Providing you have reached the age of 55, you can take the entire value of your pension pot as a cash sum to spend as you choose. The ability to do this can sound like a desirable option. But it is one that needs careful thought.
The complete independence of this option can be both part of its appeal and its risk. You need to ask yourself what your expectations are in retirement and if cashing in your money will provide you with enough income for your needs.
An investment-linked annuity is a type of lifetime annuity where your income can vary in line with changes in the value of your investments such as stocks and shares.
When you decide to take your pension you can reinvest your pot into one or more drawdown funds; designed to provide you with a regular income in retirement. The income you receive is totally dependent on the investment fund’s performance, therefore it may vary and isn’t guaranteed for life.
