I have used other advisers in the past & Acuity’s team was by far the best. They were professional, prompt and kept me informed throughout the advisory process. I am very happy to recommend Acuity to others who are contemplating accessing their pensions.

– Andrew Moorfield

I was advised by Acuity in transferring my work pension… I believe I was given the best advice, and guidance to any questions I may have had at the time. I am now into my second year of a planned early retirement and enjoying every minute. Everything I have achieved so far, and everything I am planning for the future, is down to the professional advice and the manner in which it was given by Acuity.

– Stuart Grant

Defined Benefit Pension Specialist

Our company offers a Defined Benefit (DB) Pension Service, which involves an assessment of your defined benefit pension. We compare a pension income for life with an alternative lump sum payment offered by the pension scheme in exchange for relinquishing your right to a guaranteed income. Please note that only a Pension Specialist can conduct this review, and in most cases, surrendering a guaranteed income for life is not recommended.

A pension is a long-term investment not normally accessible until age 55 (57 from April 2028 unless the plan has a protected pension age). The value of your investments (and any income from them) can down as well as up which would have an impact on the level of pension benefits available.  Your pension income could also be affected by the interest rates at the time you take your benefits.The tax implications of pension withdrawals will be based on your individual circumstances, tax legislation and regulation which are subject to change. You should seek advice to understand your options at retirement.
