It’s easy to lose track of your workplace pension pots as you change jobs during your career. Make sure your money isn’t adding to the £19 billion held in lost pots.
You wouldn’t forget about money in a bank account, so why forget about money in your pension pot? It might even have grown to be worth more than you thought.
Once you know your total savings you’ll be in a better position to work out how much money you’re likely to have when you retire.
It often makes sense to combine some or all your pots to save on fees or to make managing your money simpler, especially as you get closer to your retirement age or when you start accessing your pots. However, please consider getting financial advice before transferring any pension.
Tracking down your pots sooner rather than later means you’ll have one less thing to worry about on your retirement to-do list.
