CONTEXT
Administrative/Biographical history:
CARL Communications Limited was founded in 1972 with the first 'Pensions World' magazine published in September of that year. Based at 60 Thames Street, Sunbury on Thames, the firm produced six titles alongside 'Pensions World'. Having formed through an initiative of The National Association of Pension Funds, 'Pensions World' absorbed NAPF’s newsletter, the 'Information Bulletin' and eventually the NAPF had a bulk subscription and distributed it to all their members. The company was sold to Tolley Publishing of Croydon in 1986. The publication remained the official Association journal while CARL Communications’s other work continued under a new partnership, Carl Associates.
