The main UK body representing the interests of the occupational pensions movement. It provides representation and other services for those involved in designing, operating, advising and investing funds of pension schemes in the UK. Due to the voting power that members collectively possess as institutional investors, the PLSA's views are important to UK public companies on matters such as voting. Indeed, the PLSA publishes annual Stewardship and Voting Guidelines.

The PLSA was rebranded from the National Association of Pension Funds (NAPF) on 15 October 2015, reflecting the way in which saving for retirement is changing and as part of a strategy to support savers more broadly.
