Report service

 


The Penfam report service: a report setting out the value of the pension rights and a list of suggested options for dealing with those rights. It is prepared using neutral actuarial assumptions and is designed to be used for joint instructions in accordance with the practice notes, to help complete Form E and be simple and straightforward to use. The fee is expected to be about £1,000 + VAT, payable in advance with a quotation provided in advance. 

The standard report service also includes follow up advice and assistance. We will ask our local consultants to contact you to offer to discuss the findings of the report and what other options might be suited to the circumstances.  Our consultants are trained to be familiar with the various options on pensions on divorce and will be able to explain the report findings and the implications for settlement.

To use this service you will need to complete our Instruction and Pension Scheme Information Forms jointly with the other party to the proceedings. We have provided a standard authority letter to help obtain necessary information from the relevant pension provider. If you have already obtained information from the pension provider in the course of completing the Form E, please attach this to the documentation.  We will contact the pension providers to obtain all the pensions information required. 

The Forms and standard letter can be downloaded in a printer friendly version. 

If you are unable to provide joint instructions you will need to obtain details of your client's spouse's pension provision and signed authority letters in respect of that provision.

Send the form  to Excalibur Actuaries, Links Cottage, 384 Seafront, Hayling Island, Hampshire, PO11 0BD. Our team will audit the forms on arrival and contact you within 3 days if further information is required. 


You will receive a completed report within 10 working days of our receipt of necessary information from the pension providers.

As part of the service we will complete an early assessment of the complexities of the case and might recommend that a supplemental report would be of better value to you and your clients.
