Family Business United is delighted to be working with our friends and partners at Western Pension Solutions who are investigating the future of pensions for family businesses.


Have your say on the matter by taking part in our survey that will help shape the future of the family business pension arena.


The team at WPS have compiled a very short questionnaire to gain insights from the community as to their thoughts as part of the evaluation process.


The attached survey includes ten simple to answer questions, seven on your thoughts about pensions generally and the fit with your family business and the final couple around a new opportunity, Collective Defined Contribution (CDC) schemes. 


The survey should take no more than a couple of minutes to complete and will help inform and shape future discussions. We would really appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.



In the meantime, if you have any questions, or the team at WPS can help in any way, you can get in touch with them here


For those of you that are interested, the attached PDF explains more about this new type of scheme:
