Lifestyling changes a pension’s investment mix automatically as its selected retirement date approaches. The planned route through those changes is often called a glidepath.
Profiles can prepare for cash withdrawals, an annuity or drawdown. The right questions are what your profile targets and whether that still fits your plans. Automatic changes do not remove investment risk or guarantee an outcome.

Bringing pension pots together can make them easier to manage, but keeping separate pensions may be appropriate. We review costs, investments, guarantees and other valuable benefits before recommending whether to keep a pot or move it.
A transfer is not automatically the right choice. Read MoneyHelper’s guide to combining pensions.

A lifestyle strategy may use the retirement date recorded on your account to time investment changes. If you plan to retire later, gradually or using a different income option, those changes may no longer reflect your intentions.
Check the date and what your fund is designed to do before changing either. Your scheme can explain its rules. Personal advice considers the whole plan rather than the date alone.

If you have not chosen investments, your contributions may be in your scheme’s default arrangement. Your statement or member portal should identify the fund or lifestyle profile.
Check its factsheet, investment mix, charges, selected retirement date and intended retirement outcome. A default can be a useful starting point, but it is not a personal financial plan. Before changing funds, consider your circumstances and any effect on your workplace benefits.

Yes. We can include expected defined benefit pension income in your wider financial plan and cashflow forecasts. It sits alongside invested pension pots, State Pension, savings and the spending you want retirement to support.
This can help you see the whole income picture. We do not provide advice on transferring defined benefit pensions. Your scheme administrator can explain your entitlement and the options available under its rules.

Investment returns will not follow a smooth path. We consider the risk you are comfortable taking, your capacity to absorb losses and how withdrawals could affect your invested pension over time.
Cashflow forecasts can explore less favourable outcomes and changes in spending. They cannot remove investment risk or guarantee how long your money will last. Investments can fall in value and you may get back less than you invest.
This is general information, not personal financial advice.
Investment pathways are ready made investment options for people entering drawdown without personal investment advice. They relate to how you expect to use the remaining pot over the next five years.
The broad choices cover leaving the money invested, buying an annuity, taking a continuing income or withdrawing the whole pot. They are different from the lifestyle strategy used while saving. They do not remove investment risk or replace a personal plan.
