Notes

This table shows the leading Personal Pension Annuity rates and providers based on:

Payments being made monthly in arrears (but they are shown as the gross annual income amount)
No guarantee period applying.
A partner's pension of 50% on joint life illustrations.
A purchase price of £100 000.

Points to note

The tables do not include figures for companies providing enhanced rates for smokers or those in ill health, or companies that provide annuities only for a specific group of retirees. The lower - paying providers are not shown.

A company appearing top for one set of benefits or age may be poor for a different set of benefits or a different age. It is therefore imperative to shop around for an annuity based on your own circumstances. We do all the research for our clients. Please contact us for further information.
