Your Local Government Pension Scheme benefits are not affected by stock market volatility

The Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) is a defined benefit scheme which means that the benefits payable from it are calculated using a formula. This ensures your benefits are guaranteed and protected. They are not affected by fluctuations in the stock market, investment performance or economic downturns. You can have peace of mind knowing that your LGPS pension is secure, no matter what happens in the financial markets.

Are you eligible for benefits?

Find out if you’re able to claim benefits support with the Nationwide’s ‘Better Off Indicator.’ It takes just a few minutes to complete and could make the difference between struggling with the cost of living and being better off. Visit their website at Check if you can claim for benefits | Nationwide

The North Yorkshire Pension Fund does not have a contractual relationship with the Nationwide and does not promote any other services they provide. If you choose to use the ‘Better Off Indicator’, the Fund is not responsible for any information that is provided.
