A smarter way to manage your scheme
If you’re looking for a smarter, more cost-effective way to manage your pension scheme Dalriada.Together, our operational pension consolidation model, offers a solution built around your needs.
Managing your pension scheme the traditional way can consume a lot of your company’s time, budget, and energy. Today’s increasing regulatory demands, fragmented advisory models and rising costs are challenges that show no signs of slowing down.
At Dalriada, we saw a better alternative. Drawing on my eight years of experience at Dalriada – and the expertise of colleagues from across pensions governance, administration, actuarial and investment – I’ve been fortunate to help shape the Dalriada.Together model from the ground up.
And for the schemes already benefiting from this approach? The results speak for themselves:
- Spending significantly less time on day-to-day scheme management.
- Overall reducing annual costs through greater efficiency.
- Achieving a clear tailored strategy for the short, medium and long term plan for their scheme goals.
What does Operational Pensions Consolidation mean?
In simple terms, it means: bringing all your pension schemes key functions – administration, actuarial, accounting, recordkeeping, compliance and reporting into a streamlined, integrated model.
Why you should consider consolidation?
The goals are simple:
- Cost efficiency – reduce overhead by centralising operations.
- Consistency – create unified processes and systems across schemes.
- Improved service – enhance member experience, communication and response times.
- Risk reduction – strengthen oversight and simplify compliance.
How does Dalriada.Together achieve this?
