Ever wondered what other ways your pension supports you?

Sure, the main idea behind having a defined benefit (DB) pension, like CAAT’s, is to ensure you have a secure source of income during retirement. But it actually goes beyond just that. In fact, your pension could play an important role in laying a foundation of financial stability for your family.

Survivor benefits for your eligible spouse

Your CAAT pension can help make sure your loved ones are cared for when you are gone. Alongside providing you with a lifetime retirement income, it also includes survivor benefits that help ensure your eligible spouse is protected when you are no longer around. It's that safety net that offers peace of mind during a tough time.

Takes the pressure off

Life can be a lot – especially with so many priorities to juggle. And sometimes balancing planning for retirement and handling today’s needs can be challenging. But with your CAAT pension you can breathe a little easier. So, while CAAT’s investment experts manage your pension in the background, you can focus on the here and now of everyday life.

Eases financial responsibility for your family

Having a defined benefit pension like CAAT's, provides you with a reliable source of income throughout retirement. It helps ease the pressure of your loved ones having to support you financially. Your pension lasts for your whole life and your family wouldn’t have to worry about stretching their funds to ensure you have the care you need. This stability gives them peace of mind so they focus on their own financial goals.

Financial security is crucial for achieving and supporting family goals, and your defined benefit pension plays a significant role in that. It's about finding that balance between meeting your family's current needs and securing your future, and your pension is right there, helping you do just that.
