WITH CHANGE, COMES OPPORTUNITY

Planning and preparing for your retirement, the best way.

Since the pension freedoms came into effect in 2015, individuals now have better opportunities to plan for retirement in many ways, but there are some potential pitfalls to beware – for example, taking money from your pension could lead to a significant tax bill, loss of state benefits, or reduce the amount you or your employer can pay into your pension, so care should be taken.

The amount you can save into your pension, differs based on your circumstances. The size of your total pension savings also has a limit, which could lead to wider income and taxation issues that could otherwise be avoided. Meanwhile, the fact that offering employee pensions is now mandatory for most employers, brings additional cost and complexity for businesses and other corporate entities.

If you don’t seek advice, you could be caught out by the raft of legislation which governs pensions, so why take the risk of getting it wrong? This is where engaging with experts at Lairgate Financial can guide you safely through the pensions minefield.
