Question label:
Has a pension pot eligible for drawdown
Question text:
Now thinking further about pensions, with a defined contribution pension you build up a pot of money that you can then use to provide an income in retirement. This differs from defined benefit schemes, which promise a specific income in retirement. Changes to the law mean it is now easier to withdraw cash sums from pension pots in some circumstances. Do you have any defined contribution pension pots that you can now withdraw cash sums from?
Question universe:
if DEMOGRAPHICS.PDVAGE >= 50 (Aged 50 or over)
