answer text <p>On 11 May, the State Opening of Parliament took place and the Queen's Speech set out the Government's agenda for the next session. It was announced that the Dormant Assets Bill is set to be introduced in the Second Session of Parliament, and on 12 May the Bill had its first reading in the House of Lords.</p><p> </p><p>Once legislation has achieved Royal Assent, the speed at which it can be implemented and new funds will become available is dependent on regulator and industry readiness, as well as their voluntary participation in the Scheme. We anticipate that the estimated £880 million to be unlocked through the expansion of the Scheme will take several years to be released.</p><p> </p> more like this

answer text <p>The Dormant Assets Scheme is led by industry and backed by the government with the aim of reuniting people with their financial assets. Where this is not possible, this money supports important social and environmental initiatives across the UK.</p><p>As a voluntary Scheme, industry stakeholders have been at the forefront of efforts to bring assets from the insurance and pensions, investment and wealth management, and securities sectors into scope. This includes leading work to estimate the value of dormancy currently in each sector and using their experience and understanding of reunification processes to inform their estimates of how much could be reunited with their owners successfully. The government is grateful for their work on this and has no plans to review their estimates or methodology at this time.</p><p>The following table sets out estimated value of assets that are dormant in each of the new asset classes to be included in the expanded Dormant Assets Scheme, broken down by sector:</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Sector</p></td><td><p>Dormant assets</p></td><td><p>Could be reunited with owners through enhanced tracing efforts</p></td><td><p>Could be transferred to RFL</p></td><td><p>Could be released to social and environmental initiatives</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Insurance and pensions</p></td><td><p>£2.1bn</p></td><td><p>£1.17bn</p></td><td><p>£959m</p></td><td><p>£575m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Investment and wealth management</p></td><td><p>£1.4bn</p></td><td><p>£781m</p></td><td><p>£588m</p></td><td><p>£238m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Securities</p></td><td><p>£158m</p></td><td><p>£48m</p></td><td><p>£110m</p></td><td><p>£66m</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>TOTAL</p></td><td><p>£3.7bn</p></td><td><p>£2bn</p></td><td><p>£1.7bn</p></td><td><p>£880m</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p>The government is now set to expand the Scheme through primary legislation, which was introduced in the House of Lords on Wednesday 12 May 2021.</p><p> </p>

answer text <p>The Dormant Assets Bill, introduced to the House of Lords on 12th May, will enable the Dormant Assets Scheme to accept a wider range of dormant assets – expanding from bank and building society accounts to include certain assets in the insurance and pensions, investment and wealth management, and securities sectors.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>Scheme expansion has been led by industry, who have been instrumental in determining how this expansion would work in practice. The definitions of dormancy used for the expanded Scheme have been tailored to each asset class, based on existing practice and relevant regulations within each sector.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>The Bill also introduces a new power for the Secretary of State or HM Treasury to expand the Scheme through secondary legislation in the future. This will enable the Scheme to build experience with managing new and complex asset classes before broadening the pool further. The government anticipates close engagement with industry if, and when, new assets are introduced to the Scheme under this power.</p><p> </p>
