Support and guidance

Understanding the choices you have will help you get the most from your pension savings

You can buy a regular income with your pension savings. This is an “annuity”.

You can use your pension savings to secure an income by buying an annuity.

If this option is for you then make sure you shop around to get the best rate as different providers will give you different quotes based on your age, health and amount of savings.

You can take your savings a bit at a time. This is called “drawdown”.

You can leave your pension savings invested while taking what you need when you need it.

This might mean you take cash regularly giving yourself an income or just when you need a bit extra. The key benefit of this option is having flexibility to make decisions as you go and having access to your savings when it suits you.

Take a look at the benefits of drawdown

You could take all of your savings out of your pension at once.

You can choose to take all your pension savings at once. Some people do this to put their pension savings into a different type of investment or to repay debts.

Whatever the reason, this option needs careful consideration as you can’t normally change your mind later on.

You can choose to leave your savings invested.

When you reach retirement age you may find you don’t need an income from your pension just yet.  Perhaps you have other sources of income or you’ve decided to continue working.

Whatever the reason, if you don’t need to start using your pension then you could leave it invested.

You can mix and match these options.

When deciding how to use your pension savings you won’t have to choose just one option and can mix and match to get the best combination for you.

It’s possible to take cash and income from your savings at different times to fit in with what you need.

You can even keep saving into a pension and will get tax relief until you reach 75.

The option or combination of options that’s best for you depends a number of things such as your age, your plans for retirement and how much you have saved.
