Pensions with Lauren McHenry

Pensions... your choices now affect your plans later. The topic that is mentioned most by our advisors, explained simply! Pensions are a long-term investment. Your eventual income will depend on several factors, including the value of your fund when you decide to take benefits and the choices you make at retirement. The value of your pension can fall as well as rise, and you may get back less than you have paid in. Past performance is not a reliable guide to future results.

Salary Exchange with Olivia O'Neill

Do you make the most out of your employee benefits? Olivia takes us through what salary sacrifice means and what it does in the long run. It’s important to be aware that entering a salary exchange arrangement may affect your entitlement to certain statutory and state benefits. Reducing your contractual salary could impact:   * Statutory Maternity Pay (SMP) * Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) * Redundancy pay * Death-in-service benefits * Eligibility for means-tested benefits or tax credits   These impacts depend on individual circumstances, including your earnings and the timing of the exchange. We recommend speaking to your HR or payroll team, and considering independent financial advice, before entering into or making changes to a salary exchange arrangement.
