Client feedback

“PSGS were overall more professional than others.”

“Ian has added more value than we thought he would at the start… which shows it pays to go with someone who is doing the job of a professional trustee as their bread and butter.”

Katherine Cross,

Tyser

“In my experience, not all professional trustees are able to cope with tricky or potentially confrontational situations. I find PSGS has massive experience in getting involved, earning the respect of others and resolving such issues. They get stuck in – they are a first rate team.”

Katherine Dandy,

Partner at Sackers & Partners

“Claire offers a very approachable, professional and balanced service, recognising her obligations to the Scheme but providing an awareness of the Employer's perspective. We value Claire's wider industry knowledge and the experience she brings.”

“Keen to assist and helpful.”

“The trustee training course covered a wide variety of subjects which gives a good basis for future discussion and decision making during trustee meetings.”

In my three years at PSIT, the business has moved from strength to strength and independent trusteeship is growing in importance, not least due to the Pensions Regulator’s focus on the 21st Century Trustee. I look forward to continue working with our great team to develop our professional trustee services to meet the demands and needs of pension schemes into the future.”
