Your Will, Beneficiary Form and Intestate Succession: In this presentation Somila  Putuma from Simeka (the UCTRF Benefit Consultants), explains how the death benefit paid from the UCTRF is allocated by the UCTRF Board, the importance of making a will and what happens if you die without a valid will in place.
Grandidge Mahura Investments: Gradidge Mahura Investments (GMI) are the appointed advisors to the UCTRF. GMI has been appointed to assist members approaching retirement with retirement planning. Members who over 50 are eligible to receive 3 consultations with GMI (paid for by the UCTRF) prior to their retirement. In addition, the UCTRF has negotiated preferential rates with GMI for all members should you require financial  advice. In this presentation Kagisho Mahura provides more information about GMI.
