Upon divorce, you may be granted a pension through a pension sharing order. A pension sharing order instructs the pension provider to transfer a percentage of the fund to whichever one of you is to benefit from the order.

In some cases, you will be able to choose whether to retain the pension with the existing provider or transfer it to a new pension arrangement, but in some scenarios you may not be given both options.

When receiving a pension or a portion of a pension through a pension sharing order, it can be difficult to know what to do with the pot of funds. We can help you to understand where best to hold and invest the funds, based on your needs and objectives.
