Sponsors of the Aviva Corporate Master Trust

Aviva are the Sponsors of the Aviva Corporate Master Trust and are also the Registered Administrator. Our Corporate Master Trust provides employers and members with a wide investment choice across a range of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) solutions which allow members to have as much or as little an active engagement on how their money is managed. As one of the largest insurers across Ireland and the UK, you can rely on our size and strength to be there, when we are needed most.

What is a Master Trust?

A Master Trust is an occupational pension scheme. The Aviva Corporate Master Trust consists of one legal trust and a board of trustees, which acts as trustee for the whole trust. Each employer using the trust has its own section within the overall arrangement.

The role of the Trustee is crucial. They have ultimate responsibility for the investments in the scheme and the ways in which the scheme serves its members. The Trustees are supported by Key Function Holders – Grant Thornton as the Internal Audit Partner and LCP as Risk Manager.

Is a Master Trust the right choice for you?

Aviva recognises that employers have an important choice to make when it comes ensuring they meet any regulatory requirements for pensions provision including IORP II.

The Aviva Corporate Master Trust will provide comfort that all regulatory requirements are met and includes a number of benefits:

  • Significantly reduced compliance costs for employers compared to running their own trust-based scheme
  • Professional oversight and governance on members benefits
  • A wide range of funds across different risk profiles, asset classes, fund managers and investment styles
  • Access to our default My Future range of Lifestyle strategies
