WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?
REDUCING FUTURE
EXCHANGE RATE RISKS
Having your funds invested in the New Zealand dollar will help better understand the value of your pension relative to your projected retirement living costs.
TAX EFFICIENCY IN
RETIREMENT
Once invested in NZ you no longer have to worry about declaring income from your UK pension on your tax return as all payments made to you are tax free in your hands.
CONSOLIDATION OF YOUR
UK SCHEMES
Having your funds in one account in New Zealand may help you stay on top of your retirement savings plan by enhancing visibility and providing access to regular consolidated reporting.
FULL ACCESS
TO YOUR FUNDS
AT 55
Subject to you meeting the revised HMRC rules you could get all of your funds paid to you at age 55.
CONTROL OVER YOU
FUNDS IN THE EVENT OF
YOUR DEATH
There is no obligation to buy an annuity in New Zealand and therefore all payments are taken as income drawdown. In the event of your death 100% of the residual fund is paid to your estate.
