Pension & Retirement
What You Need To Know
We are now living longer, than other generations and this will continue to increase. For some people the State pension is sufficient to provide a basic level of income, but most people will want to supplement what they have with some form of pension scheme.
A pension is simply a long-term savings plan, with tax relief on the money you save. The amount of tax relief you can get depends on your age and the amount you earn.
The type of plan you need will depend on your work situation.
