Retiring soon – Always shop around for your Annuity.
An annuity is the financial product that you purchase with your pension money at retirement. The annuity pays you a guaranteed income for the rest of your life. You can buy additional benefits for your spouse and have other features added to the annuity when you first take it out.
Your current pension provider will offer you an annuity when you reach your stated retirement age, but BEWARE; the offer from your existing pension provider is invariably a poor one.
YOU MUST, shop around for the best annuity rate you can find in the open market. By doing so you will increase the amount of guaranteed income you will have in retirement, a VETY important factor.
Also, it is vitally IMPORTANT, that you tell the annuity provider about your medical background . If you suffer from high cholesterol, diabetes, smoke, take medication, have suffered previous illnesses or have a current medical diagnosis of a complaint (however irrelevant they seem to you), any of them may provide you with an Enhanced Annuity. This means the provider will pay you MORE income as you have a past or current health issue.
As can be seen it is vital to get the best advice when you purchase an annuity. Speak to the experts at Thompson Financial Consulting Ltd and we’ll ensure you get more money in your pocket.
