Many of our valued clients ask us, “Should I combine my pensions?” The honest answer is: it depends. Fortunately, our experts can assess your individual circumstances and explain what’s best for you through clear, simple advice. The first step is to understand in detail what perks your current pensions provide, and what the effect of losing them would be.

Some pension funds offer benefits such as low charges or desirable flexibility. Others charge high fees for transferring away. In these cases, combining old pensions might not be advisable. If these factors don’t apply, pension consolidation is often the right option. The right consolidation strategy, created by experts like ours, can help you reach your retirement goals sooner.

At its simplest, combining old pensions turns several smaller pots into one larger, stronger fund. Consolidating your pensions also makes things easier to manage, since you’ll only have to keep track of one pot instead of many. If this sounds interesting but you’re unsure about how to consolidate pension pots, we can help.

  • Bringing several different pension pots together may mean you can manage your savings more easily and save money on fees, but it’s wise to seek financial advice before taking any action.

  • While you can usually consolidate pension pots, some providers charge an exit fee, so you – or your financial adviser – will need to consider this before making any decision.

  • There are many advantages to consolidating your pension pots, but you should speak to a financial adviser first to understand if you’ll lose access to any important perks.
