Give your pension a boost
If you only pay the minimum into your pension, it may not be enough to enjoy a comfortable retirement. Topping up your pension when you can afford it, could help you achieve more when you retire.
You can top up your existing pension contribution by paying in a lump sum or increasing your regular contributions.
Bring all your pensions together
If you’ve moved from job to job throughout your career, it’s possible you’ve got more than one pension plan. You might be able to combine some, or all of your pensions in one place. This could make it easier to manage and might save you money in fees.
Combining pensions isn’t right for everyone. You need to be careful that you don’t lose any guarantees or features, and you should also compare the charges and funds.
Pensions are a long-term investment. The retirement benefits you receive from your pension plan will depend on a number of factors including the value of your plan when you decide to take your benefits which isn’t guaranteed and can go down as well as up. The value of your plan could fall below the amount(s) paid in.
