Pensions & raising capital

Directors may prefer to establish a separate pension plan from that of their employees. The reasons for this are that the term of their employment may be a fixed number of years, their tax position may be more complicated than other employees, or they may prefer to set up a form of self administered scheme more suitable to their circumstances.

Directors and partners may also wish to leverage their company pension scheme at some stage to raise funding for the business. This may be a tax- and cost-efficient way of funding the acquisition of commercial property.

In these circumstances, sound pensions advice will be invaluable.
