Is the transfer value of a pension the same as the cash value?

I am thinking here the answer to this should be yes.

In some situations, you can be quoted a transfer value and a current value.

In most circumstances, these should be the same.

If however, there are charges throughout the whole term of the pension plan, then the transfer value may be less because of a deduction of any outstanding charges at the point of transfer.

The same principle applies if there is something called a Market Value Adjustment (MVA) or Market Value Reduction (MVR). These are found on With Profits funds.

Sometimes, on With Profits funds they will award a bonus at the time of a transfer and this will have the effect of making the transfer value higher than the current value.

A WORD FROM OUR CLIENTS...

“I had a number of separate pension pots which I’d built up over my career and I visited Oaklands Wealth for advice on consolidating them. The result has been an investment into a single personal pension which is producing far better returns than I had previously had with the separate pensions. All services and advice from Oaklands have been excellent.”

A WORD FROM OUR CLIENTS...

“Helen is outstanding in her knowledge of the pension ‘minefield’ and immediately gave us a feeling of ease when discussing, what is after all, the rest of our financial lives. From the very first e-mail to the ‘sit down’ you have with her, everything is done in plain English. Helen is a model professional in this field.”
