The value of an investment and income from it can go down as well as up. Your capital is at risk.
A pension is a long term investment. The fund value may fluctuate and can go down, which would have an impact on the level of pension benefits available. Pension income could also be affected by interest rates at the time benefits are taken.
Pension savings are at risk of being eroded by inflation.
Investments do not include the same security of capital which is afforded with a savings account.
