A PAYE worker looking to setup a Small Self Administered Pension Scheme (SSAS) must get a director of the company they work for to agree to and sign the trust document. This is required so that the trustee company can apply for revenue approval of the scheme.
The director would need to be completely satisfied with what they are signing to ensure the company is not liable for anything in the future. These trust documents are not an easy read.
Generally speaking, what is a company agreeing to when signing such a trust document?
As far as I know, when an employer agrees to setup a SART for an employee. The Trustees of the SART will be the employee and the trustee company, removing your employer's responsibility. They are no longer a trustee.
