Is my pension safe?


As a result of implementing the pension provisions in the Postal Services Act 2011, the RMSPS (rather than the RMPP) will provide benefits earned up to the end of 31 March 2012.

The RMPP was left fully funded at 1 April 2012. The Trustee will monitor the RMPP's funding position in accordance with legal requirements.

A further safeguard for your RMPP benefits is the Pension Protection Fund, which provides compensation (within certain limits) to members of pension plans that are unable to pay all benefits due to their employer becoming insolvent.
