Defined Benefit Pension Advice

Would you benefit from a pension transfer?
If you are considering a Defined Benefit pension transfer (also known as a DB Pension Transfer, final salary pension transfer and Occupational Pension transfer) we can help you understand the advantages and disadvantages

Whether a pension transfer is suitable or not will depend on your individual circumstances and objectives.
Since the introduction of pension freedoms there are more flexible options available for income and substantially improved death benefits for some – however you could be giving up a guaranteed index-linked pension if you do transfer. Capital at risk, investments can go down as well as up.

Our pension transfer specialists provide advice on Defined Benefit pension transfers.
They offer a full professional appraisal so you can make an informed choice.

Transferring out of a Defined Benefit pension scheme is unlikely to be in the best interests of most people.

Call us on 0141 352 7800 for no-cost guidance over the telephone or to arrange an initial meeting at our expense*
