Uncrystallised Funds Pension Lump Sum (UFPLS)

Uncrystallised Funds Pension Lump Sum (UFPLS) is an unsecured pension option on retirement. It is a higher risk strategy as the pension remains invested and can continue to fluctuate. Only part of the pension is crystallised (can select any amount up to 100%). Part of the income taken (25% – maximum tax free lump sum is £268,275) is tax free and the rest of the income is taxed at their highest marginal rate. The remaining fund remains invested and is treated as uncrystallised. The retiree can choose to take income from the fund or income and capital. Please note by taking capital the fund value will deplete. Ideal for those that want control and flexibility on the amount of income taken, also they do not need access to the PCLS all in one go. The capital remains invested and can fluctuate, there will also be ongoing charges.

    • Income and capital: Income from the assets plus a capital withdrawal. Provides a higher level of income, however high percentage withdrawals will reduce the remaining fund and may run out.

There is no guarantee that the value will be maintained. 25% of the income is tax free and the remaining income is taxed at the annuitants marginal rate.
