  • What is a Beneficiary Income Stream (BIS) Flexi Pension?

    A BIS Flexi Pension allows you to receive an income stream from a death benefit. You can only start a BIS Flexi Pension if you’re entitled to receive a death benefit and you’re the spouse of the deceased.

    By choosing to receive an income stream from a BIS Flexi Pension:

    • you decide how much you want to draw and how often — (subject to the minimum amount set by the government),
    • your lump sum can be invested across our range of investment options,
    • you can access additional money whenever you need it, and
    • you have secure online access to your account.
