(30)In the event of the bankruptcy of a sponsoring undertaking, members face the risk of losing both their jobs and their acquired pension rights. This makes it necessary to ensure that there is a clear separation between the sponsoring undertaking and the IORP and that minimum prudential standards are laid down to protect members. Access of IORPs to pension protection schemes or similar mechanisms which protect the accrued individual entitlements of members and beneficiaries against the risk of default of the sponsoring undertaking should be taken into account when such standards are laid down.
