Common Pension Consolidation Scenarios
Pension consolidation cases vary widely in complexity. We regularly support advisers working through clients with multiple legacy pensions built up across previous employers, schemes with materially different charging structures, and cases where a comparison is needed between existing arrangements and a proposed new plan before any recommendation is made. Some cases also involve safeguarded benefits or exit penalties, which require particularly careful handling and clear client explanation.
Our Planning Tools
Our Pension Consolidation Process
From instruction to delivery, our process is designed to remove administrative strain from your team. Once you submit a case, we gather the relevant scheme information, verify plan details and charges, and carry out a comparative analysis against the client’s objectives and risk profile. We then prepare a structured, easy-to-follow report setting out our findings and rationale, ready for your review and sign-off before it reaches the client.

Client Use Case
A Financial Advisory Firm Outsources Pension Reports to Focus on Client Growth
A mid-sized financial advisory firm experienced rapid growth, increasing its client base and requiring more pension consolidation reports. The firm’s in-house team struggled to keep up with demand, causing delays in report generation and impacting client service levels.
As a result, the firm efficiently managed its growing workload without hiring additional in-house staff, allowing them to focus on scaling their business and delivering high-quality financial advisory services.
By partnering with Root Paraplanning for pension consolidation report writing, the firm:
Eliminated reporting bottlenecks and reduced turnaround times.
Enhanced report quality while ensuring full compliance with regulatory standards.
Freed up internal advisers to focus on client engagement, retention, and acquisition.
Improved overall client satisfaction, strengthening their reputation in the market.
What Our Clients Say.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a pension consolidation report take?
Turnaround depends on your service tier and the number of schemes involved. Under our standard Contingent service, reports are typically delivered within 5 working days of case review; this is faster under our Foundation and Enhanced Retainer tiers. Visit our Pricing page for full details.
What information do you need to start a case?
To begin, we typically need the client’s existing scheme details (provider, plan numbers and any available statements), confirmation of the client’s objectives, and, where relevant, any Letters of Authority already in progress. If you need help gathering this information first, our Administrative Services team can handle data collection on your behalf. We’ll also require an illustration for the intended receiving scheme. We can also produce illustrations on your behalf, including liaison with BDMs for platform discounts.
