Hi
I am making changes to my pension. Will my actions result in tax consequences that I have missed?
My plan:
1. I'm in the process of setting up a SIPP
2. I will consolidate proceeds from the sale of a number of Ark Life pensions into the new SIPP
3. I have identified 5 ETF's to invest in. (2 on EURONEXT Paris, one on EURONEXT Amsterdam and one on the LSE).
The size of the fund justifies the additional costs fo going the SIPP route.
Question:
Are funds described as 'pension funds' within Ark Life & Hibernian etc. taxed differently to the ETF's that I intend to buy? Or are they just Unit Trusts with a longer investment horizon?
Do 'pension funds' (such as Ark Lifes 'Pension Managed 2') benefit from more generous tax treatment on income than dividends I will receive on ETF held in a SIPP?
Thanks for your help and sorry for the convoluted question.
Thanks
