1 For Adviser use only it's not for use with clients Defined Benefit Checklist This Checklist aims to help you examine, audit and sense-check the benefits that could be derived from your client s defined benefit scheme and specifically how these satisfy your client s aims and objectives for their retirement journey. It is acknowledged that any benefits under such a defined benefit arrangement will by their nature be valuable. These benefits vary and may comprise of tax-free cash, dependant s provision and income guarantees. When dealing with a client who is a member of a defined benefit scheme, it is normally recognised that the best course of action is for the member to remain in the scheme. Any change to this requires full analysis and documentation and must be in the client's best interest. How to use the Checklist: > Part 1 Client's defined benefit scheme details > Part 2 Client's aims and objectives > Part 3 Sense check Client's defined benefit scheme details versus client's aims and objectives The Checklist aims to enable an initial conversation between you and your client regarding their defined benefit pension scheme benefits in the wider context of pension freedoms and to help determine whether the services of a pension transfer specialist are required. It then starts by asking you to analyse your client's benefits available through the defined benefit scheme comparing them with your client's aims and objectives. There will be an holistic interpretation required given the wider context of the client's personal and financial situation. Your analysis may need to explore and compare alternatives.
