Self-Invested Personal Pension (SIPP)
Be invested for the future you want. Save tax-efficiently from as little as £20 a month.
Important information - investment values can go down as well as up, so you may get back less than you invest. Eligibility to invest in a SIPP and tax treatment depends on personal circumstances and all tax rules may change in the future. You cannot normally access money in a SIPP until age 55 (57 from 2028). It's important to understand that pension transfers are a complex area and may not be suitable for everyone.
Look after future you, today
Our flexible, award-winning SIPP is a great way to invest for the future you want. It also comes with significant tax benefits. You choose what to invest in and when. And you can contribute with lump sums or with a regular savings plan.

The minimum age you can normally access your pension savings is currently 55, and is due to rise to 57 on 6 April 2028, unless you have a lower protected pension age. Learn more about the normal minimum pension age.
*The government contributes 20% basic rate tax relief of the total amount invested in your SIPP. To pay in a total of £25 to your SIPP, you only need to contribute £20, and the government will pay the other £5. If you pay income tax at above the basic rate, you can claim even more tax relief through your tax return or by writing to HMRC.

Fidelity will reimburse the exit/redemption fees charged to a customer by their former provider/s when they move their investments (minimum of £100) to Fidelity Personal Investing, up to a maximum amount of £500 per customer.
An exit fee is an administration charge which is imposed by the former provider and arises directly as a result of processing the transfer or re-registration of the customer’s investments to Fidelity. Fidelity will not reimburse the customer for any loss of investment returns, loss of interest, dealing charges, penalties for transferring investments before their maturity dates or any other charges associated with your transfer or re-registration.
Where a re-registration or transfer is not possible and the customer chooses to sell their investments held through another provider and subsequently make new investment/s (minimum £10,000) through Fidelity Personal Investing, Fidelity will cover any account closure fees charged by the customer’s former provider (excluding any dealing charges) of up to £500 per customer. Fidelity will not cover any bid-offer spreads or any capital gains tax liability arising as a result of these transactions.

Products included: ISAs, Investment Accounts, EBS SIPP, Fidelity Personal Pension, Fidelity SIPP, Unit Trusts, OEICs, SICAVs, Exchange Traded Funds, Investment Trusts and Shares.
To qualify for the reimbursement, the fees from the customer’s former provider must have been triggered as a direct result of the transfer or re-registration to Fidelity Personal Investing, or the closure of an account where the customer has subsequently (within 6 months) invested at least £10,000 through Fidelity Personal Investing. If the customer is transferring investments to more than one provider from their former provider at the same time, Fidelity will only reimburse the fees which are incurred as a result of direct transfer or re-registration to Fidelity. Other fees or charges unconnected with the transfer will not be reimbursed.
The completed Exit Fee Reimbursement Form and documentary evidence of the charge will need to be provided in order for the exit fees to be reimbursed to the customer. To claim the reimbursement of any account closure fees, documentary evidence of the closure fee levied will need to be provided to Fidelity, along with confirmation that a minimum of £10,000 has been invested with Fidelity within 6 months of incurring such closure fee.
The documentary evidence referred to above, must be either a copy of the charge confirmation letter from the former provider or a statement showing the charge being deducted.
Payment will be made to the customer by BACS when a bank mandate is held on the account. Alternatively, payment will be made by cheque.

You will not have to pay tax on money while it remains in your pension pot. You will normally only pay tax if you withdraw money from the pension pot. Up to 25% of your pension pot is usually tax-free up to the lump sum allowance, and any further money that is taken will be taxed just like any other earnings.
However, there are two other occasions which may result in paying tax on the savings within your pension pot:
- exceeding your annual allowance (see more details on pension allowances)
- when you die and there is still money remaining in the pension

Self-employed workers have the same right to a pension as those who are employed by a third party.
The State Pension is an obvious example. The rules on eligibility are exactly the same, but where an employed person would have their National Insurance contribution deducted and paid to HMRC by their employer from their gross pay, a self-employed person needs to do it themselves through their tax return.
Similarly, a self-employed person will need to open and make contributions to a pension themselves as there's no employer to take care of this for them. This could be done in a personal pension, or in any savings account, for example a stocks and shares ISA (after all, a pension at its most basic level is any money you have saved for your retirement). Both options offer the same tax efficiencies that an employed person enjoys.
Fidelity offer both a Stocks & Shares ISA and a Self-Invested Personal Pension (SIPP), both of which allow you to invest in a wider range of investments from different providers, including funds from Jupiter, M&G, Fundsmith and Invesco, as well as Fidelity's own range of mutual funds, investment trusts and exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Important notice about the proposed protected age for pension benefits
The minimum age that most customers can access their pension benefits is currently age 55, however, the Government is proposing to increase this to 57 from 6th April 2028. The Government has outlined its proposals in a consultation document which can be found here.
In the consultation the Government proposes that existing pension members, as at 11th February 2021, can have their retirement age of 55 protected for pension benefits in that particular scheme.
When a customer transfers their pension to or from another scheme the current proposals state that the protected retirement age would be lost.
In addition to this, customers who will be 55 after 6th April 2028, and open a pension after the 11th February 2021, could have to wait until they are at least 57 before accessing their pension savings without incurring additional tax charges (unless they are taking their pension due to ill-health).
As this is a consultation, it is not yet certain that the Government will go ahead with its proposals as outlined.

Important notice: The Government is consulting on potential changes to the age you can access your pension.
The minimum age that most customers can access their pension benefits is currently age 55, however, the Government is proposing to increase this to 57 from 6th April 2028. The Government’s consultation document and consultation responses can be found here. Some customers may retain the right to draw benefits before age 57, however, this is dependent on the rules of their scheme as at 11th February 2021. Additionally, when a customer transfers their pension to or from another scheme, individual transfers may not be protected from the increase in the normal minimum pension age.
On the 11 February 2021 the Fidelity SIPP scheme rules stated that scheme members can access their benefits from age 55. Therefore, based on the information provided to date it is our current understanding that our pension would offer a right to access pension benefits at 55. This understanding will be formally reviewed once the full legislation and Government guidance is available.
We will publish further information on our website and in our scheme literature once the Government has published final legislation and guidance.

Cash Back Offer – terms and conditions
This Cash Back Offer (the “Offer”) is available when you apply to transfer your pension(s), ISAs or other investment account assets between 1st November 2021 and midnight on the 28th February 2022.
1. The promoter of this offer is Financial Administration Services Limited (“Fidelity”), Beech Gate, Millfield Lane, Lower Kingswood, Tadworth, Surrey, KT20 6RP.
2. Subject to section 5, the Offer is available to anyone who completes a transfer of their assets from other providers to Fidelity Personal Investing. This offer is not open to those that transfer via an adviser or intermediary. To transfer assets you must submit a correctly completed form online or by paper by 28th February 2022.
3. Cash Back will be paid in the amounts noted in the table in section 9. If you transfer less than £10,000 you will not receive any Cash Back. The minimum transfer value is £1,000 unless the transfer is from another provider and you’re immediately going to start taking money from it, then the minimum is £50,000.
4. The following types of transfer will qualify for the Offer:
a. Cash transfer within ISAs and pension products – If you transfer in cash within ISAs and pensions, the provider you are transferring from will sell your investments and send the proceeds directly to us. We will hold them as cash within your account until you decide what you would like to invest in.
b. Re-registration – this involves a change to the fund or share register to show that Fidelity has taken over the administration of your investment/s. We can re-register your investments if the same investments are available through our Investment Platform, and they are able to be re-registered*. If you hold a particular share class of an investment that we do not offer, we will sell your investment after we re-register it and move the proceeds into a share class that is available on our Investment Platform. This switch can take up to two business days, and your money will not be invested during this time. If you hold an investment that is not available through our Investment Platform or is otherwise unable to be re-registered* it will only be able to be moved to us as a cash transfer (see above) if it is held in a pension or ISA. If the cash transfer is not within a pension or ISA, that amount will not count toward your total for the Offer. A re-registration does not count as a “disposal” for capital gains tax purposes, even if we switch your investment into a different share class. Please note that the minimum SIPP re-registration value is £1,000.

