Members may be aware that UCU, through our Superannuation Working Group (SWG), has been engaged with Universities Superannuation Scheme (USS) and Universities and Colleges Employers Association (UCEA) for some time investigating Conditional Indexation (CI). This page carries important updates regarding that investigation.
