Following on from the article published on 11 January 2024, Aptia is now beginning the process of rebranding all communications. If you are a member of a BAE Systems' UK Defined benefit pension scheme listed below, any information you are used to receiving which has been Mercer branded is going to change to the branding of Aptia.
-
BAE Systems Pension Scheme (Levels 125, 167, 187 and 200 Benefits; Aircrew pre 2003 joiners Benefits; Level 100+ Benefits; Passport Benefits; Alvis Benefits, 2000 Plan Benefits and SIPS Benefits)
-
BAE Systems Executive Pension Scheme (Main Edition and 2006 Edition)
-
Royal Ordnance Pension Scheme (1984 Section; BMARC Section and Crown Section)
-
Royal Ordnance Senior Staff Pension Scheme
You will begin to see these changes from July 2024, including changes to letters or routine communications such as pensioner payslips and the online portal. During the transition you may see or receive communications in both Mercer and Aptia branding for a period and this is not something to be concerned about.
The Trustees of the Schemes would like to reassure you that this change has not, and will not, affect your pension benefits.
You do not need to take any action but if you have any concerns, please contact Aptia using details provided on the Contact Us page.
