Testimonials

We have very much valued working with Muse in a review of our pension administration arrangements. The Muse team was incredibly helpful in helping us prepare for the review, in guiding us through the various assessment stages, and in helping us to get to the right decision for our Schemes. The documentation produced during the process, from the RfP itself, through to the reporting in support of the decision making process, has been first class. I would like to offer my sincere thanks and gratitude for all of the hard work, commitment and support. The Muse team were an absolute delight to work in partnership with, on what could potentially have been a difficult programme.
Group Head of Pensions & Benefits, DMGT
Muse continue to provide excellent independent support to us and their clients. Their operating model provides a refreshing change: quality, independently minded people who are good at what they do. Muse know where they want to operate and continually seek to take new ideas into those areas. Muse continue to punch above their weight.
Head of Trustee Services, Unilever
Muse helped us to agree a future investment governance model appropriate for our organisation. They have deep knowledge of the advisory and fiduciary management market and we were impressed with how well they listened to all views, helped us consider all the options and, importantly, obtain buy in from all key stakeholders.
