QROPSEXPERT GUIDE
Why a QROPS (a Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme)
Because A QROPS can “Seriously Increase Your Wealth”

Most UK pension schemes are only permitted to pay 25% of the underlying pension fund in the
form of a (TAX FREE) lump sum. However, QROPS are subject to different Her Majesty's
Revenue and Customs (HMRC) rules that relate specifically to QROPS, which can permit a
much larger lump sum withdrawal.

As a consequence under current Isle of Man (IOM) QROPS legislation only 70% of the
underlying transfer value is required to remain in the QROPS, when you chose to take the
benefits from age 55 (at crystallisation) the remainder is available as a TAX FREE lump sum.

For example; James who is 45, transfers a total of £200,000 (all non-protected rights) into a
QROPS scheme based in the IOM, from his UK pension arrangements.

When James reaches say age 65, and is thinking of retiring, his QROPS fund has grown to say
£600,000. Being a non-UK resident for over 5 years, James is only required to take a pension
with £140,000 of his accumulated QROPS fund (this represents 70% of the “Original” transfer
amount of the original £200,000) the excess over this £140,000 can be paid to him as a “TAX
FREE” lump sum amounting to some £460,000. So his maximum lump sum in this example is
some 75% of his total pension fund – all, currently, in accordance with HMRC rules.

In contrast; if James had kept his pension in the UK his maximum lump sum would have only
been 25% of his fund, some £150,000.

So, currently, an IOM based QROPS allows James – in accordance with HMRC rules – to take a
lump sum which is say in this example some 3 times larger, and all TAX FREE. As opposed to
a person within a UK pension scheme, the maximum tax free lump sum would be restricted to 25%
of the underlying fund value.

In Summary, under current IOM legislation only 70% of the underlying transfer value is required
to remain in the QROPS when you chose to take the benefits from age 55 (at crystallisation) the
remainder is available as a TAX FREE lump sum – to spend as you wish.

In addition the remaining pension income is paid GROSS and not NET of UK income tax at
your highest marginal rate – clearly again this has the potential of increasing your wealth if you
live in country where no tax is payable on unearned income; for example in Hong Kong, you
would receive your pension income from the UK GROSS TAX FREE and it would remain
TAX FREE here in Hong Kong.

Introduction
Wealth Management Hong Kong provides you with all the answers and help that you have been
looking for in deciding if a QROPS (a Qualifying Recognised Overseas Pension Scheme) may be
right for you! Not only can you study the information contained in this guide, but if at any time
you need more detailed information, analysis, or friendly advice in plain English then we are
here to help you.

Anyone with a UK pension scheme who now lives overseas as an expatriate, or is planning to

And the financial benefits can be huge if planned correctly; by improving the investment growth,
flexibility, and future financial security of your pension – “YOUR MONEY”.

Compiled by industry experts with over 19 years experience, our aim is to maximize your
expatriate status and help you achieve your financial goals by getting more out of YOUR
PENSION – “YOUR MONEY”.

We will only ever help you transfer to QROPS providers if they are right for you and your
individual circumstances, and that are 100% approved by HMRC; in addition we can also advise
you as to the best jurisdiction you should use, given your individual circumstances.

If, at any time you would like to speak to one of our specialist QROPS advisers then we are here
to help you.

QROPSEXPERT GUIDE
About QROPS
QROPS came about as a result of changes to the UK pension’s legislation that came into effect
on 6th April 2006 – “A Day”. These schemes enable a member of a UK pension scheme to
transfer to an overseas scheme recognised by Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs (HMRC).
There are a number of jurisdictions approved by the UK tax authorities and they are offered by a
number of providers.

They are only available to people who are planning to cease being a UK ordinary resident, or
who are not currently an ordinary resident in the UK, and who are no longer making, or will
cease to make future contributions to their pension scheme. Furthermore the existing pension
scheme must not be in drawdown; for example you have not currently taken any benefits from
your scheme (for example, any tax free cash and / or an income).

