Annuity is like an insurance which is part of your retirement plan. It is a simple agreement to pay you a state sum per year until you die. Depending on how much you have paid into your pension, and how old you are when you retire determines how much of your pension you recieve. In most cases this will be between 65 and 75 and it is compulsory to have an annuity by the time you reach 75. The only exception to this is the final salary pension scheme, but it is becoming increasingly difficult for companies to avoid.
At Pension Calculator, we have taken a look at all of the annuity plans across the market, and picked out the 5 best policies for you based on a purchase price of £10,000.
You are strongly advised to shop around for your annuity so that you do not miss out on better rates elsewhere. Your pension provider may not advertise this and will give you what they may think is the best deal.
