The FAR programme is delivered in two parts. It begins with our comprehensive pension brief, designed to help Service personnel better understand their Armed Forces Pension Scheme. This is followed by a financial planning presentation from Lester Brunt Wealth Management Ltd.
While some of you may feel confident about your benefit entitlements, many are less aware of potential gaps in their pensions knowledge. That’s why the pension brief covers not only the benefits available across all three Armed Forces Pension Schemes and the RFPS, but also the wider entitlements you may be entitled to.
Pension topics we cover are:
- An overview of each pension scheme; Early Departure Payment (EDP) packages; Medical Awards; Pension Increases; Taxation; Commutation; Death in Retirement; FTRS Employment; Pen Form 1 Completion; State Pension
The financial awareness presentation will:
- Cover all aspects of financial planning; Give ample time for questions; Offer consultations without obligation
And did you know these workshops can be attended at any point in your Service career, although priority is given to Service leavers with 9 months or less to discharge.
Briefings are tailored, where numbers permit, to different rank groups, and partners are welcome to attend. So if you’re approaching resettlement see dates for All Ranks and dates for Officers book now!!
