Key moments in our history
Local Pensions Partnership expertise Icon
LPP is one of eight national Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) pools, bringing together £26.3 billion of investment assets (as at 30 June 2024).

We manage the investments for the pension funds of Lancashire County Pension Fund, the London Pensions Fund Authority and the Royal County of Berkshire. 

We are here to provide excellence in pensions but at a cost which is acceptable to partners - we are motivated by delivery of our service levels and the sustainability of our business, rather than aiming for high profit margins.
