Money invested is at risk
A pension is a long-term investment. Its value can go down as well as up and could be worth less than was paid in. Laws and tax rules may change in the future. Your own circumstances and where you live in the UK will also have an impact on tax treatment.
Combining pensions will not be right for everyone. You will need to consider if it's right for you.
