Manage your pension to keep providing for your dependants if you die

It’s a good idea to check and update your details whenever your personal circumstances change. You can do this online by logging on to Member Self Service. From 30 May 2022 you will need to log in to MSS to update these details. 



The Trustee and the Life Assurance Trustee will consider your wishes but, for tax reasons, aren’t bound by them.

Help for your family if you die

If you die as a deferred hybrid member, the total value of your DC pension pot (including the value of HSBC’s contributions) will be paid as a lump sum at the Trustee’s discretion.

In addition you'll receive a pension payable from your DB benefits for your spouse or civil partner. For details of the DB pension payable in the event of your death you should refer to your individual scheme booklet which can be found in the Information Centre.

To find out more about your DB benefits, visit the Information Centre and go to ‘Member Guides’. Then select your former scheme booklet.
