COMPARE ANNUITY TABLES Upon reaching retirement, annuity policies can guarantee you receive a fixed monthly sum for the rest of your life. Most people will purchase an annuity between the ages of 65 and 75, depending on when they retire and how much they have saved in their pension fund.
It is compulsory to buy an annuity by the time you reach the age of 75, unless you are part of a final salary pension scheme – though as these are becoming increasingly hard for companies to avoid, final salary schemes are becoming less and less common. We at PensionCalculator.org have taken a look at all the annuity plans available on the market, and picked our top 5 best policies based on a purchase price of £10,000.
It is important to realise that you do not necessarily have to take the annuity plan offered to you by your pension provider, and may be able to get a far better deal by shopping around

Recently annuity rates have dropped due to higher average life expectancies, and now typically offer a return of around 8%, though this is dependent on each individual’s circumstances.
