Royal London Income Tap

Has anyone used the Royal London "Income Tap" to use as taxable income withdrawals. I am understanding that you can allocate a portion of your fund from your main investment portfolio into a deposit fund where it is protected from stock market fluctuations. I was looking to move about 12 months of monthly income payments. Royal London are confusing me as they say the income tap is unable to be set up until i make withdrawals?

    If you are primarily looking at stock market stability, you could just use the RL Sterling Short Term Money Market fund.

    Being in the Govan portfolio is a choice. It doesn't stop you self-selecting as an alternative.