9. The amount of your Cash Back payment will be determined by reference to the “Total Transfer Value” as set out in the table below.

---|---|
£10,000 - £24,999 | £20 |
£25,000-£49,999 | £50 |
£50,000-£99,999 | £100 |
£100,000-£149,999 | £250 |

10. Cash Back payments will be paid to your Cash Management Account (CMA) within 90 days following closure of the Offer (28th February 2022).

The CMA is a separate account in your name that helps manage cash. The Cash Back can be kept in your CMA for fee collection, withdrawn or moved into whichever Fidelity Personal Investing account you choose. If moved into an ISA or SIPP, it will count towards your annual allowance.
11. We ask that the assets you move to us as part of this Offer be held with us for at least 18 months after your Transfer Date and must not be linked to any adviser or intermediary other than a Fidelity adviser during this period. If you transfer or re-register your assets to another provider within this 18-month period, Fidelity reserves the right to reclaim any Cash Back payment that was made to you as part of this Offer. For the avoidance doubt, if during this period you link to a Fidelity adviser and your assets are transferred to Fidelity FundsNetworkTM this does not constitute a transfer to another provider. Fidelity reclaim any Cash Back by withholding an amount prior to transferring or re-registering your assets to another provider. We will not reclaim any Cash Back from assets within a SIPP, other pension or ISA. Withdrawals from your account/s or income payment will not count as transfers for the purposes of this condition and will not result in our reclaiming your cash back payment.
We promote offers on a regular basis. However, it is important that you take enough time to decide whether transferring your investment(s) to us is right for you. If you need more time and wish to qualify for the offer, please wait until the next offer period.

Cash Back Offer – terms and conditions
This Cash Back Offer (the “Offer”) is available when you apply to transfer your pension(s), ISAs or other investment account assets between 26th July 2023 and midnight on the 25th October 2023.
- The promoter of this offer is Financial Administration Services Limited (“Fidelity”), Beech Gate, Millfield Lane, Lower Kingswood, Tadworth, Surrey, KT20 6RP.
- Subject to section 5, the Offer is available to anyone who completes a transfer of their assets from other providers to Fidelity Personal Investing. This offer is not open to those that transfer via an adviser or intermediary. To transfer assets, you must submit a correctly completed form online or by paper by 25th October 2023.
- Cash Back will be paid in the amounts noted in the table in section 9. If you transfer less than £10,000 you will not receive any Cash Back. The minimum transfer value for all products is £100. However, if you are transferring a pension from another provider and you’re immediately going to start taking money from it, known as pension drawdown, the minimum transfer value is £50,000.
- The following types of transfer will qualify for the Offer:
a. Cash transfer within ISAs and pension products – If you transfer in cash within ISAs and pensions, the provider you are transferring from will sell your investments and send the proceeds directly to us. We will hold them as cash within your account until you decide what you would like to invest in.b. Re-registration – With this type of transfer, you can keep the same investments as long as they're available on our platform. Where required, we will work with your existing provider to convert your units into a share class we can support before transferring them to us. Please note that a further conversion may be required to move you into the cheapest available share class on our platform. If a cheaper share class is available, we will also convert any existing holdings of that share class in your account. During this time, you will not be out of the market, and you may temporarily be converted into a share class with higher charges to facilitate the transfer. The share class conversion activity might take a few days and you will probably have a different number of units in the fund after you move as the prices of different share classes of the same fund are normally different.
If you hold an investment in a pension or ISA that is not available through our Investment Platform or is otherwise unable to be re-registered* it will be moved to us as a cash transfer (see above). Any investments held outside of a pension or ISA that cannot be re-registered will not be transferred to us. They will remain with the previous provider and will not count towards your total transfer value for the Offer. A re-registration does not count as a “disposal” for capital gains tax purposes, even if we switch your investment into a different share class. Please note that the minimum SIPP re-registration value is £100.
*Re-registration is not available for some products on the Fidelity Investment Platform. For example, a number of offshore funds cannot be re-registered. You can check what assets are available on our platform here
