Taking pension money early isn’t right for everyone because it could leave you with less to live on in retirement. That’s why it makes sense to talk with an independent and regulated adviser, such as Portafina, first.

What you’ll get with Portafina on your side

Taking tax-free cash is a big decision, especially if you have a pension with valuable guaranteed benefits. It’s about weighing up the positive impact taking pension money early could have on your life right now with the potential loss of retirement income in the future.
We consider many different factors for our clients: from their current finances and objectives, to their plans for retirement and beyond. And we will forensically analyse each pension scheme to make sure each client is clear on all the pros and cons of making a change to their pension pot before any final decision has to be made.
