Existing Prudential Pension customer?

We have a wide range of retirement income options with many of our pension customers choosing to stay with us when they retire.

However, we know how important it is to get the right income for you, so you are free to shop around and move your pension to any provider, in order to get the retirement income you need. This is known as the 'Open Market Option'.

If you'd like to see how much income your pension could provide, you can get a free personalised annuity quote.

You'll receive key information from us six months and six weeks before your nominated retirement date - including a quotation, to help you understand your options and give you the confidence to make a decision.

Our pensions offer flexibility - you can top up by increasing your regular contributions or making a one-off payment.

When you're ready to buy your annuity, it's a good idea to contact us to check that the details we hold about you are still accurate.

If you'd like to continue working when you reach your nominated retirement age, you have the option to buy your annuity, or defer your purchase if you don't require this income immediately.

Our annuities consultants can discuss your different options and help you through every step of the process when you're ready.

We are the number one provider of annuities in the UK.* Over one million people rely on us to pay their pension every year and in 2009 more than 100,000 people chose to buy their annuity with us.
