Pensions & benefits

Charity pensions consulting

We help charities focus on what really matters by making pensions simple. We clearly explain complex issues to help manage their pensions costs and risks, and provide value-for-money pensions to their employees as an important part of the overall remuneration package.

Charities are different to corporate entities; not only are they not managed to generate a profit but their governance, legal and regulatory environment differs in significant ways. The charity sector is incredibly diverse and there is no one-size-fits-all approach to managing charity pension schemes.

Advice on DB and DC pensions arrangements

If you offer a DB or DC scheme for your staff, the range of options and alternatives available has improved dramatically in recent years. We have worked with many clients to attract improved terms for their DC members, with better functionality and improved member engagement, compared to many of the schemes that are still commonly used. The goodwill that can be generated by ensuring that your members are part of a modern DC scheme cannot be underestimated.

We are regular speakers at Charity Finance Group conferences, and explain complex issues in a straightforward and clear way that is tailored to your circumstances, enabling you to understand the issues and make well-informed decisions.
