SSAS explained
Starting a SSAS
Setting up a Small Self-Administered Scheme (SSAS) should be relatively straightforward.
You will be assigned a dedicated account manager. This is your single point of contact with whom you will work in partnership to set up your SSAS. Your account manager will develop a detailed knowledge of you, your business and your scheme. They will leave no ‘i’ un-dotted or ‘t’ uncrossed!
To set up the SSAS we follow a three-step process:
1Information gathering
- Initial enquiry
- Get to know each other
- Understanding objectives
- Due diligence
2Scheme setup
- Application forms and governing documents
- Register with HMRC and the Pensions Regulator
- Open scheme bank account
- Facilitate transfer of any existing pensions
3Use scheme
- Contribute
- Invest
- Review
- Repeat
Naturally, there are costs associated with setting up and running a SSAS.
We charge a fixed fee for setting up the scheme, which is payable prior to us providing the scheme’s governing documents. Both the setup and ongoing administration fees are generally paid by your company, which means they potentially qualify as tax relievable business expenses. VAT can also be reclaimed if your company is registered for VAT.
