Hi I have a small pension with another company - which matured when I reached 60.
My current company has now offered that I can join their company pension. I am 61 and would be able to put in the full 40% (with a small company contribution of 5%) of my salary until retirement (contract is up at 65 with rolling contract going forward). I am not a high earner and the maximum that would be going in every month would be approx €1k. Is it worth my while doing this until retirement in the company pension, or should I think of putting that money somewhere else. I have no investment knowledge. I was looking at the company policy and the investments are fairly conservative due to my age. Any advice would be welcome. Thank you.
