*On 1 January 2024, Aptia UK Limited acquired Mercer’s UK pensions administration business, which means that the benefits you hold within the Fund are now taken care of by Aptia. Aptia is a specialist pension, health and benefits administrator. They are the largest private-sector pensions administrator in the UK, and they promise to provide high-quality specialist administration services that combines people, processes and technology in delivering a best-in-class service to members and policyholders – so you can rest assured that the services you are provided with will remain unchanged during this transition process. Mercer’s UK pensions administration business is now in the process of rebranding to Aptia, so you’ll start to see the Aptia name appearing on any paperwork you receive from them over the coming months. All contact details will remain the same while the transition takes place.
