Not a member yet?
The Defined Contribution (DC) Section of the Plan offers you a simple and flexible way to build up your retirement savings. The longer you wait to join, the less savings you’ll have when you stop working. Start saving earlier on in your career, rather than leaving it for another day.
How much is paid in?
You pay in and the Company pays in. The contributions the Company makes will depend on how much you contribute to your savings. The more you put in, the more the Company puts in – so make the most of it!
Check out the Defined Contribution page to see how much you can save and the amount that the Company will contribute
It’s not too late to join!
Joining is voluntary, but you’ll be automatically enrolled subject to you meeting certain criteria. You can read more about what this means in the D&B (UK) Pension Plan – Membership booklet.
If you don’t join the DC Section of the Plan, the Company won’t contribute towards your retirement savings. You also won’t be entitled to the full benefits described in the 'Providing for your spouse, children and dependants'
section in the D&B (UK) Pension Plan – Membership booklet.
However, you’ll still build up State Pension entitlements.
