The McCloud Remedy

We are specialists in SHPS, LGPS, own DB Trust and DC arrangements and bring this knowledge to an organisation’s strategic decision making and implementation.

Our dedicated public service pensions team is ready to help you with McCloud, which affects over 5 million people across the UK. We are specialists in employee and member engagement, pensions tax, managing pensions change and pensions administration.

Whether you are a member of a public service pension scheme, represent an employer participating in a public service pension scheme or are part of running the schemes themselves, you will be affected by the significant changes being made to remove age discrimination.

We are ready to provide support across all aspects of McCloud, covered by the three main pillars:

Administration systems, data and resourcing
Governance technical advice, project support and stakeholder management
Engagement support to employees and members through group and individual sessions, supported by digital solutions

Case Study | Group seminars for employees

We were asked by an employer to help their employees understand what the McCloud Remedy means for their employees, to understand the impact on their benefits, what choices they have to make and what might be the right choice for them.

We provided face-to-face support that focussed on the issues which were important to their employees, with relevant case studies. Led by a senior pensions consultant, the presentation allowed space and time for discussion and questions.

We were asked by an employer to help them understand what McCloud Remedy means for them, their roles and responsibilities and the key next steps they should be taking to get ready.

We prepared a comprehensive and easy to digest report clearly setting out the main challenges from the perspectives of People, Finance and Governance, along with a clear action plan to ensure good outcomes.
