Pension Transfer - what are the benefits?
In todays world it is less common for people to begin and end their working lives with the same company. It is far more likely that you will move between companies during your career and that you need to consider what to do with the pension(s) you leave behind.
A pension transfer is one option but not suitable in all circumstances. It is therefore important that you obtain good advice when it comes to considering the option of transferring a pension. You need to consider such things as pension benefits, growth levels, nomination options, retirement ages and fees amongst others.
Pension transfer advisers are specially trained and authorised to look at these issues. We have access to a panel of independent pension experts who can help with your pension queries and will be happy to talk about your current circumstances.
What if you are already retired?
Just because you have retired it does not mean that your personal circumstances are not going to change. We will work with you to make sure your investments are always appropriate to your needs. In addition, we are able to provide advice and information on releasing equity from your home to provide a lump sum or regular income in retirement.
