What are decision trees?

Decision trees are a simple step-by-step guide to help you decide whether a Stakeholder Pension is suitable for you.

These decision trees have been designed by the Financial Services Authority (FSA) to help you answer the question 'Would a Stakeholder Pension be right for me?'

We recommend that you use this valuable tool. Please read the information leading into the decision tree as this will help you make the right choices. Once you have completed the tree you can print out your choices for future reference.

Please take the time to read and use the decision trees carefully, giving accurate answers to the questions. They do not give you financial or professional advice. If you are not sure of the correct answer, please find out the right information - don't guess. The decision you take will be your responsibility. However if the tree recommends you take advice, or if you are not sure what is right for you, then you should seek advice. You may have to pay for this advice.
