At Pension Transfer Specialists, we provide expert financial guidance to individuals across the UK looking to transfer their pensions safely and efficiently.

Whether you want to consolidate multiple pensions, transfer a final salary scheme, or move your pension overseas, our team ensures a secure, FCA-compliant process that protects your retirement savings while maximising investment opportunities.

What Is The Pension Transfer Process?

A pension transfer specialist begins the process with a pension assessment & suitability check, where specialists review existing pension schemes and evaluate the benefits of transferring. Next, they compare pension providers, ensuring clients access the best investment opportunities and lowest fees.

A compliance & regulatory review follows, where FCA approval is verified, particularly for defined benefit transfers. The transfer request is then submitted, with all necessary documents filed with the new provider.

Once the funds are transferred, they are allocated into selected investments, ensuring strong performance. Finally, specialists provide ongoing pension management & review, monitoring the pension’s growth and making necessary adjustments over time.

How Much Do Pension Transfer Specialists Charge?

A pension transfer specialist for defined contribution transfers costs £500 to £3,000, depending on the provider. Defined benefit pension transfers, which require FCA-mandated financial advice, are more expensive, with fees ranging from £3,000 to £10,000 or more.

Additional costs may include exit fees, provider transfer charges, and tax implications, particularly for international pension transfers (QROPS). Some advisors offer fixed fees, while others charge a percentage of the pension value, making it important to compare costs before proceeding.

What Types Of Pension Transfers Do Pension Transfer Specialists Handle?

Pension transfer specialists handle defined contribution transfers, defined benefit transfers, pension consolidation, international pension transfers (QROPS), and self-invested personal pension (SIPP) transfers.

These options provide the following features:

• Defined contribution to defined contribution transfers – Moving pensions between providers to reduce fees, improve investment options, or consolidate multiple pensions.
• Defined benefit (final salary) to defined contribution transfers – A complex transfer that involves losing guaranteed lifetime income and requires careful consideration.
• Pension consolidation – Merging multiple pension pots into a single, more manageable scheme.
• International pension transfers (QROPS – qualifying recognised overseas pension schemes) – Helping expatriates transfer UK pensions overseas while avoiding tax penalties.
• Self-invested personal pension (SIPP) transfers – Providing individuals with greater control over their investments, allowing them to choose where and how their pension funds are allocated.

What Are The Benefits Of Using A Pension Transfer Specialist?

Using a pension transfer specialist provides expert financial advice, ensuring compliance with FCA regulations while helping clients maximise pension value. Secure & risk-assessed transfers prevent financial losses due to hidden fees, tax penalties, or poor investment choices.

Pension specialists offer personalised solutions, tailoring pension options to suit individual retirement goals. They also help clients lower fees and access better investment options, which can significantly improve long-term pension growth.

Additionally, tax-efficient pension strategies help individuals minimise tax liabilities and maximise retirement savings.

How Long Does A Pension Transfer Take?

A pension transfer specialist for defined contribution pension transfers takes 2 to 6 weeks, as they involve fewer regulatory requirements. Defined benefit pension transfers take longer, typically 3 to 6 months, due to FCA-mandated financial advice and compliance reviews.

Overseas pension transfers (QROPS) can take several months, depending on the destination country’s tax and regulatory requirements. Transfer delays can result from provider processing times, legal checks, and pension complexity, but some specialists offer fast-track transfer services for urgent cases.
