Why preparing for retirement has never been more crucial
A new study reveals how people in the UK manage their pensions, highlighting notable differences based on gender, income and relationship status.

When leaving a job, how to stay updated on your retirement savings
Changing jobs often signals the start of an exciting new chapter, bringing fresh opportunities, new challenges and often a higher salary. However, amidst all this change, it’s easy to overlook certain details, such as your old pension, especially since new employers usually auto-enrol you into a new pension scheme.
An annuity converts pension savings into a regular income, providing financial stability in retirement. Annuities deliver guaranteed income, ensuring that retirees do not outlive their savings. Unlike drawdown pensions, which depend on market performance, annuities offer peace of mind through predictable payments.
A new report reveals that millions rely on guesswork when planning for retirement

The research reveals that 1 in 6 people (16%) rely on gut instinct to determine how much they will need for a financially secure retirement. Alarmingly, nearly two in five (39%) have not calculated their retirement needs at all.
