Working with advisers

We choose to distribute our personal pension products and services through financial advisers. Simply because we believe that’s the right thing to do.

The world of pensions can be a complex place. And we think quality impartial advice is the best way of making sure you find the right products to suit your needs.

Advisers may charge for their services – though they should agree any fees with you upfront.
