A guide to the DPB regime

The DPB Board have produced a Guide to the DPB regime which summarises many aspects. The Handbook has been approved by the FCA and will always take precedence over any other material published by the DPB Board, including the DPB Guide

Style forms

The Board has also produced style forms to help firms in investigating the identity of clients and analyse the risk for Anti-Money Laundering purposes.

Forms for pension trustees and non-trustees are available to download. These forms are simply guides and do not constitute legal advice. While care has been taken to ensure that they are accurate, up to date and useful, the IFoA will not accept any legal liability in relation to their content.
