Hi,
I joined the public sector (HSE) 6 months ago. I was in the private sector for 20+ years and have an employers/contribution pension.
Obviously I am in the Single pension scheme but I enquired about doing AVCs and I was told I would need to organise this myself through IPF.
I talked to a financial advisor and I will be able to create a new pension with them and submit AVCs via my payroll. The pension provider will take
a significant % of my AVCs for the first year to cover management costs.
My Questions are
- Have others gone through this process and what advice would they give? What questions should I be asking?
- Does IPF provide the best value for money for public sector employees?
Any advice appreciated.
