Please join our pension and benefits experts, Andrea Boctor and
Bruce Pollock, for an in-depth discussion on recent significant
court decisions and regulatory changes that will affect plan
sponsors in 2012.
We will focus on new issues plan sponsors may face as a result
of new case law and recent changes to pension legislation, as well
as some practical tips for dealing with the fallout.
As many Canadian pension and benefit plan sponsors have moved
from preparing their financial statement under Canadian GAAP to

similarities and important differences between the two standards.
This presentation will focus on certain legal, financial and HR
considerations that may assist plan sponsors in addressing the
increased costs and volatility under IFRS.
