Transferring your pension is a huge decision and it may not be the best outcome for you and your family.

For cost efficiency our fees are paid to us following the pension transfer from your pension scheme to the new provider.  It avoids clients paying from previously taxed earned income.

Give your pension plans and retirement some thought

You will not lose anything by requesting a personal report on your retirement options including the possibilities of a pension transfer.  The advice will be accurate and in your best interests.  If it's not right we will tell you and you will have lost nothing.

Since April 2015 and the introduction of George Osborne's pension freedoms, many things will have changed and without doubt your personal circumstances will also be evolving.  In the past staying with your Final Salary (Defined Benefits/DB) pension scheme was almost always the best option.  However, other factors may now mean that a transfer away from your DB scheme may be worthy of consideration.

Some of the reasons for considering a transfer may be –

• The changes to the pension rules themselves
• Poor health
• No spouse or partner
• Large deficits (black holes) in some major company pension schemes
• The ability to benefit from the 25% tax free cash from age 55
• The possibility to access income flexibly and to vary the amount
• The possibility to pass on any leftover pension monies to future generations as pension savings or capital (taxed)
• Transfer values (CETV) are presently high due to low interest rates and gilt yields
• Many large companies are happy to see members leave their DB Pension Scheme as this reduces their long term risks.

What are my options?

Leave everything unchanged
If you want an income that is guaranteed for life your plan may well provide this.  It may well be, if we were to conduct a review of your pension, we would advise you to stay in the plan but this is not always the case.  Personal objectives and plans which become clear during our meeting may well be possible within the new freedoms and flexible options.

Consider your options – based on a thorough review
Now is an appropriate time to consider your options.  This will not affect your present benefits from your existing plan in any way but you will be informed and in control of any opportunities that the radical new pension freedoms offer you.

We would be very pleased to review your pension plans and formalise an informative report for your considered thoughts.  This report will clearly show all options available to you including any failings or good points of your existing plan, finalising with options available to you for ongoing investment of your pension.  These options will be presented to you with your report along with the research of the market to ensure the best possible investment options will be available to you.
