What is Pension Funds Online?

Pension Funds Online is a fully searchable online database containing information about the largest pension funds from both the UK and the rest of the world. Alongside contact and financial information for major pension funds this online database provides details of thousands of companies who supply advisory services to pension funds.

All the contact data and pension fund information on this website is drawn from the leading print directories, Pension Funds and their Advisers (The Blue Book) and International Pension Funds and their Advisers (The Red Book). In order to supply the most up-to-date pension fund intelligence, information is updated on this website on a daily basis.

Read-only and fully downloadable subscriptions are available as well as the choice to purchase access to UK only, International only or combined UK and International pensions information.

Accuracy Guarantee
All records on the site, both fund and adviser, are comprehensively updated on an annual basis as well as additional research being undertaken all year round. The annual update is carried out in various forms. Every company is sent either a paper questionnaire or an email and is asked to supply updated information. Those that fail to respond to this initial prompting are contacted again and if a reply is still not forthcoming then that company is telephoned and the information checked that way. Updates are carried out continuously through magazine research, website research and financial information gleaned from various other data sources.
