SSAS

What is a SSAS?

A SSAS (Small Self-Administered Scheme) is a type of UK workplace pension scheme that is typically set up by company directors or small businesses for the benefit of its directors, senior staff, and sometimes family members. Unlike standard pensions, a SSAS gives its members greater flexibility and control over how the pension fund is invested.

Should you consider a SSAS?

A Small Self-Administered Scheme (SSAS) can be an effective pension option for business owners or directors of small companies.

Up to 11 members can join a SSAS and whilst these are usually directors of the same company, family members may also be able to join. Along with Organon as professional Trustee, all members become Trustees of the scheme.

The company that sets up the scheme becomes the Sponsoring Employer and during the registration process, HMRC will make their own checks on that company to satisfy themselves that it is a genuine trading entity.

Here are some of the reasons why it may be worthwhile considering a SSAS:

  • You and other member trustees have full control over how the pension is invested.
  • You can invest in a wide range of assets, including commercial property, shares, and (under the right conditions) even make loans back to your company.
  • Contributions from the sponsoring employer are typically tax-deductible for the company.
  • Investments grow free from income tax and capital gains tax.
  • Pension benefits are usually paid out with 25% tax-free (subject to limits).
  • A SSAS could be more cost-effective than multiple SIPPs for a group of people, especially for a family business.

It is worth noting at this point that unlike a SIPP, a SSAS can take a lot longer to set up as each scheme must be individually registered by the HMRC. This process can take a matter of weeks and even months but making sure accurate information is provided about the members and sponsoring employer does help in their scrutiny of each application.

Thinking of moving your SSAS?

It is not uncommon for SSAS clients to be with their pension providers for years.

This isn’t necessarily a bad thing as there are some very good SSAS providers out there.

But what we find is that once clients take a closer look at what they are getting for their annual invoice, they can sometimes find room for improvement.

Some of the reasons why companies ask us to take over their schemes:

  • poor communication
  • not having a single point of contact
  • slow turnaround times
  • lack of proactivity from current provider
  • complex fee structure
  • high fees
  • lack of expertise
  • drop in service levels after a pension company merger

It could be all or just one of these but what we can promise you is a more hands-on approach from day one with clear, justifiable, fees.

If you want us to take a look at your current arrangement and provide you with a comparison on cost and service, we’d be very happy to talk to you.
