SAB centralised Code of Transparency data system closing down – one month notice

This is the final notice that the centralised data system run by Byhiras in support of the LGPS Code of Transparency will be closed down on 28 August 2026 at 5.00pm. After this date, the website will be inaccessible, and the service will be decommissioned. Users will not be able to access any data in the system after this point. The data held in the Byhiras system will be securely destroyed and will no longer be available to users, Byhiras or the Board.

Users are strongly advised to:

• download all of their data from the system before the system shuts down leaving sufficient time to contact Byhiras directly at [email protected] to resolve any issues they encounter when doing this
• notify asset managers about the closure of the system and discuss the arrangements for sharing cost information in the future. This is likely to be collected via the asset pooling companies and may include using the new Cost Transparency and Benchmarking Services framework.

Please note that whilst Byhiras are providers under Lot 1 of the new framework, the product they will be providing is separate to the current system so all cost data must be removed. A final notice on the system shutdown will also be circulated via the LGPC bulletin and has been sent via email using contacts selected from the Byhiras system and the Your Contacts database.

The Board thanks Byhiras for their pivotal work in supporting the implementation of the LGPS Code of Transparency over the last seven years and helping to embed standardised investment cost reporting across the LGPS.
