I want to plan for retirement


Creating a comfortable, secure retirement takes care and forethought. We can help build a pension plan unique to you.

Understanding your needs

Determining the level of income you’ll need is the key to a long and happy retirement. Pensions are one way of generating wealth for later years. Personal investments, property and other savings and assets can be an important part of your financial preparations too.

We can help you choose between buying an annuity or an approved retirement fund, taking a taxed lump sum or making regular withdrawals while continuing to invest.

How much will I need

Using the allowances set by the government, pensions provide a highly tax-efficient means of providing for your future. Pension regulations have changed rapidly in recent years, and understanding the tax rates and advantages of saving into a formal pension has never been more important. We can help you to make the most of available tax incentives and avoid the potential penalties if you were to exceed your allowances or fund thresholds.

Making the most of your pension allowance

Pensions can be combined with other savings vehicles and assets like property, to provide the foundations for your life after work.  We will work with you to find what works best for your personal circumstances, commitments and retirement ambitions.
