KEY ASPECTS OF PENSION CONTRIBUTIONS PLANNING

The annual allowance is the maximum amount that you can contribute to your pension each year while still receiving tax relief. Our team will help you maximise your contributions while remaining within this limit to optimise tax benefits.
If you do not use all your annual allowance in a given year, you may be able to ‘carry forward’ the unused portion to increase your allowance in future years. We can guide you on when and how to use this facility.
This is the maximum amount you can accumulate in your pension over your lifetime while still receiving tax relief. Our advisors will help you plan your contributions to manage this limit effectively.
By giving up part of your salary in exchange for increased employer pension contributions, you may be able to achieve greater tax and national insurance savings. We will assist you in evaluating whether this could be a beneficial strategy for you.

KEY ASPECTS OF PENSION CONTRIBUTIONS PLANNING

When it comes to commercial properties, different tax rules and reliefs apply. While some complexities remain similar, like calculating the gain or changes in use, there are other factors and potential reliefs to consider.

1. A Small Self-Administered Scheme (SSAS) is a type of defined contribution pension scheme available in the UK. It is established under trust by a sponsoring employer, typically for a small number of directors or senior employees.
2. SSAS can purchase commercial property, which can provide a tax efficient means of buying a premises for your business. The rental income paid by the business to the SSAS will be tax deductible for the business and tax free for the SSAS.
  1. Please note that tax laws are complex and subject to change, so it’s important to seek advice from a tax or financial advisor before making decisions based on tax considerations. Also, tax advantages will depend on personal circumstances.
