    This means they do not become obsolete should you move between jurisdictions, and you will not face the trouble of moving assets between providers to be able to ensure savings remain tax efficient. The schemes are generally domiciled in The Channel Islands a very favourable jurisdiction both from your political and tax viewpoint.
    .
    One of the recurring themes we deal with as financial planners is the subject of buying more NHS Pension benefits.

    It's now worth a revisit as being the situation is probably changing again! For the punch drunk amongst you, we will try to keep this as painless as you possibly can.

    To be serious for a moment though, these decisions are often fundamental to your future standard of living and comfort in retirement, as well as your options to semi retire and retire earlier, so it's worth taking a few minutes to ensure you are making the right decisions.

    Traditionally it has become agreed that the fundamental NHS Pension Scheme is usually unbeatable, and that is still the case. However, how about 'making up' for lost benefits or attaining that 'magic 40 years service'?


    Advocates involving such schemes would say:

    oThey are flexible to what you contribute

    oHave the probability growth over added years if the stock markets perform

    But equally:

    oSince they can be investment based there are generally no guarantees

    Complete Nothing

    This can be due to confusion, "I can't afford it" or sheer apathy.

    However, it may be the "best" option for you, especially if you will be in your 50's.

    The brand new proposed NHS Pension modifications (if approved) can come into effect in 08, and will have a huge impact on a scheme largely unchanged since 1948.

    For brevity these changes comprise:

    - Ability to take more tax free cash out of your pension

    : Abatement of pension on time for work and part period work whilst taking pension benefits

    - Higher earners paying more towards their pension - so 6% now could check out 8. 5% for case, although likely to be tiered

    : Earnings cap to fade for high earners so more of your pay is pensionable

    : A new facility so as to "buy" up to £ 5, 000 yearly unrelated to service history

    - The scrapping in the 40 years maximum assistance rule!

    As if this is not enough, we must remember the new Pension A Day rules that arrived to force in April. These give new rules with contributions and benefits, and introduced a new Lifetime Allowance of £ 1. 5 thousand thousand in today's terms. If you build up a larger pot there are a tax penalty chargeable.

    Let's require a deep breath and discover where this takes us.

    Summary

    Aren't everyone pleased that the 'pension simplification' rules and proposed NHS Pension changes have caused it to be so much easier for you doctors and dentists to make an informed decision?
