What is the transfer of defined benefit pension?

At certain times, you can trade in a defined benefit scheme for a fixed-size pension pot found in the defined contribution pension. This process of trading in is known as final salary pension transfer or defined benefit pension transfer. In the process of final pension transfer UK, the pension provider might offer you a certain amount in exchange for your guaranteed pension for life. The money provided will not be in the form of cash instead it will be in form of Cash Equivalent Transfer Value (CETV). The CETV received can be invested in a pension pot from which you can draw some income from 55. The cash equivalent transfer value is the money of your pension scheme that you would need today to make sure that it covers the cost of the benefits you were guaranteed in the future.
