4 The New Pension Regime Legislation Changes and their Impact
5 The Key Basics Annual allowance reduced to 40,000 on 6th April Carry forward 3 years unused relief Lifetime Allowance reduced to 1.25m on 6th April 2014 Minimum Pension age 55 More flexibility for private arrangements
6 Annual Allowance for Hospital Doctors
7 Annual Allowance - Officers Just what is 40,000? CPI is 2.7% (Tax year 14/15) This is as at Example: Member with 34 years service (beginning of the year ) with pensionable salary of 95,860-34/80 x 95,860 = 40,740 x = 41,840 Following year 35 years service (end of the year ) with increment to point 9-35/80 x 101,451 = 44,385
8 Annual Allowance Independent financial advice only for BMA members One year s increase in pension benefit is 2,545 plus additional lump sum benefits of 7,635 Pension Accrual 2,545 x 16 40,720 Plus Lump Sum Benefit 7,635 TOTAL DEEMED CONTRIBUTION 48,355 Calculate any unused relief from the three previous years If none available this exceeds allowance by 8,355 Tax charge at either 40% or 45% of excess Do not forget to include any private pension contributions in the calculation
9 MHO Status Once 20 years service achieved each year of service doubled Therefore 2/80 th s would be accrued each year. Based on previous example the total deemed contribution would have been 72,446 Exceeds the Annual Allowance by 32,446
10 Key Date 6 th April 2014 Implication Result Taxation Reduction in total lifetime allowance to 1.25m on 6 th April 2014 Any amount over the lifetime allowance will be liable for a tax charge. 25% or 55% charge depending on whether surplus taken as an income or as a lump sum
11 The New Lifetime Allowance? How much have you actually built up towards the 1.25m? Example 1995 scheme member retiring with pension valued at 55,000 55,000 x 20 = 1,100,000 Lump sum = 165,000 TOTAL = 1,265,000
12 A Possible Solution Flexibility of Lump Sum NHS Pension now allows members to obtain a larger lump sum than the standard 3 x pension This is approximately 5.36 x pension with an overall limit of 25% of the current lifetime allowance ( 312,500) 12 lump sum for each 1 of pension sacrificed
13 Option One Option Two Pension 55,000 x 20 1,100,000 Pension 52,000 x 20 1,040,000 Plus tax free cash 165,000 Total value 1,265,000 Minus Lifetime All 1,250,000 Surplus 15,000 Plus tax free cash 165,000 Extra tax free cash 36,000 Total Value 1,241,000 Minus Lifetime All 1,250,000 Surplus - 9,000 Equivalent Lifetime Allowance Charge to pay 8,250 Lifetime Allowance Charge NIL
14 What if you have a private arrangement? Pension 55,000 x 20 1,100,000 Plus tax free cash 165,000 Plus PPP 100,000 Total value 1,365,000 Minus Lifetime All 1,250,000 Surplus 115,000 Pension 42,709 x ,180 Plus tax free cash 165,000 Extra tax free cash 147,492 Plus PPP 100,000 Total Value 1,266,672 Minus Lifetime All 1,250,000 Surplus 16,672 Equivalent Lifetime Allowance Charge to pay 63,250 Equivalent Lifetime Allowance Charge to pay 9,170
15 Other Potential Solutions Independent financial advice only for BMA members Early retirement actuarial penalty Allocation of pension to a dependant
16 Pension Protection Independent financial advice only for BMA members Four types of historic protection - Primary Protection available until Enhanced Protection available until Fixed Protection 2012 available until Fixed Protection 2014 available until
17 Fixed Protection Words of warning Strict rules apply from either 6 th April 2012 or 6 th April No further money purchase (private pension arrangement) contributions can be made - For defined benefit schemes (e.g. NHSPS), no further benefits can accrue above the "relevant percentage". - In the NHS pension scheme the relevant percentage is the rate of CPI Deferred members extreme caution needed - Auto enrolment started October Where possible will be reinstated into the NHS Pension Scheme - Where not possible an alternative NEST scheme will be provided. If appropriate must opt out within one month of joining - Will be enrolled every three years
18 Individual Protection Draft legislation issued will apply to those with pensions which have a capital value over 1.25 million on 5th April Planned to give individuals a personal lifetime allowance of the greater of the value of their pension rights on 5 April 2014 (up to an overall maximum of 1.5 million) and the standard lifetime allowance ( 1.25 million from April 2014). Planned to allow people to carry on saving in their pension scheme without losing their protection (with any savings above the individual's LTA becoming subject to the LTA charge when benefits are taken). Three years to apply from Can have alongside Fixed protection 2012 or 2014 and enhanced protection
19 Flexibility Your private arrangements
20 Annuity Purchase abolished for some For those with private arrangements no compulsion to purchase an annuity at any age Introduction of Flexible Drawdown Change to taxation on death increased from 35% to 55%
21 Flexible and Capped Drawdown If minimum guaranteed income of 12,000 per year 25% tax free cash can be taken Remaining fund can be withdrawn in full Further withdrawals taxed at marginal rate of income tax Income can be occupational pension, state pension, pension annuity income Drawdown pension income excluded Annual allowance reduced to nil (although further tax relievable pension contributions can be made an annual allowance charge would apply which would effectively claw back the tax relief) From 6 th April 2015 it is proposed that anyone can withdraw total money purchase (private or occupational) pensions in cash Apart from the 25% tax free cash sum, any further withdrawals are subject to the individual s marginal rate of income tax
