I can’t help feel the right thing to do on this is to break it down into manageable chunks.
The 40 times defined benefit is a very good transfer valueKolkata Stocks. I would take it (in the example provided) and put it into a SIPP now – that doesn’t require too much thought, just a lot of hassle to actually execute with the 3% in fees from a financial advisor to give you the piece of paper to allow you to do it.
I’d be thinking something along the lines of:
1) Transfer into SIPP right now.
2) Cash holdings for 6 months (to give me time to work out what I need)
3) Lifestyle projection (risk, return required, when to take benefits, staging income withdrawal etc).Chennai Investment
4) Portfolio allocation.
5) Invest £300K proceeds.
6 months in cash is not going to make much difference, the big prize on offer is the 40 times defined benefit – and that is very much a time limited offer.Mumbai Investment
SIPPs are fantastic, not only in terms of investment choice, but also because it is ring fenced for you personally (with the right one), you can decide when and how to take benefits – thus mitigating significant tax problems with being forced to take a defined benefit pension – and you absolutely can live in the expectation that your descendents get a significant legacy, which they will need, since they won’t get higher rate relief on pensions. Living costs – especially housing costs – are looking like they will be materially higher for that generation. OK, not everyone needs to leave a legacy, but it is a significant factor for many.Lucknow Investment
Just like pension transfers which are often valid for 3 months, you can often reserve a new mortgage (with the rate and amount) for a small fee and have as long as 6 months to complete.Ahmedabad Wealth Management
Both of these scenarios allows for a lock into the interest rate environment (bonds for pensions, swaps for mortgages) – at your option, without an obligation – on a backward looking basis, for virtually no cost. This is a massive, massive benefit in a volatile interest rate environment.
