Your Retirement Plans

Whatever you want from your retirement, planning for the retirement lifestyle you desire involves careful consideration of your financial needs, including estimating how much money you'll require and when you plan to retire. Adequate financial preparation done in time, could ensure that when the time comes, you can potentially enjoy your golden years in an improved financial position. 

Your specific requirements

Everyone’s financial position is unique. Whether you’re just starting out on your financial journey or are looking at how you might drawdown on your current pension, it’s important that you have all the facts available upon which you can make an informed decision that’s right for you.

There are a number of stages at which you can benefit from financial advice:

  1. First Pension/ Starting a Pension.
  2. Missing Pensions/ Tracing a Pension.
  3. Retirement Options/ Drawing down on a pension.
  4. Consolidating Pensions.
  5. Pension Performance Review/ Maximising your pension.
  6.  Director’s Tax Planning/ Efficiency.
  7. Pension sharing orders.

Understanding your existing pension

Financial planning can be complex, and understanding the finer details of your pension can prove to be challenging. Raising questions such as:


  • Where is it? 
  • Will I get what I need when I retire?
  • Is it performing as well as it could?
  • Can I get at it if I need to?
  • What are my options when I get to retirement?


We can arrange for you to speak with a regulated, qualified financial adviser, who can help you with all the information that you will need to make the best decisions for you, both now and for the future.

Maximising the performance of your pension

Many people pay money into a pension pot with little knowledge of how or what their money is doing. With the right advice, you can maximise your potential returns, and ensure that your money is working hard for you. Putting the right plans in place now can ensure a smooth transition into the retirement you want.


You should remember though that unit prices and the value of your pension fund can fall as well as rise and there is no guarantee you will receive a return of your original capital, especially in the early years or if you choose to take an income from it. Past performance is no guarantee of future returns.

Supporting your staff with pensions advice

Educating staff on pension options empowers them to make informed decisions about their financial future. It can foster employee loyalty, enhance overall financial wellness, and ensure a more secure retirement for employees, ultimately benefiting both the business and its workforce.
