What is a Preservation Fund?

It's the destination for your retirement savings when you change jobs or if you are retrenched. You can transfer the money from your company's pension or provident fund to the Old Mutual Preservation Fund and leave it to continue growing. In this way, you should have a healthy sum to invest when you retire.

What's in it for you?
  • It's super cost-effective. The minimum investment amount is R10 000 and you only pay for the unit trusts you choose
  • You can switch funds in your portfolio as and when you need to
  • The earliest you can retire is at age 55
  • Manage your portfolio online - 24/7
  • Access your capital - you can make one full or partial withdrawal before retirement. However, this will incur tax.

    You can transfer a minimum of R10 000.

    None! You pay no tax on transferring to the Preservation Fund, you pay no tax on the growth of your investment and switching funds will not trigger a capital gains event. However, it would be important to note that any withdrawals would be subject to tax.

    No problem. You can make one full or partial withdrawal from the Preservation Fund before you retire. But, there are limitations of the amount you can withdraw before you are taxed.
