The Avon Pension Fund is in the process of moving to a new AVC provider.
Aviva, our current AVC provider, will no longer accept new employer applications and we are therefore in the process of appointing a new AVC provider.
From 1 October 2022, we will temporarily suspend new applications to any of the existing Aviva AVC schemes. As soon as we have appointed a new provider, new AVC applications will commence again with the new provider. This is likely to be from December. Deductions in respect of existing AVC contracts with Aviva will continue during this interim period.
Full details of the new arrangements will be announced shortly, including what this will mean for existing members of the current schemes.
