Other associated services
Our business focus is primarily on working with ongoing pension scheme as members of the trustee board. However we also provide the following additional services:
Adviser to the trustees
Where a scheme's trustees do not wish to appoint an independent trustee to their board we can act as advisers. In such cases we are appointed to sit on trustee committees in an advisory capacity.
Sole trusteeship
The majority of our appointments are as a professional independent trustee sitting alongside lay trustees appointed by management and elected by members. We do, however, act as sole corporate trustee when regulations and the circumstances of the client make it appropriate.
Statutory independent trustee
We also provide statutory independent trustees, a legal requirement where the sponsoring employer is insolvent. Our knowledge of active schemes means we are well placed to give practical advice to schemes of insolvent employers as a statutory trustee, overseeing their management or wind-up and making sure that members' interests are properly safeguarded.
