Our DB solutions
Employers and trustees can select from three consolidation options for Defined Benefit (DB) pension schemes with TPT.
DB Connect is our integrated multi-trust solution. At its core is actuarial administration and fiduciary management. We believe it complements pension schemes where the existing Trustee Board remains in place. Some of the benefits that we see include time efficiencies, cost efficiencies and also greater accountability through a single service provider.
DB Complete is our Master Trust, offering all the above features plus trusteeship.
TPT has expanded its offerings to include standalone fiduciary management services. Our fiduciary management service, delivered by TPT Investment Management Limited (TPTIM), is available as part of our DB Connect and DB Complete services or as a standalone solution.

With both DB Connect and DB Complete, your investment strategy will be aligned with an appropriate and flexible long-term target.

We were investing responsibly long before it was a requirement. It's not only the right way to work, but also an essential part of recognising financial risks and opportunities. We implement environmental, social and governance policies to secure the best outcomes, and actively engage in industry initiatives to help make a difference.
We're future focused

The transition to TPT has been a very smooth process and we’re grateful to the Trustees and their advisers for their support with the transfer.
