The ‘Four Box Approach’
for a tax efficient retirement
Tax efficient income planning in retirement
The Budget 19th March 2014Summary of some announcements, with a 12 week discussion period:
• Increase in ISA allowance to £15,000 (1st July 2014), with ability to hold all in cash or stocks and shares = ‘New ISA’
• Chancellor announced “the most radical change to taxation of pensions since 1921”. Ability to withdraw money from their pension funds on a more flexible basis. This will fundamentally change the way people manage their money in retirement.
• Other changes in pension death benefit, trivial commutation, drawdown limits.
• The 10% ‘starting rate’ on savings income abolished. • Also announced “free, impartial, face to face advice” for
retirees.
Using income streams together with the available tax allowances….
ISA
Pension
Bonds (OnshoreOr Offshore)
Managing your tax risk
Tax Bands 2015/16 Order of taxation1.Earned income2.Interest/Savings3.Dividends4.Life policy gainsOnshore Bond gains are always treated as the top slice of income, after earned income, savings income and dividends.Offshore Bond gains are treated as savings income, and are therefore taxed after earned income, but before dividends.
Example, Brian (aged 60) - 2015/16 tax year
• He retires and wants £65,000 p.a. income, with reduced tax liability
• He has an investment portfolio including the “4 investment boxes”
• His assets include the following:• ISAs £150,000• OEIC/Share portfolio £100,000 (Current dividend 3%pa
net)• SIPP £300,000• Offshore bond £300,000 (Originally £200,000 in
2004)Amount Tax rate Tax payable
Personal allowance £10,500 0% £ NIL
Basic rate band £31,785 20% £6,357
Higher rate band £22,715 40% £9,086
Totals £65,000 23.8% £15,443
Example, Brian (aged 60) - 2015/16 tax year Brian’s adviser suggests he takes ‘income’ as follows :
SIPP (PCLS & income) £ 18,000ISA withdrawals £ 7,000 OEICs encashed (gain of £5,000) £ 19,000Dividends (net of 10% dividend tax) £ 3,000Bond (segment encashment) £ 18,000
Total£65,000
Example, Brian (aged 60) - 2015/16 tax yearBrian’s tax calculation in 2014/15 :
Current value £300,000 (100 segments)
£18,000 required = 6 segments encashed
Segment value £3,000Less original investment £2,000Taxable amount per segment £1,000
£1,000 x 6 segments = Total of £6,000 taxable
Bond encashment calculation:
Example, Brian (aged 60) - 2015/16 tax year Brian’s adviser suggests he takes ‘income’ as follows :

Planning Considerations for IHT ISAs: can’t be assigned and will be included in the estate for IHT
purpose OEICs/Shares:
• No CGT on death, but value included in the estate for IHT purposes
• Can be assigned/gifted, but this is a disposal for CGT and a gift for IHT
SIPP Lump sum death benefits: • Uncrystallised funds – pre 75, no tax• Crystallised funds - pre 75, taxed at 55% • Post 75 – taxed at 55% on all funds, including unused PCLS
Offshore Bond: can be assigned without creating a chargeable event, but treated as a transfer of value for IHT purposes
The 4 Box Investment Approach can also take into account IHT liabilities
The value of investments may fall as well as rise. Past performance is not a guide to future performance and may not be repeated.
