Description

Join us for the second in our two part series on recent legacy pension and reserve changes - Part 2 is “New Reserve Rules - opportunities, tips and traps".

 

Details
At the same time as introducing a 5 year amnesty to wind up legacy pensions, the Government changed the regulations applying to reserve allocations. The second webinar in our 2 part series - “New reserve rules - opportunities, tips and traps” explains these changes in full and shares our ideas on how best to use these new rules for yourself or your clients.

We will work through:
  • what the new rules are and who they impact
  • cases that are not countenanced by the new rules and still need to be handled with care
  • new consequences when reserve allocations are checked against a contribution cap
  • ideas on optimal ways to deal with reserves under the new regime - we share multiple case studies we’ve seen in practice and how they will change in the future
  • the special complexities in 2024/25 (when two sets of rules collide)


Again, Heffron’s technical team has deep expertise on not just how reserve allocations work but how to weigh up competing needs and different tax outcomes.

While we are running these webinars together, they won’t both be relevant for everyone. 

The new reserve rules go well beyond legacy pensions - they also impact reserves which came about under entirely different circumstances (investment reserves, anti detriment reserves) and reserves that may have existed for many years. 

Similarly, not all legacy pensions involve reserves - for example, if your only interest is in dealing with a market linked pension, your needs will be met with Part 1 : "Legacy Pension Amnesty - options, tips and traps" alone. Click here for more information.
