Pensions

Programs to provide employees with retirement income after they meet minimum age and service requirements. Life insurers hold some of these funds. Since the 1970s responsibility for funding retirement has increasingly shifted from employers (defined benefit plans that promise workers a specific retirement income) to employees (defined contribution plans financed by employees that may or may not be matched by employer contributions). (See Defined benefit plan; Defined contribution plan)

Do you have old policies lying about? Perhaps it's a term or whole of life insurance, pension, endowment, bond or an annuity policy. Or do you receive statements for a policy which you are unsure about? Why not use Policy Detective to find the answers.

Which company now looks after your policy? Who can you contact about your policy? What do all those words and phrases on my policy document actually mean?

Policy Detective is a UK company for UK customers. We help you to track-down the Administrators for policies which you or your loved ones may have in the bureau or the attic. You never know how much money there could be in that old policy. It's not easy to find this information, as companies through time are taken-over, merge with other companies and even change their names. We can help you find the company which now deals with your policy. Some companies even allow us to check the status of your policy.
