06 October 2023

When you start to access your pension, how will you take an income? One of your options may be to withdraw a flexible income that suits your needs through flexi-access drawdown.

As a result, there are some factors you may want to think about when managing pension withdrawals if you’re using flexi-access drawdown. This guide covers seven important considerations, including:

• How long does your pension need to provide an income?
• How could inflation affect your income needs?
• What tax could your pension withdrawals be liable for?
