Recent tax changes announced by Chancellor Jeremy Hunt may mean that any future loss calculations may require review. If you have an ongoing case that we have assisted with, we would be happy to discuss this with you. Likewise, for any potential new instructions we are always happy to have an initial chat.

In the 2023 budget, Chancellor Jeremy Hunt announced fundamental changes to the Annual Allowance and Life Time Allowance charges for pensions savers. What are The Allowances? The Annual Allowance is the amount that an individual can pay into their pension scheme (both their own and their employer contributions) each year before paying Tax on the contributions made. The Life Time Allowance is the total amount an individual’s pension fund can be before they pay additional Taxes on their pension benefits. What Has Changed? The Annual Allowance has increased from £40,000 per annum to £60,000 per annum. The Lifetime Allowance, which was £1,073,100, has been abolished. What Does This Mean for Your Client? If you have a high earning client (often in the public sector where employer contributions are more generous), then your current calculation of lost pension benefits may include deductions for tax under both the Annual and Lifetime Allowance schemes and so may now be materially understated. How Can We Help? Our team have vast experience in assessing pension loss claims for all types of occupations and are fully au fait with the changes to the Tax rules from April. We would be happy to carry out a review of your pension loss calculations either on a stand alone basis or in conjunction with other relevant heads of claim.
