Based on Auckland’s North Shore, GBPensions is run by British expats and specialises in the complex area of pension transfers. We can help you track down your Defined Benefit (DB) or Defined Contribution (DC) pension scheme details so you can make an informed decision about what to do next.

Depending on your circumstances, wants and needs, you may choose to leave your pension where it is in the UK, move it to a UK SIPP (Self-Invested Personal Pension) or transfer it to an NZ QROPS (Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme).

Don’t worry about the financial jargon; that’s our job. We promise to communicate in plain, everyday English, so you can be confident in whatever you decide.
