People's Pension Death Benefit Options

amelia1983

Hello,
Long shot, but I thought I would ask... We have a deceased client who has £300k in the People's Pension. His wife is the beneficiary. We have been told the only option is to take the fund as a lump sum. He died over the age of 75 so this will be taxable. Does anyone know if there is anything else we can do?
Thanks in advance.
