Pension Trustee Governance Academy
Fiduciary duty, investment beliefs, and member interests.
The executive challenge
The problem this program solves
Fintech partnerships in pension trustee governance are signed faster than they are governed, and each one brings value and risk in the same signature. Boards tolerate transformation theatre for about two budget cycles — the third one funds a competitor instead. You will stress-test your own institution in the IPAT Data Lab™ and leave with a pension trustee governance strategy that survives both a supervisor and a competitor.

The IPAT Course Standard
The ten-day journey
Each day is a deliberate progression in managerial capability — from strategic context, to analytical frameworks, to applied practice, to executive judgement under pressure, to a capstone that produces something your organisation keeps. The ten-day format runs as two five-day residencies, extending the journey into institutional implementation.
IPAT Signature Case™
The Margin That Walked
The most profitable product at a development finance institution has quietly migrated to instant-payment rails the institution does not own; deposits follow the customer, not the branch. The board wants a response before the next pricing cycle — and the pension trustee governance data is contested in every committee.
Your decision: Build competing rails, partner with the platform, or reprice the legacy book to defend margin — each path changes the institution you become.
IPAT Data Lab™
The pension trustee governance unit economics at a mobile-money platform work in the business case and fail in the ledger.
Dataset: Synthetic product-level revenue, cost and capital data for a mobile-money platform.
Your task: Rebuild the unit economics, stress them against rate and funding shocks, and recommend what to scale or exit.
