As with all investing, your capital is at risk. The value of your portfolio with Nutmeg can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you invest. This calculator is not a reliable indicator of future performance and is intended as an aid to decision-making, not a guarantee. A pension may not be right for everyone. Tax treatment depends on your individual circumstances and may be subject to change in the future. If you are unsure if a pension is right for you, please seek financial advice. Please note that during any transfer, your investments will be out of the market.

Most people ask us...

What should my retirement goal be?

If you’re thinking about saving for retirement, contributing to a pension could greatly improve your quality of life after work. How much depends on what you’re willing to contribute and how your investments perform. That second part is where we come in. By understanding what you can afford, you’ll be able to make smarter choices when planning for the future.  

How does the pension calculator work?

If you want to know how much you’ll need to invest each month, or how long it could take to reach your retirement goal, our retirement calculator will give you the estimated final value of your pension pot, how much it could be worth in today’s money, and how much you’ll need to contribute each month to reach that goal.

Your projected monthly personal contributions could be less, as you may benefit from a government top up. For the purposes of this pension forecast, we've assumed you'll increase your contribution in line with inflation. We’ve also assumed an annuity rate of 4%.

Why should I choose a Nutmeg pension?
