been working closely with it to support a smooth transition. That work has reflected a strong alignment in approach and a shared focus on delivering long-term outcomes.
The addition of Buckinghamshire further strengthens London CIV, building on the scale, collaboration and long-term commitment of the pool’s partner funds. It brings with it clear mutual benefits across the partnership, enhancing resilience, capability and shared expertise at an important moment for the LGPS.
Reflecting on its Fit for the Future journey more broadly, the pool added: “A year on from publishing our government-endorsed Fit for the Future Strategic Development Plan, London CIV and partner funds remain focused on delivery, collaboration and implementation readiness as LGPS reforms progress.
“Our achievements to date include the successful delivery of our first strategic advisory mandate through a pilot with Barking & Dagenham. This service is now available to all our partner funds should they need to utilise it for this triennial review period.
“We also launched our LGPS Pension Advisory and Support Service (PASS). This is a direct response to growing cost pressures, capacity constraints and rising governance demands across partner funds.
“PASS provides a suite of additional, optional services, including policy advice and formulation support, responsible investment assistance, enhanced reporting, and dedicated cashflow analysis, designed to relieve resource pressures at fund level and reduce reliance on multiple external advisers.”
