Pension Illustration Service


We are pleased to announce the launch of our new Pension Illustration Service. The service is now live and available for you to use within our dedicated Adviser Centre.

Advisers who are registered with our Adviser Centre will now be able to enjoy the following benefits:

  • Produce instant Full SIPP new business illustrations (including transfer values and contributions)

  • Produce instant Full SIPP income drawdown illustrations

  • Retrieve and edit existing client illustrations

The system associates your USER ID with the company for which you work and consequently enables you to produce appropriately customised illustrations, where applicable.

The service is quick and easy to use and enables you to produce real-time illustrations in a safe and secure environment at a time convenient to you. The service covers our Full SIPP product as well as those from our branding partners.

If you have not already registered with our website you can easily register today and start enjoying all of the above benefits too.



For Advisers already registered with our Adviser Centre

If you are already registered with our Adviser Centre, access to the illustration service will be via your secure User ID and Password, which we have already set up on the system for you. Your login details will be as follows:

User ID – your registered email address in full

Password – surname followed by first name e.g. smithfred

We recommend that you change your password the first time you log in for security purposes.

For Advisers not yet registered with our Adviser Centre

  1. Simply complete the quick registration process within our Adviser Centre. All we need from you is some basic information.

  2. We can then give you access to our dedicated Adviser Centre, which also includes a wide variety of sales aids, information about us, calculators, technical assistance and links to other key financial websites to help your business.

  3. We will also send you regular e-newsletters on 'pension hot topics' as they arise direct to your PC.


We hope you enjoy your visits to our dedicated Adviser Centre and find our new Pension Illustration Service useful. Please bookmark us for future visits.
