Retirement Planning
For most people a pension scheme is the obvious route to saving for retirement. There are products to suit all circumstances, depending on whether you run your own business, want to top up your company scheme or you are in a job with no scheme available to you.
Financial advice on pensions is crucial both when planning a new pension as well as monitoring and reviewing an existing pension. With many different types available from numerous providers, our Independent Planners can help find a solution matched perfectly to your needs.
Our retirement planning and pension review service is specifically designed to help you take charge of your own retirement plans.
To keep you on track for retirement we meet with you regularly to review your plans and discuss how your fund is performing as well as your personal circumstances, goals and attitude towards investing.
02
Income in Retirement
An Annuity is a guaranteed fixed income which you buy with a lump sum; its term may be to a fixed date, when you die or when your spouse or another named person dies.
When you come to retirement, it might be tempting to choose the first fixed rate, level annuity quote you receive but with life expectancy increasing, your annuity might have to pay out for considerably longer and your needs may change over time therefore it is sensible to shop around.
With so many options available, choosing the right solution for you can be a complex decision. Our Financial Planners are available to discuss these options with you in more detail and help you understand what’s best for your situation.
03
Investments
Building your investment portfolio is much more than choosing products, it takes into account tax saving opportunities, your attitude toward risk and reward as well as balancing the need for growth, income or both.
Whether it’s because you’ve had a windfall or built up a tidy nest egg by saving on a regular basis, your money should be invested wisely so that its spending power is protected for the future. Leaving large amounts of money in banks or building societies often reduces the spending power of your money due to inflation, and may not be the answer long term.
Whether you’re a first time saver or investor, or you just need an impartial view of your existing arrangements, our Financial Planners can assess how your money should be managed.