The main benefits of a QROPS are:

• Benefits are available from age 55.
• There is no requirement to purchase an annuity on retirement or at any other time.
• Greater flexibility exits in how you can take an income from the underlying fund.
• A minimum of 30% of the underlying fund value is available as a TAX FREE lump sum.
• Under current Isle of Man (IOM) legislation only, 70% of the underlying transfer value is
required to remain in the QROPS when you chose to take the benefits from age 55 (at
crystallisation) the remainder is available as a TAX FREE lump sum.
• The underlying investments grow in a tax-free environment (other than dividend
withholding taxes).
• The full fund is payable free of any UK Inheritance Tax (IHT); in the event of your
premature death whenever and where ever that occurs with a current tax rate of 40%.
• Tax advantages and guarantees provided by offshore investments; whilst remaining under
the comfort of the UK regulatory framework.
• There are no UK income tax liabilities on received pension payments. Payments are
paid GROSS of any UK income tax.
• Greater control over the investment of your underlying investment fund, with a wide
range of choices available to you. This is important because, the greater the underlying
fund value – all other things being equal – the larger your income will be.
• Greater flexibility over the nature and timing of your retirement benefits.
• The pension fund can be denominated in a wide range of currencies to suit you (this may
reduce currency risk).

T: +852 5307 3732

QROPSEXPERT GUIDE
• QROPS are exempt from the UK Lifetime Allowance (the maximum value of the
underlying fund; before tax on any excess becomes liable; currently at a tax rate of
55%).
• Wider limits on pension income levels, which can be varied to suit your individual
circumstances.
• A QROPS removes “Your Money” from UK HMRC Pension Tax currently calculated
at a tax rate of 55%.
• A particularly flexible contract where an extensive range of investments can be made.
• Saliently a QROPS puts you back in control of YOUR MONEY.

In addition we provide:

• A highly experienced investment management team with over 19 years of expertise.
• Regular reviews on your investments; and to changes to your personal circumstances.

QROPS then have significant advantages for people looking for greater control over the
investment of their pension fund; and the shape and timing of their retirement benefits in their
lifetime; and who also see the advantages of passing over TAX FREE lump sum benefits in the
event of their premature death. With the pension income being paid FREE of UK Income Tax;
there are clearly advantages for people living in jurisdictions where pension income is not taxed
(Note: we recommend that you seek individual tax advice regarding your particular
circumstances).

But where do you turn to next for the best advice?

Best advice means not just informing you about the benefits, but also any potential pitfalls that
you should consider. That’s where our FREE evaluation service becomes invaluable in helping
you source expert independent advice and guidance.

After you have read through the rest of our guide, may we suggest you contact us for a
discussion relating to all the points you should consider depending on your personal
circumstances. Then simply call us on +852 5307 3732 we will be pleased to help you and

QROPSEXPERT GUIDE
Points to Consider Before Transferring Into a QROPS
Before transferring away from your existing pension provider it is important to consider:
• Whether there are any Guaranteed Annuity Rate benefits attaching to your current
schemes. These benefits were not uncommon in the past, when interest rates were much
higher than they are at present, and therefore look attractive in the current market.
• Charges and penalties on the exit of your UK pension scheme.
• The charges of the new QROPS scheme, in comparison to your existing arrangements.
• The different benefit structures and tax treatment of your existing scheme and a QROPS.
• Any known future changes to UK pension legislation and the potential impact this may
have on your decision.
• Any known impending changes in legislation within the various jurisdictions that offer
QROPS.

How do QROPS Schemes Work?
QROPS consist of two elements:

1. The QROPS Trustees: the trustees are responsible for the administration of the QROPS
scheme; and to ensure that it operates within the QROPS and HMRC rules and
regulations.
2. The QROPS investment vehicle: this is where your underlying assets are invested.

Because of the significant opportunities for such schemes to be abused; HMRC tend to monitor
these closely and penalise members and schemes for making unauthorised payments. During the
first five years QROPS providers are required to report all payments from the scheme to HMRC.
This is another reason why the correct advice and the selecting of a provider (the “Trustee”) that
has a good standing with HMRC is paramount here.
With regard to the choice of investment vehicle
We provide:

• A highly experienced investment management team with over 19 years of expertise.
• Regular reviews on your investments; and to changes to your personal circumstances.

