Shell UK, part of the Royal Dutch Shell oil group, will take a pension contribution holiday. The company said its £12.1bn scheme was heavily in surplus and close to fully funded on a “full buy-out” basis – the most conservative method of valuation. Pensions fund holidays were common in the 1980s and 1990s but in recent years have been discouraged by regulators worried about difficult to predict long-term risks.
