The purpose of this calculator is to give you a general indication of your fund value at an illustrated retirement age (please read the assumptions used) based on your current age and the transfer amount.

This calculator does not constitute personal advice. You are advised to seek independent financial advice.

The figures are a guide only; they are not guaranteed. Your final pension fund, and the income available from it, will depend upon a range of factors. These include, but are not limited to, contributions you make in future, the growth of your fund, charges, inflation, annuity rates and options, and your retirement age.

The value of investments can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you invest.

The calculator does not take account of any tax charges which may apply to contributions into or income from a pension or any tax applicable if your fund exceeds the lifetime allowance at the time of retirement.

This calculator is not appropriate for calculating potential income from a defined benefits scheme.

This calculator does not take into account any benefits from a state pension.

For the purposes of this illustration, the FCA require us to provide you with an indication of your projected pension fund value you may get at your illustrated retirement age at 65. The illustrative value is based on prescribed Mid investment growth rate of 5%, after allowing for all fees and charges.

The projection assumes that you do not draw any income or one-off lump sums from the SIPP. It also assumes the value of your pension fund is within the standard Lifetime Allowance and no LTA tax charge applies.

In addition, we are required to reduce the projected figures to account for inflation. Inflation is the rise in costs of goods and services over time.

This illustration incorporates our fees as per our fee schedule. Fixed monetary fees are assumed to increase each year in line with inflation.

Ongoing Charges Figure (OCF): This illustration incorporates an assumed Ongoing Charges Figure (OCF) 1.00% for the purposes of generating this illustration.

The figures are for illustration purposes only and are not guaranteed. The value of the SIPP depends on how your investments perform after charges and fees.
