No one can predict the future, but you can help your clients plan for it.
Modern day retirement is changing. Instead of the traditional ‘once and done’ approach, flexible and tailored retirement plans can help meet the many different needs of those retiring today.
Giving the security of a regular guaranteed income and the peace of mind that clients don’t need to worry about investment performance and the impact this could have on their pension savings, a Fixed Term Annuity can provide clients with an alternative to flexi-access drawdown.
With our Fixed Term Retirement plan, clients who have chosen a guaranteed minimum payment period for the full term can take up to three withdrawals from their maturity value. This could help with an unexpected life event, for example emergency house repairs or medical expenses.
What is a fixed term annuity (FTA)?
Our two fixed term annuity (FTA) plans, Fixed Term Retirement Plan and Cash-Out Retirement Plan, can provide a guaranteed income for a chosen period of time offering some security, control and a flexible approach to retirement planning for you and your clients.
Fixed Term Annuities can be considered as an alternative to flexi-access drawdown.

Maturity value |
1RPI is the index of the average change in the prices of goods and services in the UK. Your client can choose to have the increase capped at 5%, referred to as the Limited Price Index (LPI). If they choose an income that increases over time, the income we’ll pay them to begin with will be lower than if they'd chosen a level income.
For our Fixed Term Retirement Plan
Once the term of your client's plan comes to an end and we've paid your client the maturity value, set at outset, your client will receive no more income from us.
The plan does not pay income for life. If your client uses the maturity value to provide them with further income, the value may not be enough to provide the same level of income that they were receiving during the plan term.
For our Cash-Out Retirement Plan
Once the term of your client's plan comes to an end, your client will receive no more income from us. There is no maturity value and there will be no other payments made. The plan does not pay income for life.
