Mark Smith,

Partner at Taylor Wessing

“The trustee training course lecturers' explanations and willingness to answer questions were most valuable - even silly ones - although I have learnt there are no 'silly questions' that trustees should ask.”

We are pleased to announce that Punter Southall Group has agreed to purchase the Reading based HR Trustees from Xafinity plc. HR Trustees will form part of PS Independent Trustees (PSIT), Punter Southall Group’s trustee company, and will be completely independent of the new Xafinity Punter Southall business.

The purchase enables us to expand the depth and breadth of PSIT’s professional trustee, scheme secretarial and pensions governance offerings. The HR Trustees team members are expected to transfer in early January 2018, bringing the total PSIT team to nearly 40 people.

The acquisition means PSIT will become the UK’s second largest professional trustee company by turnover and will be truly independent of any pension scheme advisers. The combined business will look after well over 200 clients with total assets of over £30bn and covering over 300,000 scheme members.

We look forward to welcoming our new colleagues from HR Trustees. Combining the two businesses is truly exciting and will enable us to make further investment in both our delivery and range of client services.
