Frequently asked questions
In most cases, you can begin drawing your pension from age 60 — and from 50 in certain circumstances.
Usually, you can take up to 25% of your pension pot as a lump sum. A maximum of €200,000 of that is tax-free.
An Approved Retirement Fund lets you keep your money invested and draw down an income over time, rather than cashing it all in at once.
No. Most people now use an ARF instead, as it offers more flexibility. We’ll help you decide which is right for you.
Yes. With careful planning, your pension can be structured to pass to your spouse, children, or estate in a tax-efficient way.
We’ll help you model different scenarios, so you can retire with confidence knowing your income will meet your needs.
