1 Pension Tax Changes Survey Summer Budget 2015 December 2015
2 Foreword Pension Tax Changes Survey Foreword Philip Smith Thank you for taking the time to participate in our Pension Tax Changes Survey. We received a large number of responses covering many industry sectors and sizes of organisation, from FTSE100 companies to SMEs and owner managed businesses. This means that we are able to provide you with a comprehensive overview of the market reaction to the recently announced pension changes. Pensions remain a central part of an individual s remuneration package and at the heart of their retirement planning. However, since A-day in April 2006 and the introduction of the Lifetime and Annual Allowances, UK pensions have been anything but simple. The last 10 years have seen no less than 14 changes to the pension tax regime, and the most recent ones announced on 8th July 2015, which will see further reductions in the Lifetime Allowance and the introduction of the tapered Annual Allowance, bring new challenges. Between now and April 2016 employers will need to ensure that employees affected by these changes understand the impact on their retirement planning and are able to act. Most respondents to our survey will be adjusting their reward package to reflect the new tax environment whilst recognising that further change may be as little as four months away. We should not rule out further wholesale change once the Government has had a chance to consider responses to its latest consultation on simplifying pension tax. The results of the survey provide you with insight into the recent thinking following Summer Budget 2015 and how our clients are navigating through the new pension landscape.

8 Summary and contacts Impact of the pension tax changes There is uncertainty as to how to respond to Summer Budget Most organisations are still gathering information or debating policy Over 50% of respondents agree that their will be additional costs for them in respect of payroll and administration processes. Respondents with both DB and DC pension schemes are further forward in their decision making, than those with just a DC scheme. There is significant concern in relation to how the changes will be administered, and nearly 2/3rds of respondents noted that training will be required for their internal pension and payroll employees. A cash allowance is the favoured option for those who have made a decision. Corporate ISAs are the most popular alternative workplace savings vehicle. Generally the pension tax changes will not affect how companies currently fund retirement for the majority of employees.
