TPT Retirement Solutions runs a multi-employer master trust with strong focus on responsible investing and member outcomes. Particularly strong for mid-market schemes (250+ members).
Aviva is one of the UK's largest workplace pension providers, offering Group Personal Pension (GPP) schemes alongside group risk products. A strong choice for SMEs wanting a trusted brand and bundled benefits.
What's included
- DC master trust + DB administration. One provider for both defined-contribution master trust and ongoing defined-benefit scheme administration.
- Strong ESG investment options. Long-standing leadership in responsible investing, with multiple ESG-screened and impact funds.
- Professional trustee board. Independent trustee-led governance with experience across charities, public sector, and commercial schemes.
- Mid-market specialism. Scheme structures tuned for 250-50,000 member organisations rather than micro-business onboarding.
