The knowledge and control of retirement savings will
provide security for your future

UK Pensions Australia has been established to provide assistance and knowledge to people who have left the UK on a permanent basis and are considering transferring their UK pension benefits to an Australian superannuation fund.

In 2006, the UK made a number of changes to pension legislation. One of these changes was the confirmation that UK pensions could be transferred abroad, provided that the individual had left the UK on a permanent basis and that the receiving pension scheme had been registered in the UK as a Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme (QROPS).

In 2015 the UK Government suspended all pension transfers to Australia, with the exception of pensions relating to those aged 55 and over.

Advice on an alternative is available for clients under the age of 55 who wish to have increased control of the investments within their pension and require the protection of high transfer values with preparation for a future transfer to Australia.
