If your sponsoring employer is facing financial distress, you need clarity, accuracy, and confidence every step of the way.
Broadstone supports trustees and sponsors before, during, and after insolvency – helping you plan effectively, protect members’ interests, and prepare for a potential Pension Protection Fund (PPF) assessment.
As a core member of the PPF’s Specialist Administration and Actuarial Services Panel since 2012, Broadstone brings proven experience, technical precision, and empathy to every scheme we support. We guide trustees and members through the 18-month assessment process, ensuring accuracy, continuity, and confidence from start to finish.
Broadstone is a founding member of the PPF’s Specialist Administration and Actuarial Services Panel and holds the PPF Trustmark – which recognises panellists’ expertise and high level of service.

“We’re really proud to be one of just four firms selected for the Pension Protection Fund’s Specialist Administration and Actuarial Services panel. Our specialist work involves supporting trustees of distressed schemes helping prepare for or navigate through the PPF assessment process. We know that insolvency can be a worrying and uncertain time for pension scheme members. That’s why our team brings not just expertise, but empathy.
We’ve helped more than 100 schemes reach their Endgame, offering clear guidance and reassurance throughout. Being part of the PPF panel is a real honour, and we’re excited to continue supporting trustees and their members with care, clarity, and confidence.”
