Information about your pension
Starting from 6 April 2003, all schemes that provide money purchase benefits (including stakeholder pensions and personal pensions) must provide members with a yearly illustration of the amount of pension they might receive when they retire. You can use these statements to check that enough money is going into your pension to give you the income you think you will need when you retire.
You should continue to review your pension arrangements regularly, to make sure they will give you enough pension to live on when you retire. The yearly statements the scheme provides will help you to decide the right amount to put in. You should remember to take account of any changes in your personal circumstances and in the law.
