Pensions – Why higher rate taxpayers don’t (always) get 40% tax relief

15 Aug 24 87 min watch

The pensions landscape has changed somewhat dramatically over the years (Pensions Freedoms, LTA abolition, tapered Annual Allowance etc.) but one thing that has remained fairly constant is the operation of pensions tax relief. In a world of high tax, the benefits of pensions tax relief are myriad.

In this session, Mark Devlin from M&G Wealth’s Technical Team will look at how tax relief operates for individuals, third parties and employers, and will talk through case studies which will help to explain how better outcomes for clients can be achieved.
