The Empathy Trust

Your Empathy UK Funeral Plan fund payments are paid into the ‘Empathy UK Trust’, a completely independent and secure Trust Fund set up to meet the requirements of Articles 50 and 60 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (and therefore complies with FCA regulations).

Non-profit Trust Fund

The Empathy UK Trust operates entirely independently of Empathy UK Funeral Plans. The Trust is run by a Board of Trustees who are supported by key professionals including FCA regulated fund managers and IFoA and FRC regulated actuaries, who review the Fund regularly to ensure that it is fit for purpose.

The Trustees manage the Trust funds on behalf of the Planholders. The Trust is not profit making and it’s sole purpose is to safeguard the future provision of funeral costs. The Trust ensures your funds are protected so that sufficient resources are always immediately available, ensuring we can supply the funeral you have paid for when the time comes.
