Consultants

Derrick and Steve have known each for over 15 years since they met at Provident Mutual in the early nineties. They created Aspect Pensions Consultants to offer good value consultancy to pension schemes who needed top quality advice and service, but wanted better value than that offered by the larger consultancy firms.

Derrick McEvoy

Derrick started work in pensions in 1983 but took a different path to most of the financial services industry.  While he was working for pension companies he studied for a Financial Services degree in his spare time; while many in his industry were struggling to embrace professionalism, Derrick became an Associate and then a Fellow of the Chartered Insurance Institute.

Directly before starting Aspect Pensions Consultants, Derrick worked for more than ten years at KPMG Pensions dealing with defined benefit (final salary) schemes where he led a team of pension professionals - including actuaries, administrators and consultants. During this time he helped companies and trustees deal with a broad range of issues including pensions strategy, funding, investment and the impact of changing legislation.

Today, he is one of the most experienced and qualified financial professionals working in his field and will be well known to many people with an interest in the pensions industry as a regular speaker at local pension seminars.

Derrick lives in Knowle in Solihull. In his spare time, he plays football and does his children's homework.

Steve Hubball

Steve has been working in the financial services industry since the late 1980s. He progressed through a series of positions with some of the industry's foremost pension providers before ending up as a specialist in the pensions department of Clerical Medical. He became an Independent Financial Adviser in 1997.

Steve has a broad base of knowledge about the financial world and markets, but it is his original areas of expertise that continue to command his time – directors' pensions, company pension schemes and employee benefits.

He is registered with the Financial Services Authority (FSA) as a Pension Transfer Specialist – a title earned by examination. This gives him the knowledge and confidence to deal with the type of pension problems that have many other financial advisers running for the hills.

Steve is also Aspect's long term care and equity release specialist – backed by qualifications that are recognized by the FSA. He provides support to the rest of the team in this area.

When he is not being clever with pensions, Steve can be found running around a Real Tennis court in Leamington Spa and football pitches around the Midlands.

Testimonial

When the Trustees of a defined benefit pension scheme were faced with new funding regulations, they were concerned they would find themselves in conflict with the best interests of the Company.

Derrick was able to help the Trustees understand the range of options available and agreement on a funding rate was reached with the Company which took into account the best interests of both parties.

“Without good advice, it easy to see how conflict between sponsoring employers and scheme trustees can arise – and how consultancy fees can escalate! Derrick's common sense approach to the issues enabled us to reach a sensible agreement with the Company while fulfilling our responsibilities to scheme members,” said the Chairman of the Trustees.
