Why transfer your other pensions into the Best SIPP?
Consolidating your pension investments in the Best SIPP will make them easier to manage and review. Plus, with fewer pension providers you could save money in fees and will have less paperwork to deal with. Please see Further Details below for information regarding transferring pensions. **
If your current pension providers charge you exit fees when you transfer, we will pay up to £500 to cover the costs (see our terms and conditions). Our team of specialists will then contact your current providers to arrange the transfers, and everything could be finished in as little as 15 days (or up to 12 weeks with some providers).
Thinking of opening a Best SIPP for a child?

A Child’s SIPP may not seem like an obvious choice, but even small contributions can make a huge difference to their retirement finances over the long term. You can find out more about pensions for children or download our Child SIPP application form.

**Before you consider transferring a pension, it is important to ask yourself: Will I lose any valuable benefits or features from my existing pension plan? Will I incur any penalties on my existing pension if I transfer? Is it an occupational final salary pension scheme? (in which case it is very unlikely to be advisable to transfer) Have I considered the charges on my current plan? (a new arrangement may be more expensive – especially if you have a stakeholder pension).
