Pension lifetime allowance cuts on the horizon
Pension lifetime allowance cuts on the horizon New HMRC statistics show the lifetime allowance continues …
Read moreIs 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.
