NEST
England, Scotland, Wales
The National Employment Savings Trust (NEST). Formerly referred to as personal accounts, NEST is the brand name for the government-run defined contribution pension scheme created under the Pensions Act 2008 to help UK employers meet their duties to automatically enrol all eligible jobholders in a pension scheme when these duties come into force from 2012 onwards. An employer will be able to use its own pension scheme if it meets qualifying criteria. Otherwise, it will be able to enrol jobholders in NEST.
