In your 60s & 70s
However you choose to make the transition – stopping work in one go, or phasing it out over time – coming out of employment can be an uncertain, even anxious time, not least when it comes to wondering how your finances will hold up and how long you can afford to maintain the quality of life you are used to or have been looking forward to.
You are likely to have lots of questions; When should I start to draw down my pension? Should I be consolidating different pots? Should I keep earning in some capacity? What will I be able to afford in retirement? Do I have enough to tick some of those long-held dreams off the bucket list? Or help out younger generations of the family? What will I need to keep in reserve for later life and professional care when I start to slow down? We are here to provide answers and certainty so that you can gain peace of mind and enjoy your retirement on your terms.

I’ve recently been widowed. Can you help me understand my finances?

We can help reduce the burden of worry, take some of the weight from your shoulders and give you a clear understanding of what you have, what might change in light of the loss of your partner, and what you can do to regain financial confidence going forward. And of course, we will do it at the pace and at a time that’s right for you.
