About People's Pension
The People's Pension is run by B&CE, a not-for-profit established in 1942 to provide benefits to the UK construction industry. The master trust has grown well beyond construction and is now one of the UK's largest workplace pensions, with 6 million members across all sectors.
0.5% AMC keeps it competitive with commercial alternatives, while the not-for-profit structure means surpluses flow back into member benefits rather than shareholder dividends. Strong default fund performance and robust claims handling have earned it consistent industry recognition.
