With Profits Pension Annuity

The options you choose when you take out your With Profits Pension Annuity will affect the amount of pension income you'll get. Generally, the more options you add, the lower your income in retirement will be.

You can get a personal illustration so that you can see the difference the various options would make to your pension income.

What are the options?

• Dependant's pension. You can choose a dependant to continue to receive an income after you die and also choose whether this is paid at the same level as your pension income or lower.
• Guaranteed period. You can choose to add a guarantee for up to 10 years. If you die during this period, your income will continue to be paid to your estate until the end of the guaranteed period.
• Payment options. Your income can be paid monthly or yearly, either:
  • In advance. This means that payment of your pension income will be from the start date.
  • Or in arrears. This means that payment will be one month or year after the start date, depending on your chosen payment frequency.
