    I doubt its that good. The only way to calculate the yield is to compare transfer values each year is that what you did?

    If that was a question for me, then yes - it is a comparison of the yearly report transfer values for the 3 years in question.

    I am currently opted back in to Serps/S2P, so the PR part isn't being added to. The end of year figures for this are :

    Feb 2005 : £35208
    Feb 2006 : (£32159+£7722) = £39882 (+8.9%)
    Feb 2007 : (£33222+£12338) = £45561 (+14.2%)
    Feb 2008 : (£34299+£16930) = £51230 (+12.4%)

    The first figure is the plan value, the second the bonus. I realise that the bonus can be changed retrospectively.

    I am still contributing to the Non PR part of the fund (mainly through Salary Sacrifice) and that is producing similar returns.

    I don't think I'm doing anything wrong in my sums - am I?

    Cheers,
    Judwin
