FAQ
Is the pension payout subject to tax?
This calculator shows pre-tax amounts. Actual tax treatment varies by product type. Personal pension accounts may be subject to income tax on withdrawals.
How does the Preserve Principal option work?
Only interest earnings are withdrawn while the principal remains intact permanently — ideal for long-term wealth preservation in retirement.
What annual return rate should I use?
For conservative portfolios (bonds/savings), use 1–3%. For balanced stock-bond portfolios, 4–6% is typical. Consider subtracting inflation to get your real return.
