Beneficiary tracing

Beneficiary tracing

Register so we can check whether you may be linked to an estate, policy, fund, or benefit.

What this is

South African funds, insurers, and estates hold benefits whose owners could not be reached — members who moved, beneficiaries who were never told, dependants a fund could not find. Retirement funds, for example, must distribute death benefits to dependants under section 37C of the Pension Funds Act, and they cannot do that for people they cannot locate.

When you register, we check your details against records we can lawfully access, and keep checking as new information becomes available. Registration is free and does not commit you to anything.

What to expect

No match is guaranteed.

We will notify you securely if a possible match appears.

Keep your details updated so we can contact you if new information becomes available.

How to stay safe

We will never ask for banking details, passwords, or an OTP by email, SMS, or phone. Anything sensitive happens inside the secure portal at portal.avermont.co.za — if a message claims to be from Avermont and asks for more than a sign-in, treat it as suspect and contact us directly.
