SSAS
What is a SSAS?
A Small Self Administered Scheme (SSAS) is a company pension scheme, the members of which are usually directors and key employees of the sponsoring employer. A SSAS, whilst subject to the same rules relating to contributions and benefits as a normal company arrangement, has considerably greater flexibility and control over the scheme's investment policies and its underlying assets. In view of the wide investment powers, the Inland Revenue require a Pensioneer Trustee to oversee the scheme to ensure that it continues to invest within Inland Revenue guidelines.
Other requirements of a SSAS are that only one scheme is permitted per employer, normally the scheme should have less than 12 members and there can be limits on the amount of investment.
