Why It's Different

FairSplit bridges the gap between the basic ‘add-and-divide’ approach and full actuarial (or PODE) reports. It uses PAG2-aligned pension division calculation methods to model lifetime income equality, the benchmark for fairness in UK divorce cases.

The tool also includes built-in PODE flags to alert you when your case involves complexities such as:

  • Public sector defined benefit schemes (e.g., NHS, Teachers, Civil Service)
  • Large age gaps between parties (7+ years)
  • Crystallised benefits

If PODE flags appear, FairSplit will recommend obtaining a formal actuarial (or PODE) report before proceeding.

Used by family mediators and solicitors

"FairSplit is a very useful and well thought-out tool. I've tested it using scenarios involving both defined benefit and defined contribution schemes and found the outputs clear, transparent and easy to work with. It helps couples better understand their pension options, reality-test outcomes, and decide when a more detailed PODE report is genuinely necessary. I also think it has real value in supporting mediators to talk about pensions with greater confidence. The PAG2 alignment, neutrality and anonymity are particularly reassuring, and I expect to make good use of the system."

John E Hind, Director of Compass Resolution Ltd, Family Mediator and Divorce Coach

"FairSplit is such a helpful tool, particularly when initially discussing pensions with clients and what a pension share or offset could look like. This is difficult to calculate without a PODE report, which often takes time and can be expensive for clients. With this cost-effective and easy-to-use tool, I was able to produce an indication for a client within minutes. It gave them the initial advice needed to negotiate, with the relevant warnings included where a PODE report may be required. I would happily recommend this tool to any family practitioner as something they should have in their wheelhouse of resources."

Zhenja Cann, Senior Associate, Thrings

"FairSplit gives you a quick and easy way of checking a pension sharing / pension offset settlement. I use it in my financial neutral work as a sense check prior to either instructing a full pension on divorce expert (PODE) report or proceeding with the results. For simple calculations this is a brilliant and welcome tool. For more complex cases it gives a useful early indicator of values, and it can assist with direction. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend its use."

Phil O'Connor, Resolution Accredited Financial Planner

"An excellent professional tool, which is easy to explain to clients, supporting early conversations around pension fairness, which is critical in a divorce negotiation and settlement. This tool allows us to work cost-effectively with our clients to provide an overview of options with initial analysis. It helps the clients to then make informed decisions around pensions and the need for a full pension report."

Bessie Hanson, Co-founder of Brigstow Family Law

Trust, Transparency & Compliance

Important: All outputs are based on indicative financial assumptions. For complex cases or court-bound matters, you should obtain professional advice from a qualified specialist actuary or pension on divorce expert (PODE).

FairSplit combines clarity with caution, helping professionals and clients make informed decisions early while knowing when professional PODE advice is essential.
