Part 1: Financial Guidance Etc Objectives and functions of the single financial guidance body Section 4: Specific requirements as to the pensions guidance function
Section 4 requires the single financial guidance body to provide information and guidance for the purposes of helping a pension scheme member, or the survivor of a member, to make decisions about what to do with the ‘flexible benefits’ that may be provided to them.
	Subsection (2) ensures that this includes members and survivors of schemes for which the Pension Protection Fund (PPF) has assumed responsibility. Where this is the case, references to flexible benefits are to be read as references to the money purchase benefits that may be provided by the PPF.
