Subject
Mr Pusinelli complains about changes made to his pension plan
The Deputy Pensions Ombudsman’s determination and short reasons
The complaint should not be upheld against Close Brothers Group Plc or the Trustees of the Close Brothers Limited (1979) Pension Plan because there does not appear to have been any breach of law or maladministration in respect of the rules. Even if there was maladministration with regard to past practice, the Trustees are now administering the Plan correctly and Mr Pusinelli has not suffered any loss from any past failure to do so. There is no contractual entitlement as claimed by Mr Pusinelli.
