What we offer
Our trust-based pensions are aimed at medium to large employers, offering specialist governance, implementation and asset transition services.
Our trust-based pension schemes
We offer several different trust-based pension schemes.
The value of investments can go down as well as up and members may get back less than has been paid in.
Aviva Master Trust
Aimed at medium to large employers, the Aviva Master Trust combines expert governance with quality investment choice. We can tailor each employer's section to suit their needs.
Own Rules Trust
This scheme is overseen by your own board of trustees. We work directly with the board to provide administration services and retirement benefits for members.
Group Additional Voluntary Contribution
Our group AVC plan sits alongside an employer’s occupational scheme and lets members pay in extra to build up their personal fund.
Section 32 Buy-out
Gives employers and trustees a hassle-free way to either wind up a scheme or transfer deferred members. It offers security and peace of mind for both trustees and members.
Aviva Master Trust
Authorised by the Pensions Regulator, the Aviva Master Trust is a fully independent solution to providing a hassle-free workplace pension scheme.
A recognised high-quality scheme, it offers a range of benefits and choice of investment options, delivering value to members whilst taking care of compliance and governance.

Investment solutions
My Future
My Future is the alternative default solution and has been designed to help members save for their retirement. Risk is managed throughout the retirement journey thanks to the mix of assets in the My Future funds, including company shares and bonds. This approach aims to grow members’ pension savings in the earlier stages of the journey and then focus on preserving members’ capital as they get closer to retirement. Environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors are integrated across My Future.
My Future Focus
My Future Focus is the Aviva Master Trust default investment solution, designed to give members the opportunity to benefit from gains in the world's financial markets. It aims to minimise any unexpected volatility, particularly as members approach retirement. ESG factors are fully integrated across My Future Focus.
ESG considerations are a non-binding but critical part of the investment process viewed alongside other risk factors. Aviva Investors' portfolio managers are empowered to make the right decisions for the best investment outcome.
Stewardship
Designed to incorporate ethical and environmental, social and governance (ESG) considerations, the Stewardship lifestyle default solution helps members save for their future while actively contributing to a sustainable long-term future for the world around them. These funds are available for members to select.
Shariah-compliant investing
Shariah-compliant investing excludes investment in certain sectors, such as alcohol, tobacco and pornography and other ‘Haram’ industries, which are not permissible according to the Islamic Faith.
Find out more about the Aviva Shariah Investment Strategy, designed to help pension scheme members save for their retirement, and in a way which is aligned with the Islamic Faith.
