Taking control of your pension and understanding your investments can have a huge impact on when you retire. 💸 Are you contributing too much? There’s a sneaky rule that means if you earn above £260,000, you may be paying too much into your pension. If ignored, you might be building up a nasty tax bill!

Don't overlook your pension in 2024! 🎯   Whether you're in Switzerland, the UK, or beyond, ensuring you are saving for your retirement is crucial. Here are 3 tips to keep you on track and optimising your pension throughout 2024. ✨   𝟏. 𝐈𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐧’𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐲, 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐬𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐧𝐨𝐰!   The earlier you start planning for your retirement, the more time your money has to grow. Occupational / workplace pensions can have compulsory contributions and so you are likely already contributing via your salary.   𝟐. 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐚𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐚𝐱-𝐚𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐬   For example, consider contributing voluntarily to a non-insured Pillar 3a account (Switzerland), an individual savings account (ISA, UK) or individual retirement account (IRA, US).   𝟑. 𝐌𝐚𝐱𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 (𝐢𝐟 𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞)   Your Employer may match additional contributions to an occupational / workplace pension. For 2024, you can contribute up-to CHF 7’056 to a Pillar 3a, GBP 20,000 to an ISA and USD 7,000 (under age 50) or USD 8,000 (over age 50) to an IRA.   Remember, pension planning is a long-term process, and it's important to regularly review and adjust your plan to ensure you're on track to meet your retirement goals.   Patterson Mills are here to help you on your way to enjoying the successful retirement you deserve.
