Drawdown pension providers are assessed on investment choice, platform charges, withdrawal flexibility and tools. All must be FCA-authorised. FSCS protects up to £85,000 per eligible claimant if the provider fails. Key cost comparison: percentage-fee platforms suit smaller pots; flat-fee platforms suit larger pots. The Pension Wise service offers free government-backed guidance on drawdown options for those aged 50 or over (FCA, FSCS, Money and Pensions Service, 2026).
