Pension Migration  These days, many people decide to retire abroad, which leads to the question of what should be done with their UK-based pensions. Legislation introduced in 2006 means that it is now possible to transfer pensions overseas to what is known as a QROPS. Many countries treat pensions differently to the UK and our specialist knowledge will help you to assess whether or not it is in your best interests to migrate your pension with you or leave it within the UK.
