- New EPA estimator and alpha Added Pension calculator
The EPA estimator and alpha Added Pension calculator are now available on the website. You can find them here. Members considering applying for an EPA, or an alpha Added Pension can use these tools to see how much these flexible products will cost them.
- Please be aware that we cannot accept applications for either products until 1 April 2015 as members have to be in alpha to be able to purchase them. We will confirm when the application forms are available which will be towards the end of March 2015.
- New Member Communications Material
At EPN423 we advised new communications material would be available from 17 February. You can find the most up to date documents here:
- Pension Changes Update e-bulletin (Issue 4) on alpha;
- alpha Scheme Guide; and
- EPA Factsheet.
Please do not forward this EPN to members but please do signpost your employees to these important communications.
