Can I afford to retire?

As retirement age approaches, this is the burning question on everyone's mind. By delving into your unique goals, we can tailor a retirement plan that perfectly matches your needs.

Enjoy your retirement your way

The desire to retire and being able to afford to retire are two distinct realities. While you look forward to the freedom and relaxation that retirement promises, the ability to afford it hinges on careful financial planning.

It’s also becoming less common for people to abruptly halt work altogether. Instead, many opt to reduce their hours or transition to less demanding roles. This gradual shift eases the transition into retirement and ensures ongoing financial stability.

We recognise that everyone’s journey to retirement is unique. We take the time to understand your goals, plans, and desired lifestyle before determining when retirement is feasible for you.

Comprehensive financial plan

We will look at the bigger picture and review all your finances, alongside your pensions and investments, to determine if and when you can retire and ensure you have enough income to last your retirement.

A long-term relationship

A pension is a long-term investment not normally accessible until 55 (57 from April 2028). Your capital is at risk. The fund value may fluctuate and can go down, which would have an impact on the level of pension benefits available.
