What are Personal Pensions?
A personal pension is a tax-efficient way of saving for your retirement. Personal pensions come under a variety of guises depending on your residency or personal circumstances. For Jersey residents, personal pensions are termed Retirement Trust Schemes (RTS) and in Guernsey; Retirement Annuity Retirement Trusts (RATs). A personal pension can also be held in a Self Invested Personal Pension known as a SIPP. For UK pensions transfers, these are eligible for transfer into SIPPs, or into a *QROPs or QNOPs depending on your circumstances.
*Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme & Qualified Non-UK Pension Scheme.
Getting tax relief on pensions means some of your money that would have gone to the government as tax goes into your pension instead!
Benefit from tax relief every year on your annual income
Take a tax free lump sum (age and amount depends on your tax residency)
The value of your pension will pass to your spouse or estate when you die
*The above information for Jersey is £50k p.a tax relief, 30% tax free lump sum at age 50 and ability to withdraw at age 50 or 55 if there are UK benefits.

Personal Pensions in a nutshell
A personal pension is basically a long-term savings plan with tax relief. For Jersey residents you can currently gain tax relief on up to £50,000 per annum*
*Limits and restrictions may apply

What is a Retirement Trust Scheme?
Retirement trust schemes (RTS) are simply trust arrangements which act as administered personal pension schemes in Jersey. You're entitled to income tax relief on contributions paid into an RTS.
-
Why do I need a personal pension?
The simple fact is we are living longer. Life expectancies are expected to carry on improving over the next 50 years, by which time a 65 year old could live until they are 93. That’s 28 years your pension will need to last for.

What if I have a SIPP?
A SIPP is a self-invested personal pension. If you have opted for a SIPP over an RTS and would like Spring to provide your investment solution, we can help. Why not get in touch with our dedicated investment team today.
