You might feel ready to retire now, or retire early, but you are not sure if you can rely on your current pension savings to provide enough money for the rest of your life.
You might have experienced a change to your financial situation, including life events such as divorce and have new concerns about whether you can save enough.
You might have previously felt confident about your retirement plan, but the COVID-19 pandemic has derailed your savings.
