Hello everybody. I am a member of the pension scheme at work, and as well as employer contributions, and I paying into the scheme every month. However recently I have been considering opening a private pension fund. Which is better? What are the differences? What kind of pensions do you have? Thanks

Hi there. Which pension is better, company or private, of course depends on the individual scheme. I dont know what the terms of your company pension are, and as there are a lot of different schemes around I cant really judge your situation. Personally Im in a civil service final salary scheme, which is one of the better schemes. But even in that case, if you have the extra money now, it might still be a good idea to put it into a private pension, as well as still having your company pension. After all you dont know how much you might need it when you are retired!
