    With the increasing cost of living and the fact that we are living longer, a pension and provident fund may not be enough to support you when you stop working.

    The premiums you pay to your Retirement Plan are tax deductible. This means that your premiums reduce the amount of tax you pay, subject to certain limits.

    You need to disclose your contributions to the South African Revenue Services (SARS) when you complete your annual tax return. We will send you a tax certificate every year. You can also ask for your tax certificate at any branch.

    Yes, you are allowed to make one withdrawal per tax year from the “savings component” of your retirement annuity.

    From 1 September 2024, your retirement annuity will consist of a savings component and a retirement component. A third of your contributions will be allocated to the savings component and two thirds to the retirement component. In case of an emergency, you may withdraw from the savings component once a tax year (subject to fees, tax and product rules). The money in the retirement component will be preserved until you retire.

    If you contributed to a Retirement Plan before 1 September 2024, you may also have a vested component, which will be preserved until you retire. You can only access your savings in this component when you retire (from age 55). You may take up to a third as a cash lump sum, and have to use the rest to buy an income annuity that pays you a regular income.
