April 2027 Tax changes to Personnel Pension's regarding IHT
Background - I am 70 years old - receive both a full state pension and a company pension.
A third pension with Royal London has been left to grow and stands at a current fund value of £227,000 Since the government are changing how the pension will be taxed in April 2027, in particular, regarding IHT I wanted to investigate the options of an Annuity.
Your people gave extremely helpful advise and in the end it was clear the best option would be to leave the pension with Royal London but set things in motion to take the 25% Tax free cash either in full or a partial withdrawals

Prompt Service …
After expressing an interest to learn more about annuities, I was contacted promptly to gather more information and context.
Once the initial fact find was completed, an initial meeting was scheduled with a qualified and independent financial advisor to discuss my needs and hopefully make recommendations. The initial consultation is free of charge and will provide useful information.
