Testimonials

Muse Advisory's objective assessment of the effectiveness of the Trustee Board's governance arrangements was well received. They also helped us map roles and responsibilities succinctly and with clarity.
UK Pensions Manager, BAT UK Pension Fund
Muse run very bespoke, organised and professional selection exercises. We enjoy working with Stacy and the team as their independence encourages sharing of information and a strong working relationship.
Head of DC Sales, Legal & General
Muse helped us switch our administration provider. Their work included confirming the decision to change providers, identifying our requirements, facilitating the entire RfP process and then advising on commercial/ operational contractual matters. This was a significant project for us. It was completed successfully on time and on budget. Muse’s advice, professionalism and efficiency was excellent throughout, and their guidance and expertise was both reassuring and very much appreciated.
