Getting the best rate of income

As you approach retirement your current pension provider will provide you with an annuity quotation. In most cases, this quotation will not be competitive compared to what is available with leading annuity providers and will not take into consideration any enhancement or impaired annuities that may be on offer to you.

Once you purchase an annuity you cannot change it, therefore it is imperative that you seek independent financial advice to maximise your retirement income.

The Annuity Bureau is independent meaning we can approach all the companies on the market for the best annuity deal available to you. This could increase your income by 22% on conventional annuities.

As an example, Mr H contacted us to search for the best annuity rate on offer to him. His current pension provider offered a yearly income of £1,142.04 but by contacting us we were able to increase his income to £1,463.64 per annum an increase of £321.60, every year, for the rest of his life.

If you know what you want, our online supermarket will do the research for you. Our online supermarket is simple, free to quote and you are under no obligation to proceed. Because this is online, research is limited to a panel of providers who are able to offer online quotations. As such, we cannot guarantee that the rates identified are the most competitive available from the entire open market.
