LONDON (24 May 2016) – Aon Hewitt, the global talent, retirement and health solutions business of Aon plc (NYSE:AON), has been appointed to provide delegated investment services to the Diodes Zetex Pension Scheme.

Aon Hewitt will provide full fiduciary management services to the technology hardware company’s £75 million defined benefit pension scheme.

Paul Wilson of HR Trustees and chair of the trustees of the Diodes Zetex Pension Scheme said:
“Having undertaken a thorough due diligence and selection process, we felt that Aon Hewitt would be the best fiduciary provider for our scheme. The solution they offer addresses all our needs - demonstrating they had really listened to us - and that is reflected in the portfolio. It also improves our governance framework whilst giving us better control of the scheme’s key risks, all in a cost-efficient manner, which were the main reasons we chose Aon Hewitt.”

Sion Cole, partner and head of European Distribution at Aon Hewitt, said:
“We worked closely with Paul Wilson and the other trustees from the outset to build a strong relationship and to gain a real understanding of their unique needs. We believe that tailoring fiduciary solutions to reflect the exact needs of our clients is vital to long term success.

“We are very pleased to have been appointed as fiduciary provider by the Diodes Zetex Pension Scheme and look forward to helping them achieve their objectives. Aon Hewitt’s fiduciary business continues to grow strongly in the UK. We believe this latest win, alongside our recent fiduciary manager industry award wins, reaffirms our position as a leading provider of fiduciary management services in the UK.”