FAQ
What is the minimum value I can transfer to a QROPS?

In our experience the better schemes require funding of around 50,000 GBP. However, there are
similar schemes available from 25,000 GBP. Whatever your situation, and UK pension transfer
value, contact us anyway as there is usually a solution to be found.

Will payments from my QROPS pension fund be reported to HMRC in the UK?

QROPS providers are required to notify HMRC of any payments from transferred pensions in
respect of a relevant member during the initial 5 years from the time the member ceased to be an
ordinary resident of the UK for tax purposes.

And in the event that the member becomes an ordinary resident for tax purposes in the UK; when
the payment is made.

If I transfer my UK pension into a QROPS will I have to buy an annuity?

No, although you may if you wish. Without the need to purchase an annuity it means you can
invest into wide ranging assets, and gain the advantage of passing any remaining funds upon
your premature death to your loved ones. Without any liability to the UK Pension Tax at 55%
or UK IHT at 40%.

Who may apply to transfer their pension into a QROPS?

Most of the schemes are not available to US citizens and there can be problems with US
residents; however any other nationality may apply.

What investment choice and freedom will I have with a QROPS?

The investment choice will normally be very wide indeed. Under certain circumstances you can
manage the assets yourself with total freedom, or work with an investment manager / financial
adviser.

You may also appoint an investment manager to make the decisions for you or with you.
It really depends what you are looking to achieve and how involved you would like to be with
the investment decisions?

T: +852 5307 3732

QROPSEXPERT GUIDE
We can arrange for an investment adviser to work with you by reviewing your QROPS fund
assets and make recommendations to you on a quarterly basis.

There is no limit to the size of funds that may be accumulated within a QROPS; and a QROPS is
exempt from the UK Lifetime Allowance (the maximum value of the underlying fund; before tax
on any excess becomes liable; currently at a tax rate of 55%).

How & when can I take benefits from my QROPS?

Typically there is considerable flexibility in the timing of taking any benefits from a QROPS.
Usually benefits will be taken from the age of 55, but it can be possible to access funds before or
after these ages. Please contact us for further information dependent on your circumstances.

Once I’ve transferred my UK pension to a QROPS can I access my fund as a 100% lump sum?

Unfortunately the answer here is 'no'. This is because the funds that you have built up (after
taking your TAX FREE lump sum) are required under the current QROPS / HMRC rules to
provide an income for you and your dependents for the rest of your life, and perhaps beyond.

How will any benefits or withdrawals be taxed?

Most of the schemes we recommend the pension income is paid GROSS (TAX FREE). The tax
treatment of any income you receive will depend upon where you are tax resident at the time.
(Note: we recommend you seek individual tax advice regarding your particular circumstances).

What will happen to my QROPS pension fund upon my death?

Typically – and a major benefit of a QROPS – is that the remaining value of the fund is paid
directly to your beneficiaries. Without any liability to the UK Pension Tax at 55% or UK
IHT at 40%.

I may go back to the UK in the future, can I still benefit?

QROPS are for people whose intent is not to return to the UK in the future. However if this is
some time away – say 10 years plus - then you may still want to consider a QROPS as the
benefits of ownership are substantial. Please contact us to discuss your particular circumstances.

T: +852 5307 3732

QROPSEXPERT GUIDE
I have a UK SIPP and I have drawn an income, can I benefit?

A QROPS can be used to receive transfer values from any UK registered pension scheme
whether this is for example a Personal Pension Plan (PPP), a Self Invested Personal Pension Plan
(SIPP), a Small Self Administered Pension Scheme (SASS), or an Occupational Scheme whether
it's a Money Purchase Scheme or a Final Salary Scheme – all can be transferred to a QROPS.

However if the pension scheme benefits have or are already being taken, then it is not possible to
undertake the transfer.

How long will a transfer to a QROPS take?

