Understanding Sipp Pensions


In this article published in 50 connect.co.uk, Darius Mc Dermott gives an experts opinion on Self Invested Personal Pensions or SIPPS as they are more commonly known and how the changes that are being made in April 2006 will change the way people look at and use Sipps.

Darius explains that SIPPs differ from Personal Pensions in that any underlying assets that you have can be held under the wrapper of a SIPP.

He goes on to explain that you also have the chance to make contributions to a wide range of investments such as Shares, Commercial Property, Investment Trusts and from April 2006, Residential Property.

The tax benefits on Sipps Pensions are what essentially separate a Sipps pension from other types of investments. Darius explains that unlike the other pension plans on offer all growth within Sipps is completely exempt from capitol gains tax and any income that is derived from the investments made by a Sipps Pension is also free of income tax.

Darius also states that he sees the main changes to be in the amount of money you can invest at one time and during the overall lifetime of the Sipp Pension.

The key area that Darius Mc Dermott says anyone who is considering a pension should look at is the charges charged by the companies providing the Sipps wrapper.
