As you start your retirement journey, our experts are there to help, with years of experience in advising our customers on settling or setting up your AVC or PRSA, retirement investments, pension benefits, Single Premium (Last Minute) AVCs and more.

There are several steps involved in settling your AVC or PRSA at retirement. You can also meet with one of our retirement experts, who will be happy to guide you through the process, or find out more through one of our handy guides when you visit cornmarket.ie/avc.
There are several options available for early retirement, including taking out an AVC, 'buying' additional years of service, or retiring early through the Cost Neutral Early Retirement Scheme. Our dedicated Retirement Planning Team can help find the best choice for you.
Ideally, you should start planning for retirement at least 5-6 years before your intended retirement date to ensure you’re retirement ready and are financially secure when the time for retirement comes. But it’s never to late! For example, a single premium AVC can be done right up to your retirement date.
Your Cornmarket consultant will arrange to meet with you either in-person or online (wherever you feel most comfortable) and go over crucial information about your retirement such as your benefits and entitlements, give you an overview of your retirement options, advise you on how to properly manage your funds in retirement, and more, based on your individual circumstances.
