The FCF was established under  UK pensions legislation to provide compensation to occupational pension schemes, with insolvent employers, that suffer a loss attributable to an offence involving dishonesty.  
"Free Carrier" means that the seller fulfils its obligation to deliver when it has handed over the goods, cleared for export, into the charge of the carrier named by the buyer at the named place or point.


It applies to most defined benefit and defined contribution occupational pension schemes, however, it does not apply to state retirement pensions.
