Please enter your postcode and gender below to get an estimate of your life expectancy compared to the national average based on where you currently live. It also gives you an indication of the difference that your postcode could make to your annuity if life insurers were to price their annuities solely by reference to national statistics on life expectancy for that area. Note that this does not necessarily mean that you would be able to obtain an annuity on these terms in the market.
