Hertfordshire Pension Fund is part of the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS). The scheme is open to all employees of Hertfordshire County Council and a range of community service providers, academies, local colleges and town and parish councils.

At Hertfordshire Pension Fund, we are committed to providing a high-quality pension service to both our members and scheme employers. We have regular operational meetings, oversee third party contracts and report quarterly to the Pension Committee and Local Pension Board. We are responsible for any discretionary decisions and ensure that the scheme is effectively governed.

Local Pensions Partnership Administration (LPPA)

Additional Voluntary Contributions (AVCs)

An AVC is an arrangement that allows you to build up pension benefits with a separate AVC provider alongside your LGPS pension. Our AVC provider is Standard Life.

An AVC is a separate pot of money and is not part of your main LGPS pension. You can pay into an AVC if you are in the main or 50/50 section of the LGPS.
