Scheme history

The Scheme’s origins date back to 1969 when it was part of the Post Office Staff Superannuation Scheme, (as telecom services had historically been supplied by the Post Office.)

Trustees and Trustee duties

The Scheme’s Trustee is BT Pension Scheme Trustees Limited, a corporate Trustee with ultimate fiduciary responsibility for the Scheme and its members. The Trustee’s key responsibility is to ensure that BTPS pays benefits as they fall due. In addition to the Chair, there are four employer nominated Trustee Directors and four member nominated Trustee Directors on the board.

The Chair is appointed by BT with the agreement of the recognised BT Trade Unions.
