Pension Consolidation

Managing multiple pension schemes can be complex and time-consuming, especially for expatriates with pension funds scattered across different providers.

Our pension consolidation service streamlines your retirement savings into a single, cohesive plan that aligns with your financial goals, time horizon, and risk tolerance.

Why Consolidate Your Pension?

Consolidating your pension funds into one managed portfolio offers several benefits:

Simplified management: Reduce the administrative hassle of dealing with multiple pension schemes.
Improved visibility: Track your retirement savings in one place, making it easier to monitor growth.
Personalised investment strategy: Tailor your pension to your specific risk profile and financial objectives.
Fee reduction: Consolidating into a single scheme often leads to lower overall fees, enhancing long-term returns.
Increased control: Gain more flexibility over how your funds are managed and withdrawn in the future.

Our Pension Consolidation Process

We handle the entire pension consolidation process from start to finish, ensuring you get a streamlined and effective plan for your retirement. Here’s how we approach it:

1. Initial Consultation

We begin with a detailed consultation to understand your financial situation, current pension arrangements, and retirement goals. This step allows us to assess whether consolidating your pensions is beneficial and, if so, to tailor our approach accordingly.

2. Pension Scheme Analysis

Our team conducts an in-depth analysis of your existing pension schemes, including:

Current valuations
Investment strategies and performance
Fee structures
Potential forfeiture of benefits like guaranteed annuities or higher tax-free cash entitlements

We ensure no valuable benefits are lost during the consolidation process.

3. Risk Assessment

Understanding your risk tolerance is key. We conduct a risk profiling assessment to determine your comfort level with investment risks and then create a pension plan that reflects your attitude towards risk. For example, if your current pensions are too conservative or too aggressive, we adjust your portfolio accordingly.

4. Consolidation Feasibility

Before proceeding, we carry out a consolidation feasibility study. This ensures that moving your pensions into one plan won’t result in any loss of valuable benefits. Our goal is to improve your pension arrangement without compromising key features.

5. Tailored Investment Strategy

Once consolidation is deemed viable, we design a bespoke investment portfolio that aligns with your retirement goals and risk profile. We take into account your:

Expatriate status and financial plans
Retirement time horizon
Risk tolerance and growth expectations

6. Implementation

We manage the entire transfer process with your pension providers, ensuring the smooth transition of funds. Our team handles all paperwork and liaises with the necessary administrators, giving you peace of mind.

7. Ongoing Monitoring and Adjustments

After consolidation, we continue to monitor your pension performance and adjust your portfolio as needed to keep you on track for retirement. You will receive regular updates and have access to ongoing expert advice.
