Accounting Built for Pension Fund Administration
Pension funds face accounting challenges that general accountants rarely handle. Pensions SORP reporting, HMRC Accounting for Tax returns, actuarial valuation support, trustee annual reports and PPF levies all demand advisors who know how pension schemes operate under TPR and HMRC.
ABM Chartered Accountants works with defined benefit schemes, defined contribution trusts, SSAS administrators and master trust operators across England, delivering structured financial support for pension businesses and individual administrators. Every scheme account, tax return and regulatory filing is handled accurately.
Helping Pension Funds Meet Reporting Obligations
Pension fund administrators need more than basic compliance. ABM Chartered Accountants prepares scheme financial statements, HMRC returns, contribution reconciliation, investment reporting and tax planning, giving trustees clear visibility over funding levels, regulatory obligations and scheme running costs.
Whether you administer a defined benefit scheme, a defined contribution trust, a SSAS or support employers with auto-enrolment, our ICAEW and ACCA qualified team adapts to your structure, keeping the scheme and individual administrators covered on all obligations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to common questions scheme trustees, administrators and pension fund managers ask about specialist accounting.
How are pension scheme accounts prepared?
Scheme financial statements follow FRS 102 and the Pensions SORP. They include a fund account showing contributions and benefits, a net assets statement and a trustee report with investment disclosures.
Are pension funds exempt from tax?
Registered pension schemes are exempt from income tax and CGT on investments. However, administrators must file HMRC returns and pay tax charges on unauthorised payments and certain lump sums.
What HMRC reporting is required?
Scheme administrators must file Accounting for Tax returns quarterly, event reports for specific scheme events and SA970 trustee tax returns if tax has been reclaimed on investment income.
How do actuarial valuations affect accounts?
Defined benefit schemes require triennial actuarial valuations to assess funding levels. Results determine recovery plans and contribution schedules. Actuarial liabilities are disclosed in the scheme’s annual report.
What is the PPF levy?
The Pension Protection Fund charges an annual levy to defined benefit schemes funding compensation for members of schemes with insolvent employers. The levy is a significant and deductible cost.
Can ABM support pension funds nationwide?
Yes. ABM Chartered Accountants serves pension fund administrators across England using secure cloud-based platforms, delivering specialist accounting to DB schemes, DC trusts and SSAS operators.
