Planning Your Retirement
When you retire, depending on your type of pension, you have the option of taking up to 25% as tax-free cash from your pension savings. You then have the choice of taking the rest of your savings as income or as a lump sum, subject to marginal tax rates.
Working with a carefully selected panel of providers, through St. James’s Place we offer the following range of options on retirement:
Self-Invested Pension Plans (SIPPs)
Trustee Schemes
Retirement Plans
Drawdown Plans
Annuities
Leave your pension pot to someone when you die – there’ll be tax implications for doing this.

Your St. James’s Place Partner at Wellesley Wealth Advisory can guide you through all the options to help you make the right decision regards your annuity purchase, whether you can draw your whole fund as a cash lump sum, or whether a pension drawdown would be more suitable.
