Pensions Terminology
It is now some 27 years since the first edition of “Pensions
Terminology” was produced. It was developed to encourage all pension
practitioners to speak the same language.
There have been regular reviews since, as the number of terms
have increased requiring definition and explanation. This reflects the
continuing and increasing complexity of the subject, as well as the quantity of
legislation which surrounds it. The current, 7th edition, was produced in 2007.
Details of how to order copies, including electronic copies,

Terms from 2002 edition
A list of "old terms" from the 2002 edition can be
found here. It was felt that these terms were
not current enough for inclusion in the glossary but were not yet ready to be
completely deleted.
Ordering
Pensions Terminology is available at £15 per copy or £10 per
copy when ordering 10 or more.
It can also be bought as a pdf file for individual or company
intranet use. See the order form for further details.
