With Money Purchase / Defined Contribution pensions (those that the majority of people have now where the value of the pension is based on the value of the fund(s) in which it is invested) there are more choices. It is worth finding out what you can do so you can make the choice that best suits your wishes. The first thing to do in all cases is to work out who you want the money to go to and write a letter to the pension provider to this effect, and keep a copy of the letter in your files.
You can always change this at any time by writing a new letter to cancel the old one and lay out new beneficiaries.
