LPFA - your pension our worldAccess Keys:
The London Pensions Fund Authority (LPFA) is one of the largest Local Government Pension Schemes (LGPS) in England with over 73,000 members and assets of over £3.2 billion (at June 2009). More information about the LPFA can be found in the history page or by contacting us directly.
LPFA also carries out third party pension administration and other LGPS services. Currently LPFA carries out administration for Bexley Council, Brent Council, Hammersmith & Fulham Council, London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority (LFEPA), London Borough of Newham and Westminster City Council.
The LPFA has launched a new website to promote the affordability of the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS). The website www.affordable-lgps.org.uk contains key facts about the LGPS and discusses options which would make it a more affordable and sustainable scheme. You will also find details of the events which are being run to support the affordability campaign. A symposium was held on 24th February 2010 and slides from the event can be accessed from the website.
LPFA recently issued a press release (PDF 27KB - link opens new window) which called for an Independent Pensions Commission for the LGPS to be established and was supplemented by a green paper (PDF 28KB - link opens new window) which outlined what that Commission might look like.
