On 7 July 2016 the AEA Technology (AEAT) pension scheme transferred to the Pension Protection Fund (PPF).<\/p>
<\/p>
The PPF is the statutory compensation scheme. It provides compensation to members of eligible defined benefit pension schemes where the sponsoring employer has become insolvent and the scheme is unable to secure its pension liabilities at least at PPF compensation levels.<\/p>
<\/p>
AEAT scheme members who are over their scheme\u2019s normal pension age (NPA) at the date that their employer became insolvent would receive 100 per cent of their accrued scheme benefits, as calculated at the date of employer insolvency. Those members under NPA at the date that the employer became insolvent would receive PPF compensation paid at 90 per cent of accrued scheme benefits, as calculated at the date of employer insolvency.<\/p>"}

The Government\u2019s view is that cashback without a purchase has the potential to be a valuable facility to cash users, and play an important role in the UK\u2019s cash infrastructure. That is why the Government made legislative changes to support the widespread offering of cashback without a purchase by shops and other businesses as part of the Financial Services Act 2021. The financial services industry is already seeking to take advantage of these changes to the benefit of cash users; working with retailers to get this service rolled out to local communities.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Government does not intend to mandate the provision of cashback without a purchase, which could impose associated costs on business.<\/p>"}

Decisions about what products are offered to individual businesses remain commercial decisions for banks and building societies.
