Overview

Courts Trustees specialise in helping Insolvency Practitioners deal with Pension scheme issues on a day to day basis. No job or question is too small.

Our aim is to reduce the risk of IP's breaching pension regulations by giving the correct advice and assistance. The lack of guidance in relation Defined Contribution Schemes, can make this difficult. Our expertise and close relationship with the Pensions Regulator means that we are in the best position to help.

With over 40 years of Insolvency experience our team understand the needs of Insolvency Practitioners.

Simplicity……..someone to explain what needs to be done and quite simply how much it will cost to help and how long it will take.

Since 2018 every company in the UK is required to have a pension scheme in place. With only 2 exceptions:

* Self employed individuals and Sole Directors

When IP's are appointed, the insolvent company should have a scheme in place and it is up to the IP to carry out the appropriate investigation to establish what you need to do with such scheme

This is why the company was set up. To help you.
