What our clients say

“As a family-owned business, looking after our people matters deeply to us. We’d worked for years to reduce risk in our pension scheme, but Clara offered something we couldn’t easily have done alone: real capital backing and a secure route to full benefit protection. It was the right decision for our members and for the business”

Philip Wainwright
Chief Financial Officer, Wates Group

“Ever since Debenhams went into administration, the trustees have been working hard to find a solution that is in our members’ best interests. We are confident that transferring members’ benefits to Clara provides the best available outcome for them.”

Mark Cliff
Chair of Trustees, Debenhams Retirement Scheme
