Independent professional trustee services for occupational pension schemes
Corporate Pensions
We are an established provider of independent professional trustee services to occupational pension schemes. We have a wealth of experience in the areas of trusteeship, pensions and law.
Trusteeship is our business. Our priority is to ensure that our occupational pension schemes are run to the highest level of governance and compliance. The experience and expertise we offer is of increasing importance in today’s environment of tighter regulation and governance.
Why use an Independent Trustee for your corporate pensions?
The role of a pension-scheme trustee in a well-run pension scheme is crucially important. Trustees are responsible for the administration and investment of the scheme. These duties are often outsourced, but ultimately the trustees are responsible for monitoring them.
An independent, professional trustee will bring their expertise in the areas of pensions and trusteeship to bear on the scheme. This helps to ensure efficient administration of the scheme and effective decision-making.
The roles of the trustee and employer can conflict, particularly in areas such as the level of contributions, investment decisions and employee complaints. An independent trustee relieves the employer of any potential conflicts of interest and adds to the employees' confidence in the scheme.
The process of appointing us as the independent trustee to an occupational pension scheme is simple and straightforward. Download our brochure or contact us for more information.
