Standard Life's DC Own Trust solution

Standard Life has many years of experience in designing and providing trust-based solutions, including to Own Trust schemes, for UK employers, trustees and their advisers.

Our DC Own Trust solution uses our Trust Based Pension (TBP) product, and our agreements with trustee clients are established via Contracts of Insurance. This solution can either be

  • implemented for a newly-registered trust based scheme, or
  • used in place of an existing scheme (without the trouble of having to set up a new trustee board).

Our TBP product is flexible and designed to support a wide range of features and functionality for existing schemes.

And, most importantly, we can help you get it all set up, every step of the way.
