Pension Fund
Ratings | 2009

The Production Environment
Retirement income streams – primarily allocated pensions – have been one of the financial services success stories of recent years. Now, with the Government’s landmark decision to remove personal pensions from the income tax system from 1 July (for people over 60), these products are set to enjoy a fresh surge of popularity.

Against this background, it is essential that service providers, individuals and advisers have access to independent research on pension products that allows them to compare funds on a strictly ‘apples with apples’ basis.

Chant West’s Pension research helps individuals (and their advisers) compare pension funds.
