Those with Defined Benefit (DB) pensions could be sleepwalking into making the wrong decisions at retirement, either from falling victim to scams to cash in DB pensions or simply staying in a scheme when a transfer may have been better.
The numbers looking to transfer out of DB to access their benefit flexibly have soared since Freedom & Choice. Record high transfer values have made DB transfers even more attractive - both to members of final salary schemes, but also to scammers. Whether an individual decides to stay or leave their DB scheme, there are huge risks that members could make poor decisions with a life-changing and life-long impact.
