As part of your decision to move your pension scheme, you’ll want to give your employees the chance to transfer any pension savings they’ve built up in your existing scheme into their new plan with us.
Our Royal London led transfer process means we’ll do all the work, leaving you to focus on the things that matter to you and your business.
Our Royal London led transfer process is simple, easy to use and it’s part of our tried and tested scheme set up process. We’ll lead and manage the end-to-end process for you and provide content to help you engage your workforce and raise awareness about the transfer.
Our toolkit will help you share the transfer news with your employees and what they can expect. Understanding the transfer may help them engage more with their workplace pensions and find out if they’re on track for the retirement they want. The toolkit contains useful awareness material including email template, poster, post card and banners. You can choose and download any item from the toolkit to use and share.
We’ll send your employees a transfer pack explaining more about transferring their pension savings and the things they need to think about to help them decide if a transfer is right for them. Our dedicated transfer team will be on hand to answer any questions employees may have about the transfer, they won’t give advice, but they’ll issue clear communications to help them decide. We’ll also let the members know that the transfer window has closed.
Transferring might not be suitable for everyone, but if they do decide to transfer, they can tell us via our mobile app or return the form included in the transfer pack. We’ll do the rest.
We’ll request the transfers from the existing scheme provider, give you regular updates along the way, and confirm once it’s all complete. You’ll have peace of mind with our streamlined transfer process, letting you focus on the things that matter to you.
