This note provides an outline of the treatment of pensions on bankruptcy.
Prior to the reforms introduced by the Welfare Reform and Pensions Act 1999 (WRPA 1999), an individual’s rights under his/her pension constituted ‘property’ within the meaning of section 436 of the Insolvency Act 1986 and, with certain exceptions, thus formed part of the bankrupt’s estate and vested in his/her trustee in bankruptcy (pursuant to section 306 of the IA 1986).
