Pension audit & advice

Our pensions audit approach is tailored for each client based on our understanding of the key pension risks attributable to the scheme. 

This provides the trustees and members of the scheme with independent assurance of compliance with accounting aspects of Occupational Pension Regulations and accounting standards (including Statement of Recommended Practice).

Clients benefit from

• Dedicated pension team. We have vast experience in the provision of pension audit services to both defined benefit and defined contribution clients
• Structured approach. We liaise with pension administrators, actuaries, investment managers and custodians, legal advisors, trustees and employers to ensure an independent, efficient and cost-effective pension audit or review process
• Robust and challenging approach to audit. We do not shy away from face-to-face discussion and challenge on audit issues – we have all the technical processes and procedures clients would expect of an international firm, but our partners don’t hide behind them
