Pensions & Retirement Planning

Pensions & Retirement Planning

Pensions can seem complicated, with different plans working in different ways and leaving you unsure if they meet your needs.

At my Omny, we cut through the complexity to help you understand your arrangements, optimise your set-up, and plan with clarity for the retirement you want.

We create tailored plans that grow with you, giving you confidence that your goals are achievable and the future you want is within reach.
Pensions – Did you know?

Did you know?
Too many people are underprepared for retirement:

  • £55bn is sitting in 2.8m lost pensions, with many savers in danger of losing track of their pensions.
  • 93% of savers remain in default funds, and 4.5m younger workers are “triple defaulters” who never change contributions, fund, or retirement age.
  • 7 in 10 people withdraw from pensions without advice, risking poor long-term outcomes.
  • 1m people face retirement poverty, and only 19% feel prepared for later life.
  • Women aged 65+ have average pension wealth of £69k, compared with £205k for men — a 35% gap.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Many Group Life policies offer additional benefits, such as:

  • Bereavement counselling
  • Mental health resources
  • Legal advice
  • Employee Assistance Programmes (EAPs)

These services not only provide immediate support in times of crisis but also contribute to your team’s ongoing wellbeing.

While both offer income replacement during illness or injury, Group Income Protection is an employer-arranged policy, often making it more cost-effective than individual plans. Premiums are typically tax-deductible, and employees benefit from streamlined access without needing to apply individually.
  • Financial Security: Immediate financial support during a critical health crisis.
  • Peace of Mind: Reduced stress and anxiety about financial burdens.
  • Employee Wellbeing: Demonstrates genuine care for your team’s health and financial security.
