FAS provides financial assistance to members of defined benefit pension schemes who lost all or part of their pension following their scheme coming to an end between 1 January 1997 and 5 April 2005. Today we look after 139,000 FAS members.
Unlike the PPF, the FAS doesn't take on any new members
Applications from schemes closed in 2016. When your scheme transferred into the FAS, we would have sent you a welcome pack, including details of your former pension scheme. If you believe you should be a FAS member but you’ve not been contacted by us, please get in touch with the Pension Tracing Service.Register for our member website
