Pension Trustees
Saving for your future
The Scheme is looked after by a trustee company called The Trustees of the Univar Limited Pension Scheme (1978). It has a Trustee board, some of whom are appointed by the Company and some who have been nominated by the members of the Scheme.
The Scheme’s assets are held on behalf of members, pensioners and beneficiaries in a trust fund which is completely separate from the Company. The Trustees administer the Scheme in accordance with the Trust Deed and Rules.
