Pension Sharing When Divorced: What You Need to Know

Why pensions matter
Pensions are often one of the largest assets in a marriage, yet they're frequently overlooked. Failing to account for them can leave one party significantly worse off in retirement.
Pension sharing orders
A pension sharing order splits one or both parties' pensions at the point of divorce, giving each a clean break. Specialist advice—and sometimes an actuary—can help ensure the split is fair.
