SEI Appointed as Fiduciary Manager for £ 127 Million Sappi UK Pension Scheme
(firmenpresse) - LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM -- (Marketwired) -- 09/23/13 -- (NASDAQ: SEIC) today announced that it has been appointed as by the Trustees of the Sappi U.K. pension scheme (Sappi). SEI will act as fiduciary manager for the total assets of Sappi's £ 127 million defined benefit scheme in the U.K. The company sponsor, Sappi, is a global company focused on providing dissolving wood pulp, paper pulp, and paper based solutions. Sappi chose SEI after a competitive process involving several providers.
As Sappi's dedicated fiduciary manager, SEI will provide strategic investment advice and full implementation of a bespoke investment strategy and journey plan (de-risking/re-risking plan) to meet the company's funding goals. SEI will also manage the scheme's day-to-day investment strategy including selection and replacement of managers, tactical asset allocation, journey plan implementation, funding level monitoring, and reporting.
"We decided to appoint a fiduciary manager because of a desire by the trustee body to be more proactive in managing the scheme's funding level. We felt that partnering with a fiduciary manager would allow us to delegate the day-to-day management of the scheme, providing us with more time to focus on strategic issues. Our experience to date has supported this decision. We selected SEI as our partner because we were impressed with the company's considerable track record of providing both advice and implementation, and the strength of its process."
"We are delighted that the Trustees of the Sappi scheme have appointed SEI. 2013 has been a strong year for SEI's fiduciary management business and the huge momentum behind sales is a testament to the growing acceptance of fiduciary management as a model, and the recognition of SEI's expertise as a specialist provider. We look forward to further success in the remainder of the year and to working with all our clients to achieve their funding objectives."
