Partnership: Male clients about to retire?

Male clients about to retire?

They could lose out if they do not act by 20 December 2012.

The EU Gender Directive comes into effect on 21 December 2012. From this date, annuity providers will no longer be able to offer different rates for men and women.

This new Directive will reduce the pension income available of all males (and potentially their partners on joint life cover) retiring after 20 December 2012. 

Partnership has changed its processes to help you meet the deadline.

At Partnership, we want to help you obtain the best possible annuity for your clients – so we have changed our processes to enable you to confirm the clients acceptance right up until midnight on 20 December 2012

Beat the deadline. Act now
