Are SJP's High Fees Draining Your Retirement Fund?
How much can I save by moving my UK SJP Pension to an EU Pension?
There will be multiple savings available, but it is not possible to give a headline monetary value due to the unique nature of each and every pension.
Yes, owning a European Pension will definitely be cheaper due to SJP’s costs exceeding industry standards. SJP also tie the pension-holder into investments through their own funds where 85% of these funds are underperforming. Switch to a European Pension and have access to a multitude of independent global investment options where better returns are available.
SJP charge a 5% entry fee every time they make a change to an investment which they can do without any input or knowledge or confirmation from the pension holder. So, in the first year alone a pension holder could save 5% of the whole amount invested and in subsequent years 5% on any changes made – on a €100,000 pension fund this is a staggering €5,000 in the first 12 months!
SJP do not consider the 5% entry fee when disclosing their fees and they report this annually as a mere transaction fee only when asked. Whilst this could be one of the many reasons why SJP are under scrutinization by the FCA, the entry fee is a fee paid to a different section of the SJP group of companies.
Don't let SJP's high fees and underperforming funds drain your retirement savings. Take control of your pension today and invest in your future with expert guidance and a portfolio built for success.
