At Moneyweb, we can ensure your company pension scheme is tailored to both employer and employee needs and requirements. With retirement living standards increasing every year, it is vital that employees are planning for their later years at the earliest opportunity.
Blah Ltd approached us to review their current workplace scheme which was run by a well-known insurance company. Our advice recommended the transfer of the scheme to a mutual pension provider, which reduced the ongoing management charges for the members, offered them all free access to mental health specialists and offered a wider choice of investment options.
The business was fully supported by the in-house implementation team who took care of all the ‘heavy lifting’ in terms of payroll integration.
