Retirement Planning is much too important to be left to chance
Worrying statistics have come to light in a recent survey amongst those with more than £250,000 saved for retirement. Only 36% used a professional financial adviser to create a retirement plan for their future.
Without a well-thought out plan, many people heading into their later years could find their finances coming under increasing pressure. With life expectancy continuing to rise and the cost of care increasing year on year, it’s important to ensure there will be sufficient income available to provide a financially-secure retirement for years to come.
Research from the Financial Conduct Authority shows that many pensioners simply opt for the annuity offered to them by their provider, without realising that they are within their rights to shop around amongst other companies and compare deals. Whilst staying with your existing provider might well represent a reasonable deal for your financial circumstances, taking advice could reveal alternative options better suited to your needs; and the potential for an increased income.
Retirement planning is much too important to be left to chance. Taking professional advice is an important step in helping to ensure you enjoy a comfortable retirement.
