Your retirement options
When you get to retirement age, you’ll be faced with plenty of choices. Should you take up golf or gardening? Would you prefer a luxury cruise or those long-planned home renovations? But you’ll also have choices to make about how you use your pension money.
Depending on your personal circumstances, we have two options which you can choose from:
Approved Retirement Fund
Approved Retirement Funds keep your pension savings invested after you have retired while giving you the freedom to withdraw money as and when you need it.
Annuities
An annuity provides a regular income for the rest of your life. You can buy an annuity with the money from your pension fund.
