What is DB Master Trust?
DB Master Trust brings together defined benefit (DB) pension schemes from different, unrelated employers under one expertly managed umbrella.
Our integrated approach brings together fiduciary management, administration, covenant, actuarial, payroll, trusteeship and legal services to streamline operations, with the aim of creating time and cost efficiencies and reducing complexity.
Each employer’s scheme is ring fenced from other schemes within the Master Trust, safeguarding it from other scheme’s liabilities. Schemes are then able to benefit from the efficiencies and robust governance of a larger, consolidated arrangement.
By moving your scheme’s assets and responsibilities into DB Master Trust, you can hand over the day-to-day running to our team of specialists - freeing up resources to focus on other strategic areas.

Our teams have the experience and confidence to understand your scheme and work with you to make it perform better for everyone. You'll always have an input into the running of your scheme, and we'll keep our discussions as clear and simple as you need them to be. With both DB Master Trust and DB Multi-Trust, your investment strategy will be aligned with an appropriate and flexible long-term target.

We're future focused
We manage pension schemes based on knowledge and insight, so that they can achieve better outcomes now and in the future. For the things we can't always predict, like market turbulence or new legislation, we have a long track record of adapting and innovating. It's what makes us one of today's leading pension providers and helps us to futureproof your pension scheme.