Most transfers can take 2-3 months. The process is initiated by you completing a letter of
authority enabling us to get the relevant information from your existing pension provider; for
example the current benefits and a transfer value. This is not binding in any way, and will only
allow us to receive the details regarding the pension scheme that you have. However it will allow
us to provide you with individual expert independent advice reflecting your personal individual
circumstances and future plans.

Can I transfer funds and assets in my UK scheme or do I have to liquidate them into cash?

This will depend on the pension provider you have, and the assets that you hold. Generally a
transfer will be quicker if converted into cash. Please contact us to discuss your particular
circumstances.

What are the key facts to look for in a good QROPS?

Strong investor protection from a well established jurisdiction similar to the UK, investment
protection, transparency of charges and tax efficiency.

My pension fund is substantial, what tax implications may there be?

A transfer to a QROPS will be a benefit crystallization and therefore will give rise to a tax charge
if the amount exceeds the lifetime allowance (currently £1.8 million in the 2011 tax year). If
your fund is in excess of this amount then please contact us for specialist advice.

Are there any circumstances in which I shouldn't transfer to a QROPS?

Yes there are, although in most situations we have come across so far, as long as you are a non
UK resident and intend to remain so the benefits to you can be immense.

T: +852 5307 3732

QROPSEXPERT GUIDE
If you have guaranteed annuity rates set many years ago when interest rates were much higher,
this would be one such situation that would need careful consideration and advice.

Can I organize a QROPS myself?

No. QROPS providers will only take pension transfers through their appointed intermediaries.

We are appointed intermediaries; and as such we can provide you with all of the information,
and the independent financial advice that is necessary for you to make an informed choice as to
whether a QROPS is right for you.

We can also take care of all of the paperwork; making the transfer as easy as possible for you.

We trust that you can now see how a QROPS can “Seriously Increase Your Wealth”

• QROPS provide a substantially larger TAX FREE lump sum – to spend or invest as you
wish in your life time.
• They remove “YOUR MONEY” from the punitive UK HMRC tax regime.
• They offer the widest possible investment options.

• On premature death they forward ALL remaining monies TAX FREE; and importantly
outside of your remaining estate; to your dependents, for example your wife and children;
or your chosen charity. This means that the money is forwarded to the right people at the
right time; and that the monies remain outside of your estate with regard to HMRC
calculation of any liability regarding Inheritance Tax; which is currently calculated at a
TAX RATE 40%.
• A QROPS removes “YOUR MONEY” for UK HMRC Pension Tax currently calculated
at a TAX RATE of 55%.
• QROPS are exempt from the UK Lifetime Allowance (the maximum value of the
underlying fund; before tax on any excess becomes liable; currently at a tax rate of
55%).

Next Steps
QROPS transfers are not right for everybody. You cannot transfer a state pension into a QROPS,
nor can you transfer if you have already taken any of the benefits of your pension scheme.

However, for the majority of people a QROPS can be significantly beneficial, especially if
constructed with careful and expert guidance. In most circumstances a QROPS offers you the
opportunity to substantially increase your wealth and income.

All of the expatriates or the people leaving the UK that we and our providers have helped take
control of their pensions; have unique financial and individual personal circumstances. There
may be other personal circumstances, financial assets and liabilities, together with IHT issues to
take into consideration.

How long before the Chancellor realizes how many billions are leaking from UK pensions PLC,
and removes the substantial opportunities that a QROPS can offer YOU, who knows? Will the
availability of QROPS encourage even more affluent people to leave the UK and move abroad?
Probably!

We invite you to take the next step and to contact one of our approved QROPS experts by calling
+852 5307 3732 or send us an email gary.williams@f-p.hk with your contact details and we will
be please to telephone you.

Full information, and independent advice on the QROPS scheme and importantly the jurisdiction
of the QROPS “Trustees” most appropriate to your personal individual circumstances will then
be provided to you. For now you do not need to know the exact value of your pension but please
take the opportunity to find out more – by now we are sure you will agree that it’s in your
interest to do so.
