Please note, if you choose to access your savings through drawdown or cash, this could trigger the Money Purchase

Annual Allowance (MPAA) that would restrict your future tax-free savings unless your total amount is under £10,000.

You’ll need to transfer

out of the scheme,

(except for ‘one-off drawdowns’ to

facilitate payment of a protected sum)

You can take a maximum of three

withdrawals – one per tax year,

at a minimum of £10,000
