Pension Consolidation

    Simpson Wood is a specialist Financial Planning firm offering expertise in pension consolidation and retirement planning. This process, crucial for individuals with multiple pension pots, involves combining pensions into a single plan, to reduce administration costs and increase the simplicity of their pensions.

    What is Pension Consolidation?

    Pension consolidation is a financial strategy that involves combining multiple pension pots into a single, more manageable pension plan. This process, often termed as consolidating pensions, simplifies the management of retirement savings by providing a clearer overview of total assets. This in turn makes it easier for our clients to simplify their retirement strategy, so that in retirement they do not have to think about where their income is coming from.
