Guaranteed Minimum Pension (GMP)

GMP may be one part of your Fund pension. It’s linked to the old two-tier State Pension arrangement. 

Put simply, past GMP benefits may be unequal because the State Pension Age used to be different for men and women. Following the High Court ruling, all UK pension schemes like ours must adjust benefits for the effect of unequal GMP. 

See our ‘Questions and answers’ page for more details.
