Managed with a focus on long-term sustainability, the Vauxhall Pension Scheme employs strategic investment practices and diligent risk management to protect the fund’s assets and secure its ability to meet future pension obligations. The scheme is vital for supporting the livelihood of retired employees, demonstrating Vauxhall’s dedication to its employees by providing comprehensive benefits that help sustain their quality of life in retirement.
Are you someone who transferred funds out of a Vauxhall pension?
The large car manufacturing company Vauxhall is one of many businesses that provide their workers with a final salary pension. This is based on either average of or final salary, along with length of service. The pension guarantees the individual a secure income during retirement. Because of that, these pensions are seen as being very valuable and are something that are not often provided to workers in the private sector.
Although these pensions are highly dependable, some people have been persuaded to transfer funds out of them for the wrong reasons or after being given unsound / unrealistic advice on how much money they could make from doing so. It is very rarely the case that making transfers out of a pension like this are a good idea and they end up putting the individual at an increased level of risk, often that they were not expecting.
Some of the guidance and advice that these individuals received from financial advisors might well have been negligent and left them with fewer funds to survive on than what they were expecting. When it comes to transferring a pension like this, it is a very serious decision and so the advice received should be in the best interest of the individual. However, this has not always been the case, with some financial advisors mis selling these types of transfers. Luckily though, we are highly experienced in helping people who have been given negligent advice and have been mis sol pensions, and can quickly establish if they are entitled to make a compensation claim.
