The UK's first superfund

As the fiduciary manager for Clara Pensions we are thrilled to support them on their journey as the UK’s first superfund.

The Clara transaction illustrates innovation in the market and serves as an viable alternative for DB pension schemes as they approach their end-game. For sponsoring employers, it provides the opportunity to move their pension scheme off their balance sheets whilst providing a high degree of security for it’s members. Lastly, we believe it has many potential benefits for scheme members given Clara’s ‘members-first’ ethos. Find out more in the video below.
