Start with the question you need to resolve

This is an information directory, not a pension-advice service. Keep contract facts, government rules and your own assumptions separate when comparing retirement options.

Build your wider retirement picture

Start with your German pension record, then use the pension-gap calculator to compare entered income and spending assumptions. That calculator does not decide whether a pension product is suitable or determine your state entitlement.
