A SIPP is a type of pension that allows individuals more control over their retirement funds. Unlike traditional pensions, SIPPs give investors the freedom to choose from a wider range of investments, including stocks, mutual funds, and commercial property. They are tax-advantaged, meaning contributions grow tax-free until retirement, making them appealing for those looking to actively manage their retirement savings.

Personal pensions are long-term retirement savings plans typically offered by insurance companies or financial institutions. Individuals make contributions, which are then invested to grow over time. Personal pensions benefit from tax relief on contributions, helping savers build a retirement fund. They are generally managed by the provider, making them a hands-off option for retirement savings compared to SIPPs.

Life insurance provides a financial safety net for your loved ones in the event of your death. It typically pays out a lump sum or regular payments to your beneficiaries, helping cover expenses like mortgages, debts, or living costs.

Critical illness cover pays out a lump sum if you’re diagnosed with a specified serious illness, such as cancer, heart attack, or stroke. This benefit can help cover medical expenses, home modifications, or other costs associated with recovery, allowing you and your family to focus on your health without financial strain. Critical illness policies vary in the conditions they cover, so it’s essential to review the policy terms.

Income protection insurance provides a regular income if you’re unable to work due to illness or injury. Unlike critical illness cover, income protection typically pays a monthly benefit until you can return to work or reach the end of the policy term, ensuring ongoing financial support.
