What is the Pensions Protection Fund and what does it cost?
This was introduced by the Government to provide some protection of benefits for members of defined benefit (final salary) schemes where an employer becomes insolvent. There is a levy applied to each scheme based on its potential risk. The worse the scheme’s or employer’s financial position, the higher their levy.
