Excepted life assurance schemes

Excepted life schemes are a good way to provide death in service benefits for employees affected by the pension lifetime allowance. They need to be handled correctly though, so you don't face tax charges and Financial Ombudsman complaints.

The benefits of using the PSGS excepted life assurance master trust are clear:

• save tax for an employee’s beneficiaries
• ensure compliance and avoid periodic tax charges and exit tax charges
• manage the risk of making improper decisions
• remove the need to re-establish your excepted life assurance trust every time you change insurer

As well the tax saving for an employee’s beneficiaries, the PSGS Excepted Life Master Trust also helps employers manage the risk of making improper decisions - in the same way as our Group Life Master Trust - and ensure compliance to avoid being faced with periodic tax or exit tax charges.
