Login Register Home Lending Borrowing Sponsors About us News Lending through a pension fund A SIPP (Self invested personal pension) or SSAS (small self administered scheme) is a way that you can control how and where your pension is invested. The more common alternative is to have a managed pension where professional fund managers make all the investment decisions on your behalf. Using a SIPP or SSAS is particularly tax effective for higher rate tax payers because funds transferred to a pension fund immediately attract tax relief at your marginal tax rate. In addition, the interest earned by a SIPP / SSAS is tax free.
