Testimonials

Muse’s support was invaluable in making sure we were still able to drive forward our projects, Trustee agenda and actions during the absence of a key team member on maternity leave. It was a pleasure to work with the Muse team and we valued their wider market knowledge, willingness to challenge and independent viewpoint. Because we had worked with Muse before we ‘hit the ground running’ and Muse quickly became part of the team.
Pension Strategy Manager, CYBG plc
Muse have helped us via an independent trustee effectiveness review, a discussion workshop for the board on the findings and subsequently some planning and facilitation work for Trustee strategy sessions. The Muse team are highly capable with a strong client focus in the way they work, with us and our other advisers. Our trustee board is skilled and expects high quality and good value for money from advisers. Muse has consistently delivered this.
Chair, 3i Group Pension Plan
We appointed Muse through a competitive tender to support our actuarial selection process as a result of the thoroughness of their approach, their deep knowledge of the market and value for money. Their support was invaluable in helping us to concentrate on what would make the difference for us from our Actuary so that we could make the selection from some very strong candidates. The team was flexible and approachable; they managed the project for us professionally to ensure that the candidate firms were well briefed and engaged with the project. Muse played an important part in enabling us to select a firm best suited to our requirements and ways of working.
