XPS Pensions Group wins three awards at UK Pensions Awards 2022

XPS Pensions Group has won three awards at Professional Pensions' UK Pensions Awards on 13^th September, taking home Third Party Administrator of the Year, as well Actuarial and Pensions Consultancy of the Year and Investment Consultancy of the Year for the second year in a row. The company was also highly commended in the Technology Innovation of the Year category.

This was the first time that these three awards have been won outright by one company in a single year.

The prestigious awards, which are in their 25th year and are judged by an independent panel of senior industry representatives, were held at the Park Lane Hilton in London last night. The awards recognise excellence among the firms that provide services to UK schemes, and XPS Pensions Group's strong showing reflects the dedication of its people in providing first-class service to their clients.

Paul Cuff, Co-CEO at XPS Pensions Group, said:

"We are absolutely delighted to win these awards, which recognise the value we are adding for our clients helping them to meet the challenges that a volatile world is throwing at them.  It is especially pleasing to win three awards across the breadth of what we do, for our work in each of pension administration, actuarial consulting and investment consulting, reflecting our capability to deliver everything that the market needs to the highest quality.

Our business continues to go from strength to strength and the high levels of demand for our services and client activity we have seen in the first five months of this financial year are testament to the quality of our offering and our people. We would like to say a big thank you to all of our people across the whole firm for the brilliant work they do - these awards are theirs."
