Previous Pension Advice

The question is, what option did you choose?

Have you got a pension from an old job?

When you leave previous employment, it is important to understand what happened to your pension and whether the option you chose was the best one available.

There are pros and cons to each option but it is important to fully understand these options in detail to make an informed decision.

Early access options and the tax implications on both your pension on retirement and on death should all be considered from all options before any decision is made.

If you are unsure what options you chose when you left your previous employment or didn’t make a decision for whatever reason, your pension is probably still in your ex-employer’s company pension scheme.

If you would like clarification or more information on the options still available to you (even if you have already transferred your pension), you can always book a free call with one of our highly experienced and qualified pension specialists and they would be happy to answer any of your queries.

Types of pensions and the options available

Below is a more detailed analysis of Occupation/company pensions and the options available to you in relation to any previous pensions.

In general, there are two specific types of Occupational/company pensions:

  1. Defined Benefit Pensions
  2. Defined Contribution Pensions

On occasions, some pensions are a part Defined Benefit and part Defined Contribution (hybrid pension).

It is very important to understand what type of pension you have as the options differ slightly for each type.

MMA team made my mortgage application to approval easy and possible. They are efficient and swift with responses. The level of professionalism is second to none and special thanks to Cris for her support. At some point I was the one delaying the process yet you were very patient with me, guide me through every process and arrange meetings for clarity. Surely this is the best mortgage adviser I have encountered and I strongly recommend them cause they don’t disappoint. Thanks team Elizabeth

Great company! My advisors, Jack and Maricris, were very attentive, very professional. No advanced fees charged and as advertised, if you don’t close a deal, if you don’t draw down, there’s no charge, which unfortunately was my case, so after being helped through the process, they didn’t charge me anything.
