Pensions – Post Retirement – Ready to Retire

The post retirement phase of pension planning should be focussed on how you use your savings pot to compliment your income in retirement. We encourage you to focus on the 4 pillars of retirement income as follows:

  • State pension (typically from ages 67 or 68)
  • Private Pension savings
  • Private assets and Income, e.g. rental income, dividend income, other employment
  • Part time employment or Consultancy work
