Section 32 buy-out bond

A section 32 buy-out bond is a pension designed to allow pension benefits to be transferred from another scheme whilst preserving some benefits under the old tax and allowance rules rules.

Pension transfers are available to anyone who has retained benefit in a pension scheme; for example, an employee who leaves service after an employer has discontinued a pension scheme, or a self employed person transferring benefits from a retired annuity policy.

The value of the preserved benefit from the old pension arrangement is transferred into an individual Pension Transfer Plan to provide a choice of retirement benefits at retirement. The plan is on the policyholder's own name and is completely independent of any employer

Where the transferring scheme was contracted out of the SERPS or S2P on a defined benefits basis and this guarantee is required to continue under the Pension Transfer Plan, the buyout option will guarantee to provide at least the guaranteed minimum pension (GMP).
