In this episode of Hub & Spoken, Jason Foster, CEO & Founder of Cynozure, speaks with Lisa Allen, Director of Data at The Pensions Regulator (TPR), about the role of data in protecting savers and shaping a more resilient pensions industry.
Lisa shares the story behind TPR's new data strategy and how it's helping to modernise an ecosystem that oversees more than £2 trillion in savings across 38 million members. Drawing on her experience at organisations including the Ordnance Survey and the Open Data Institute, she explains why strong data foundations, industry collaboration, and adaptive thinking are essential to success.
The conversation explores how the regulator is building a data marketplace, adopting open standards, and applying AI to enable risk-based regulation, while reducing unnecessary burdens on the industry. Lisa also discusses the value of working transparently, co-designing with stakeholders, and staying agile in the face of rapid change.
This episode is a must-listen for business leaders, regulators, and data professionals thinking about strategy, innovation, and sector-wide impact.
