BT application for a Judicial Review
07
Jun
2018
BT has applied to Court for a judicial review of an HM Treasury decision that could impact how pensions in payment are calculated for certain Section B members.
When can you retire?
As a Section A member, your Normal Pension Age (NPA) is 60. This is when you would normally draw your pension, but you can draw your pension before or after NPA.
As long as you meet HMRC regulations and have BT's agreement, you can take your pension at any time from age 55, if you carry on working for the company, or from age 50 if you leave the company.
Drawing your pension early usually means that your pension will be reduced.
