How we protect your savings
Our pension is based on giving you peace of mind. Your pension savings will be looked after, no matter what the future holds.
Managed by BlackRock and HSBC
Pension savings are invested and managed by BlackRock or HSBC, two of the world's largest money managers, rather than ourselves.
Initially, payments and transfers into Penfold are deposited into a secure account held by a custodian bank.
Deposits are usually held in cash for one business day before being used to buy into the relevant BlackRock or HSBC investment plan.
How your money is protected
Penfold is also part of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS).
In the unlikely event that something were to happen to Penfold or our partners (BlackRock, HSBC and Lloyds bank), the value of your pension is protected up to a maximum of £85,000 per eligible person and claim.
In addition, pension accounts would be transferred to another provider for no charge.
We take data privacy seriously
At Penfold, service is our no.1 priority. This includes respecting your privacy and protecting your information.
To safeguard your data, we use the most up-to-date security technology and maintain strict internal practices for all of our processes.
We strictly comply with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) guidelines.
We'll never share your information with anyone else without asking you first.

Please note, when we talk about the security of your account we don’t mean that the value of it won’t change. The value of the investment funds your account invests in changes every day. The value goes up and down, for example, as stock markets move. So the value of your pension account may go up and down. This is investment risk, a normal part of investing. It is not an exceptional event.
