Frequently Asked Questions
-
A pension is a long-term savings plan designed to provide you with an income in retirement, often supported by tax relief and employer contributions. Later life planning, on the other hand, includes a broader approach to securing your financial future in retirement, such as managing your savings, investments, and planning for healthcare or care needs in later years. We can help guide you through both, ensuring you are well-prepared for the future.
-
The amount you should save into your pension depends on various factors, including your desired retirement lifestyle, how much you have already saved, and when you plan to retire. We can work with you to assess your current situation and help you set a realistic savings goal to ensure you can maintain your standard of living when you retire.
-
When you reach retirement age, you have several options for accessing your pension, including taking a lump sum, purchasing an annuity, or using income drawdown to take regular withdrawals while keeping the pension invested. We can discuss the options that best align with your retirement goals and help you make an informed decision.
-
Planning for later life care involves considering potential future healthcare costs and how you will manage them. This could include long-term care insurance, setting aside additional savings, or planning how to draw income from your pension. We can help you assess your needs and create a strategy to ensure you're financially prepared for any future care needs.
-
The earlier you start planning for retirement, the better. Ideally, you should begin saving into your pension as soon as possible to take advantage of compound growth. However, it’s never too late to start, and we can help you create a strategy, whether you’re in your 20s or approaching retirement, to ensure you have the right plans in place for your later years.
