The Firefighters' Pension Schemes participate in the Public Sector Transfer Club ('the Club').
The Public Sector Transfer Club memorandum provides further details on the inner and outer club arrangements. Inner club is CARE to CARE and outer club is final salary to final salary.
Guidance and factors for calculating 'Club' transfers in each of the 1992, 2006 and 2015 schemes are held on this page. Where a member has mixed benefits the two parts are dealt with under the guidance for each scheme.
Updated Club transfer factors calculated using the new SCAPE discount rate for NPAs 55, 60, 65, 66, 67 and 68 can be found under the scheme headings below.
