Your retirement, reimagined.

Work to play

Pensions. Your post-work lifestyle. New priorities. It’s a lot to consider.

Retirement financial advice

Retirement may still be a long way off. Or a near new future. We can show you the financial impact of savings changes pre-retirement, create a sustainable income at retirement, and plan for life goals you want to achieve post-retirement.

Uncertainty about how to approach retirement is normal. Our financial planners’ job is to bring clarity.

We can advise you about the best course of action for your circumstances and life goals before, during and after retirement.

This may include showing you how putting more in your pension in the 10 or so years before you retire can significantly boost your post-work income. We can also advise on the pros and cons of pension transfers and combining forgotten pensions.

Using expert financial modelling, we’ll show you how your savings and investments can create a sustainable retirement income.

Our planners can weigh up options like staying invested, buying an annuity for a guaranteed income, or a mix of both.

You’ve worked all your life. Thinking about what comes after can be hard.

We can help break down your decisions into more manageable chunks, by looking at all your assets, and showing you what is possible with the retirement savings you have.

Whatever your goals, our planners can provide certainty with a robust but flexible financial plan. Then using expert financial modelling we’ll show you how to generate a sustainable income from your pensions, investments and other financial assets, and factor in your state pension too.

Confused about your retirement options? Let us turn your hard work into a sustainable income for the next chapter.

Retirement planning

Pre-retirement

Do you want a partial, phased or full retirement? Conversations with our financial planners can help your later life take shape. We can also advise on the pros and cons of pension and investment consolidation.

At retirement

Investment income. Buying a guaranteed income for life. State pension. ISAs. You may have many sources to pay for your lifestyle post-work. We’ll show you how much income you’ll need and how best to achieve it.

Post-retirement

From what to do with a tax-free pension lump sum to supporting younger generations and passing on your wealth, we can navigate you through the most tax-efficient route during retirement and beyond into later life.
