Transcript of WHAT IS COMPLEX ABOUT SAVING FOR A GREAT FUTURE? FOR FINANCIAL ADVISERS ONLY.
HOW TO GET MONEY INTO A SAVINGS POT
IF CUSTOMERS WANT TO IMPROVE THEIRRETIREMENT SAVINGS IN A TAX EFFICIENT WAY
Using existing ISA savings to fund available pension allowances allows:
• customers to increase the capital value of retirement savings AND
• deliver greater retirement income streams after tax AND
• protect the value from any tax charges in event of death before 75
WHY NOW CONSIDER PENSION FUNDING?
• Freedom from April 2015 for those aged 55 and over to deliver income from pension savings without constraints
• Use the tax relief that pension rules allow to provide greater potential retirement income
• ISA savings can provide the means to fund the pension allowances
• Compare net income from pension contribution v NISA
YOUR CUSTOMERS CAN SAVE AND PROTECT THEIR PENSION BENEFITS
