Welcome to Scottish Borders Council Pension Fund website.             

The Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) is a national scheme for local government employees. This website gives details of the main features of the current pension scheme and shows you how important it is not just at retirement but throughout your working life. It will also keep you informed of the latest changes and how they affect you.

Scottish Borders Council administers the LGPS within Scottish Borders on behalf of the Council and a number of other participating employers.

The Pensions Team is responsible for collecting scheme contributions and calculating and paying scheme benefits.

The Fund’s  investments are looked after by external investment managers. The performance of the Fund is monitored internally by the Treasury Management Section.

We hope you find the website information helpful and user friendly. If you have any comments about the site please send them using the online enquiry form.
