You choose the endgame, we'll build the bridge.

Amid all the government regulatory reform around surplus extraction, it’s important not to lose sight of DB trustees’ core fiduciary duty: to pay all members’ pensions as they fall due. 

As a crucial part of this, a buy-in or a buyout is usually seen as the gold standard objective for many trustees and companies.

Whether buyout is something your scheme is planning soon, or further down the road, we can help you prepare by building a bridge to your endgame, investing like an insurer, until you need one. 

For professional investors only. Capital at risk.
