EirGrid PLC, Dublin, hired three firms to provide administration, actuarial and consulting services to its group retirement plans.
The Irish energy firm hired Barnett Waddingham and Willis Risk Services to provide pensions administration, actuarial and consultancy services to the trustees of EirGrid and System Operator Northern Ireland's retirement plans, according to TED.
EirGrid also hired Lane, Clark and Peacock to provide pension-related consultancy, advisory and actuarial services.
